Well I have bought so much off Ebay I can't remember the prices of everything BUT every purchase was a GREAT deal and worked perfectly and I have had absolutely NO complaints about any of the purchases. I realize dive shops try to brain wash people into thinking you will die instantly from purchasing Scuba gear off the internet. But the reality is they talk tons of new students into purchasing brand new gear, and 75% never dive again after certifying. SO there is a large amount of almost new gear to be had at fire sale prices. Heres my list.
Brand new Apeks Black Pearl Regulator I think 475.00
Suunto Cobra W/quick disconnect and hose 450.00
OS Systems XL dry suit with undergarments great condition 205.00
Citizens dive watch "Depth, temp, timer, Beautiful watch!!! 75.00
Henderson Hyperstrech 7mm for wife. I think 175.00 "was listed by a store and they allowed me to send it back twice to get the right size!!!
Henderson XXL 3mm wetsuit for me perfect condition 66.00
Brand New Mares Morphos Pro BCD. 250.00 "sold for 350.00 a few months later"
OS Systems small drysuit with under garments for wife. 125.00 seals needed repair which they listed up front. Did not fit great so kept Undergarments and bag and resold Drysuit for 175.00
and to many smaller items to mention. I love ebay. There is not a day out of the week I do not get online at 6:00am when I get to work and scan the entire days listing of Scuba equipment while things are slow. Best deal I EVER got was finding a full size Scuba Pro dive bag at a thrift store that they priced at 50.00 I bought it just for the bag and did not even look inside it till I got it out of the shop. It had 2 wet suits, a Scuba Pro MK20 with D400 second stage, a Scuba Pro Master Jacket BCD with Air 2 inflator installed, 2 sets of fins and 2 masks. Even after having the regs and air 2 serviced at my LDS I still cleared about 650.00 after dumping everything but the bag on ebay.
