[porsche060]

To get a mask/fin/snorkel/bootie what should I expect to pay?

Is this a good deal?

Man, that’s a tough decision. One being $74.95 and the other one being $74.95. Such a tough decision. Just joking of course.

The important thing is do they fit you? If they don’t it doesn’t matter if the price is $1.00 or $1,000.00. If they don’t fit you have a nice wall hanger so what would you pay for it now that it has become modern art?

Buying stuff on line is ok but first you need to try the item to see if that model and style will fit and work for you. Just like clothing dive gear sizes vary greatly. An XL with one company may be a XXL or an L with another. Do your homework first.

Porsche060,

Gary has given some sage advice!

Fit is everything in a mask and fin.

And, from an ethical viewpoint (this may raise some hackles, but so be it), I don't feel it's fair for a new diver to go into a local dive shop, try on stuff until he finds something that fits and then purchase from an on-line supplier without first giving the local dive shop a chance to come to an agreeable price for the items.

Dont cheap out on the mask and fins!! The zoom package is nice, and I believe Scubatoys will exchange the mask if it doesnt fit with shipping both ways. Dont ask me how they make profit...

We lose money on each sale, but make it up in volume.

I know how you do it, by trickery!! You know, On most websites "Confirm" means look at the order and confirm the order is correct. On Scubatoys however, it means you just placed your order!!! I made a $700 click on accident last night. LOL!!!

Oh well, wanted the camera anyhow... :14:
