Dive Gear Express has the best return policy anywhere. You can return anything, any time, for a refund. If it's more than 30 days or if it's used you only get store credit, but it's full credit of what you paid.
You could buy a BP/W from them, use it for a year, decide you don't like it, and return it for a credit of the full price paid. Now, if you abuse their policy like that, I imagine you'll get blacklisted from buying from them before too long. But, that IS their return policy and I can say from experience that they are serious about it (taking returns, that is).
If you ordered their single tank BP/W package, you'll be fine. It's good quality. You probably really did not need to order an extra aluminum plate. A SS plate can be used just fine, even in warm water. In fact, if you're in warm water and diving an AL80, you'll probably want the SS plate for that. An SS plate is only going to have you significantly overweight if you're in warm water and diving a steel tank. But even then, it's only 4 - 5 # heavier than an AL plate. So, you're 4 - 5 # overweighted? Not that big a deal at all.
