Well, my plan for now is to nicely and tactfully let the lds know I am going to buy 2 sets of fins, masks, snorkels and boots from them and ask what kind of a deal they will make me. If needed I'll let them know what prices I've found on the internet (actual prices + shipping to actually get it to my house) and ask them to come as close as possible. I know they don't get the "volume" discounts of a leisure pro so I just want a little compromise. If they don't then I'll probably still buy maybe my snorkels, boots and maybe even fins from them (depending on which model I like) as a good will gesture. Something to at least give us a good base for doing business in the future. When more equipment is needed I'll pay their price as long as its reasonably competitive and only ask for compromise when I want something they have but their difference is significantly higher. They seem to have a good attitude so far. I'll work with them as much as reasonably possible as long as they work with me and provide the service I expect. Does this sound reasonable? Any input appreciated. Thanks!

IMHO, In any type of business, I would rather have 100 customers
spend $50 and be happy rather than 10 customers spending $500 and be "somewhat" happy. The 100 customers would probably become repeat customers and spend "more" money..................
