I have never understood this so called "warranties." The parts are covered under warranty, you have to pay for labor? I have never questioned this with any of my LDS's in the past (they need to make money, too), but why is labor not covered under warranty? Could you imagine if you took your car to a dealership for warranty service and was told that only the parts were covered and you would have to pay for the labor?
I normally buy from my LDS, but sometimes the deals online are just too good. I don't have an unlimited bank account and let's face it, DIVING IS EXPENSIVE! I had a BCD I purchased a couple of years ago that the pull cord came off a rear dump. I called the online retailer who contacted the manufacturer who then sent me the part in less than a week. My LDS couldn't have got me the part any faster.
