Has anyone had any experience ordering from them and shipping to USA? They got a housing for a pretty nice price that I'm interested but am always hesitant with a sites I'm unfamiliar with.
Is buying from divingexpress.com legit?

They are fine to deal with. The only issue is that sometimes if you buy a housing say a Sea and Sea from outside the US you might not get dealer service available.

That's what I'm trying to figure out. I'd be saving almost $250 on a $1500 Nauticam housing which is quite a nice chunk off

Maybe, ask about the US warranty and service.

Ok will do, thanks for your help @scubadada. And also @bvanant for confirming the site

It is interesting that you are saving so much, most of the prices I see on the site are the same as in the U.S.

Assume for a moment that it is totally legit, don't forget the shipping costs and when it comes into the US, there will likely be duty on it.
As I see it, you are trying to balance an equation with a $250 savings from a company you are not sure of the legitimacy of on one side and possibly no warranty, unknown shipping charges, and duty fees on the other side.
Ultimately, only you will know if the potential can of worms that might be opened is worth more or less than $250.
