I am looking for slightly used equipment for my daughter. She needs a woman's small BC. I don't want to spend a fortune until she is older and more experienced.
Take a look online at some of the sales and closeouts from some of the discount shops. Leisure Pro currently has several closeouts under $200. One that I think looks interesting is an XS brand BCD with a list price of $300, normal LP price of $249, now on sale as a closeout for $162. I hope this helps. You also might want to start another thread in the equipment forum and ask which BCD's are comfortable for a young woman.

My daughter started at 10, and I found a used DiveRite transpac on ebay for $50, she wore size M, I did the same for my 14yo son I got him a size L. Both continue to wear them almost 2 yrs later since they are very adjustable.
