awap:Why did you select this site for your internet shopping? Unable to compare based on your selections, I used the Mares Proton Ice to compare this site with Scubatoys and Leisurepro with interesting results:

Happy and thorough shopping for real savings!
Mirjana:I've ordered OMS wing from Leisure.pro last December. Because I live in Serbia, I had to organize a friend in US to buy it and transport it here.
In my first dive, the inflator hose fell off???!!!!
Since I'm here, and it cost me alot to ship it back to U.S., I can forget about warranties or any of that "refund for damage" type of thing.
I was very dissapointed, since many divers recommended that I go with Leisure.pro.
divemastergreg:I have no problem with that, fills to off set prices. Loyal customers get alot in return. Atleast mine do. I will go above and beyond for those guys. We give away dive trips, fills, fill cards, and some service stuff we do for free. We are not here to make tons of money. We just want to stay open and be able to dive.
awap:LP probably never touched anything other than the package your wing came in. It is unlikely they would ever catch a manufacturing defect or make any adjustements to something they sold. Blame that on whoever you would like and shop accordingly.
OTOH, reattaching a hose should be fairly easy. If you are talking the corrugated hose, just slip it back on (may need a little soap) and secure with a couple zip ties.
Zdravo, Mirjana!Mirjana:it's not only a hose. it's the entire thing with that plastic "connector" or whatever you call it (excuse my ingorance)....there's nothing you can "zip it" to....
it's difficult to buy gear in this part of the world....especially if you're trying DIR......
what was that about a soap?
The suppplier of paint ball air could supply air for divers as long as the air is checked and has the pressure and volume to keep up. Hey, wait a minute, It would have to be the same kind of compressor the dive store had, to supply all the divers in the area. Remember the Other "LIttle things" insurance and libilities incured suppling divers air. There is an additional charge for "Breathing air" than just working air.bp_968:Heck the local paintball shops filled my 4500psi paintball tanks for 3$ (and thats alot harder on your compressor then 3000psi scuba tanks). Actually if the LDS's went under I am sure the paintball places could make some adjustments to assure quality air and take up the slack for very little expense.
