So I went for an allegedly never used but listed under used Aqualung pearl i3 on eBay. By all accounts indeed it appears never used. However, I orally inflated and filled it twice and both times it failed to hold air after some hours. The necessary inflator hose was also not included. So this is simply my experience I’m happy to share as we all learn from one another at all levels and never stop learning.
I’ve reached out for a refund and since it’s eBay I’m not worried about that. I could take it in to service it but after that and possible repairs and the needed hose, I may as well spring for the new one.
I’m out $20 in for return shipping for a great lesson learned so it is a positive experience at the end of the day. I’ll likely be posting again to ask about two different BCD brands I will choose from. Thanks
