if you really spent 6000 on that gear originally, you should be reporting a robbery to your local police station

I guess I should clarify, I live in Canada, and it was bought from a dive shop at retail value, so I guess it is what it is, like I said, looking to sell, if the prices are off for resale market than make a reasonable offer!

Thanks!

that is still 4400+ usd

at full current retail:

aqualung core supreme: 475
aqualung core octo: 220
pro hd bc: 500
7mm wetsuit: 435
i550 computer: 580
total: 2210

that still doesn't get you anywhere close to 4400 unless if you are saying hood/gloves/boots/fins and a luggage bag are worth 2 grand

From IDC in Vancouver:

Core LX Supreme $540 List $600
Core octo $256 List $284
Pro HD BCD $495 List $550
i550 $855 List $950
Bare 7mm Velocity $430 (not enough info to really say on the wetsuit though - there are wide variations in price between models)

So using the same subset, $2,576 CAD. If he did pay full list as suggested, $2,814 CAD based on IDC's information.

Still suggestive of over pricing. Not bought locally in Ottawa according to the OP, so no idea as to the general reputation of the shop where purchased.

To the OP, some unsolicited advice: no matter what you might be selling, what you paid for it is not relevant. Used market pricing is all that matters. Potential buyers do not care how much of a bath you may or may not be taking. Might sound harsh, but you know this is true.

By posting that irrelevant information, your simple for sale post has resulted in unnecessary derailment of your thread. If it were me, I would self report this post to the mods to see if they would be willing to delete it so you can start over.

Your asking prices aren't horrible, particularly if in new condition.

Alternatively, there is some excellent local diving here. If you are interested, PM me and I will get you hooked up with a great group of local divers I hit the St. Lawrence with each summer. We do a lot of no cost shore dives / drift dives on the old seaway locks, as well as some weekend charters to some of the excellent wrecks in the river. Morrison's Quarry just over the river in Quebec is another available dive site that is even closer.
