I have some recreational gear from them, and its all been ok so far. The octo I got from them breathed wet when it arrived, but it was a 2 minute fix done while sitting on the bottom of the pool. Other than that, out of maybe 6 purchases of varying magnitudes, its been fine. I do patronize a couple of LDS, but I also shop ebay, leisurepro, diveriteexpress, zeagleexpress, scubatoys et al.
