Hi all,
I'm a newby to the board and fair newby to diving as well. I've never owned my own gear before and am in the process of piecing together two full sets for myself and boyfriend who just got his certification this past weekend. Anyone familiar enough with AL/TN dive shops (I'm in Northern AL) to recommend one for gear check out? The one my boyfriend just certified at quoted me aprox $25 + any parts for a reg. check out and 2 1/2 weeks send out time (they don't sell the brand I just bought used).
The price seems very reasonable if they don't "make up" part requirements but the 2 1/2 weeks doesn't thrill me during prime use time. Is this unavoidable? So far we have one BC (US Tech), two 1st/2nd stage sets (Mares) and one octo (also Mares) to check out. It would really be great to learn of a place that can turn them around inside a week
TIA for your pointers on this :-D
