What are the pros & cons buying used vs new? The unit I’m looking at for next year (Kiss Orca Spirit) doesn’t come up used that often. I’ve also been told there have been some changes so don’t buy a used unit more than a year or two old. I am open to used, depending on what’s available.
I always buy new vehicles so I don’t end up with someone else’s issues. Does the same hold true for CCR?
And to answer the inevitable questions about why this unit - lighter weight for my knees. Backmount much better for boat wreck diving. Several local divers have them and I got to go all over a unit this weekend. My knees are fine with the weight (steel frame, with additional lead the diver needed). Good local/regional community of Kiss divers. Instructor agrees this unit is a good choice for me.
