Not sure if this is intended to be as snarky as it sounds but to me, it was a mutually beneficial situation. A local small business gained a customer and I got quality gear with all of my questions answered and a bunch of freebies and discounts thrown in, not to mention total peace of mind. I look at it as the cost of entry to scuba because that is what I wanted, all of my own stuff. If I were to do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing.

I rented for just over a year before I bought a set of regs.....I've got to say though, that using a reg that a smoker had very obviously rented before me certainly accelerated my decision to buy.

I'm one of those people who, on land, go by the principle that ingesting the odd cooties here and there help my body resist maladies by building up antibodies. It doesn't seem to hurt me, as I seem to never get sick. I don't see where its all that much different when it comes to scuba gear.
All of this pales into insignificance when I consider the various and frequently intense intimacies I've shared with strange women in every sense of that word. From a strictly hygienic perspective, better a thousand times a nicely rinsed regulator than some of the places and things ...
So, you are saying it is OK as long as the regulator is also treated with alcohol?
