Actually you have the option of ordering from numerous on-line retailers. They are legitimate and reputable businesses which buy via back channels, but they are NOT authorized dealers. Leisure Pro and Scuba Toys are some of the names, there are many others. You loose the manufactures warrenties in some cases (such a Aqualung or ScubaPro) and have to trust the retailer to cover you through their warrenty. It is a risk, but a reasonable risk for many.
ScubaToys are authorized dealers for everything they sell. They don't do grey market.
