I was certified about 3 months ago and have absolutely gone head over heels for this sport, I enjoy it more that just about anything I can think of. I have had tried to support my the LDS where I was certified up until last weekend when I decided to complete my gear (BC, Reg and computer) the would not match the prices of another LDS on this stuff and it was a savings of over $300!
Although I saved some cash I still felt a bit guilty about going elsewhere for my gear after all this shop introduced me to diving! So I swung by the shop today to buy a floating dive flag for a lake dive I am doing tomorrow I knew the flag / buoy had an inflated price but I figured it would be just enough to cover the cost of the brick and mortar storefront and decided to do what I thought the right thing was and again support my LDS. I made my purchase and went about my business for the day.
I just looked the flag / buoy up at leisurepro and its $19.95 compared to the $60.00 I paid at the shop. At this point I cant help but feel completely ripped off, however as a person of reason I wanted to get fellow SB readers opinion on this before I cut all ties with the LDS that certified me.
Link to the Flag / Buoy I bought:

I will not name the LDS where I got the flag out of respect for them.
Your opinions are appreciated
