Mac's

[wschoel]

Has anyone dealt with Mac's Sports in Clearwater and Tampa? Are they reputable? I took a Nitrox class from them back in October, and they cannot seem to order my Nitrox card from SSI. This seems odd? Any thoughts?

I have not dealt with them, but that is odd you havent received your card yet. What did they say when you called them?

The story keeps changing. "SSI is backed up"..."Paper work lost in the mail"..."Requested the wrong type of card"..."Name misspelled on card so requested re-issue"....Whether true or not, the three month wait for a simple Nitrox C card, does not build my confidence in this shop.

Contact SSI directly, tell them you are booked to go on a dive trip and you need that nitrox card ASAP. Give that a try.

Indeed I did call SSI. They investigated, obtained/found the documentation and mailed the card to my house - got it within 4 days. SSI = good - Mac's not so much.
