I got about $500 over Christmas that I was going to use to buy gear. I'm at a point where I am only lacking my BC, regs setup, and tanks. I'm not worried about getting a tank for now, but problem I have is that I have enough for the MK17/X650 Scubapro combo from my LDS, but not enough for gauges or an octopus. On the other hand, I could buy a package online through LP or others that includes the BC, regs with gauges and octo from genesis, mares, or some other brand.
So the choice is, do I buy a regs that will last me for a while but keep me renting a reg setup because I don't have an octo or gauges and a BC, or do I get the package so I can continue diving until I graduate college and get a job that is more conducive to supporting this addiction.
I could wait until the summer, but I'm taking another class during the spring semester and the hole in my pocket is almost burnt through.
