I'm a new diver and want to get my own gear (regulator, bcd, computer) eventually. I've been looking at the prices of the gear here where I live (Taiwan), and they're about twice the prices I can get at online stores like leisurepro.com. My instructor also runs the dive shop, and is the importer of Mares in Taiwan. Buying stuff there is sure to have him more on my side. Do you have any advice as to where I should buy my gear? This instructor is retired, but he certified me and a friend for free, which is another factor.
