News for VR-3 owners

[Scubaroo]

OMS will no longer be dealing with the VR-3 computer - looks like the parent manufacturer is taking over sales and support.

From the OMS website:

From:

John M. Griffiths President
Ocean Management Systems Inc.

To our Dive Retailers and our end user base

I am very sorry to have to send you this news.

OMS and Delta P have agreed that it is in the best interest of the consumer to purchase directly from Delta P.

OMS has been the exclusive distributor of the VR-3 Computer product for a number of years. As most of you are aware any product must be marketed, stocked and supported by the distributor and this costs a tremendous amount of money. This coupled with the recent appreciation of the British Pound has made it unprofitable for OMS to continue distribution of this product.

Therefore by mutual accord Delta P will be offering this product direct to end users, and supporting all repairs, technical support etc.
For further information, please contact Delta P using the details below.

This merely speeds up the process. All service and support had to go through Delta P in London anyway. Delta P gives prompt, reliable customer service. I love my VR3.

How much does a VR-3 goes for these days?

I got my VR3 in Italy, because I didn't know that Delta P sell the VR3 directly. And believe me, if you have to get a new VR3, get it from Delta P store, I pay much more in the dealer... Crazy but true!!!

Last I knew, OMS's price for the OC Trimix was well over $2000 by the time you added the 2 software programs and interface. I was quoted slightly over $1100 for the same thing direct from Delta-P, but they would not sell direct at the time. It's still too expensive IMO for what I need.
