One would think so but it's not a high purchase price but the high cost of running them and the inconvenience of having to store and regularly change large high-pressure gas bottles.
As far as I am aware helium goes for around $300 per bottle in the US. Being a welder by trade I estimate that one bottle would probably last a day or so (working on 8hrs per day) and may be a lot less.
The bottles are about 5ft tall weigh 165lbs and the colour is legally prescribed. Over here helium bottles are brown.
