yea i thought it seemed to be a little bit pricey myself. ill give u guys the full breakdown of the place. by the way, for those who asked...i live in west chester, pa which is a little west philadelphia.
250 includes:
instruction
use of rental equipment during pool sessions
use of pool
$70 textbook
$200 certification weekend includes
registration with padi or nauilectures and guided dives
use of rental gear including computer and wetsuit
NOT included in the 200 fee:
23$ entrance (to fthe springs) fee
food
its not that i dont have the money but that in addition to needing to buy the regular stuff (plus a weight belt and weights) it just seems like this is a little bit much.
They should provide weight belt and weights. Everybody that I have dived with does that for free.
Is the $70 text book is included in the 250? If not then seems very expensive compared to others on the board.
I work in a shop not to far from you and that is really close to our price, we are 50 dollars cheaper on the tuition. That is pretty close to what most shops in our area are charging
