Equipment - selection and prices

[DandyDon]

We don't all live in the US and from the look of things the person asking lives in Northern Europe, so who knows how prices compare to his area.

Good point. Leisure Pro, ScubaToys and other will ship to Europe if there are not good dive shops locally, but you really need to try on a wet suit. Eh, my LDS likes selling shorties as they are easy to fit, but I like full protection. Ok, so who sells suits on Coz for how much?

Roughly how much more expensive is it than US?
The prices here are for most things twice or more than what they are in the states.
But there are taxes for importing + high shipping costs etc.

An example:
Scubapro 5mm Everflex ladies costs 430$.
How much would this cost in Cozumel or Playa Del Carmen?

One tip might to be to buy from leisurepro and ship to somebody in the states.Have them UPS to europe and you can save a bundle.I myself would be happy to help you if you want.

typically you will pay 20-40% more for the same items here in Cozumel. Prodive has the best selection of gear on teh island. That being said you can get fair prices at ScubaRepair. You won't find the big brand names there. Just good working gear at reasonable prices.
