Description

This article is from the Scuba Diving FAQ, by njs@scifi.maid.com (Nick Simicich) with numerous contributions by others.

05 Where are good sources for mail order equipment? All of the local shops seem to be very expensive.

The purpose of a FAQ is to answer commonly asked questions which have
answers that can be agreed to by the majority of the group. There are
many conflicting opinions on mail order that have little to do with
scuba, and, after long consideration, I felt that it was impossible to
write a mail order question answer that was informative, covered all
views, and which generated more light than heat. I suggest a
scubasearch with:

Subject: mail order

before bringing it up again.

It is my personal opinion that if you are asking this question in this
group that there is a very good chance that you do *not* have enough
knowledge or skill to safely purchase either life support equipment or
equipment ancillary to that, and should reconsider doing so.
