i had heard about this place but could never log on to the website..i could not believe their prices..pretty low but can anyone tell me about the quality of their drysuits?thanks.
Definitely not nice. When I bought my drysuit online, I ordered the two sizes I thought I might be, tried them on, and returned the non-fitting suit for a refund. This way you get to try two different suits, and it only costs you the shipping for the second suit in order to get the right fit.MaresMan1 once bubbled...
You can (although not nice) find the DS that fits you at your local LDS and the buy it from one of the online shops (you didn't hear that from me ). Dry suits should be fitted, so try one on.
Agreed, if you know you won't be doing business with the local shop.Scubaroo wrote...
Trying suits on in a diveshop and then going ahead and buying online is very poor form.
Not at all - the shop has received compensation for the information you've gathered by renting the suits. But walking into a shop, being fitted for a suit, and then saying "I'll think about it" before rushing home to order off the web is just wrong.metridium once bubbled...
Of course you could always rent a few suits to get a proper feel for your size and what you want. Nothing unethical about that, is there?
