Just when you thought divers with "Troy Built" stenciled on their tanks, churning up the bottom was about bad as it would get.

Along comes a TOOL that helps those gadget getters and bottom bouncers reduce visability to zero in record time.

I had to read it a couple of times, and yes it is legit! Go figure! The text of the item for sale is as follows....


YOU'RE BIDDING ON A BRAND NEW, NEVER USED, RED SET OF SCUBA SCOOPERS!!! DON'T RUIN YOUR GOOD SCUBA KNIFE DIGGING INTO SAND, MUD, CLAY, AND ROCKS! THESE SCUBA SCOOPERS ARE MADE OF DURABLE PLASTIC AND ARE EXCELLENT FOR DIGGING AND RAKING FOR THOSE UNDERWATER TREASURES! ONE TOOL HAS 3 TEETH FOR RAKING AND CLAWING THROUGH HARD SUBSTANCES, AND THE OTHER ONE IS FOR DIGGING AND SCOOPING. PATENTED GRIP HANDLES PROVIDE YOU WITH THE BEST LEVERAGE FOR YOUR TASK, WHICH INCREASES DIGGING STRENGTH AND DECREASES HAND AND ARM FATIGUE!! BRIGHT COLORS FOR MAXIMUM VISIBILITY. YOU CAN COVER MUCH MORE AREA DIGGING AND RAKING WITH THESE TOOLS THAN YOU CAN WITH A SINGLE HIGH PRICED SCUBA KNIFE. FINALLY, KEEP YOUR KNIFE SHARP BY USING THE RIGHT TOOLS FOR THE JOB! ELIMINATE THE DANGER OF CUTTING YOURSELF, OR YOUR TREASURE, WITH A SHARP SCUBA KNIFE. PERFECT FOR YOU AND YOUR DIVE BUDDY!! THIS IS A VERY NICE SET OF SCUBA SCOOPERS FOR A VERY GOOD PRICE!
