I would ask around in Wreck Valley for another LDS that is close to you and see what they have to offer equipment wise. Find equipment that your comfortable with and do a couple dives in it before buying. I bought my main equip from my LDS basically for servicing issues and warranties. Plus they prices weren't to far off from an online shop. Also would depend on the name brands your buying. Not sure where you live, but Dutch Springs in PA is a nice quarry to check equipment out in, and alot of the members here dive there including myself.
