Greetings from sunny Nha Trang.

Can anyone give me an idea of what I should pay for the above, 94lbs lift, in good condition and little used? Please also let me know of anything important I should be aware of before buying?

Any advice is much appreciated and thank you for taking the time to reply.

Have to agree with the above 94lb wing? Why? I have never needed a wing that size even with dives using 5 cylinders. I would be closely looking at what you need out a wing before buying that one used or new.
 
I dive with twin 130's and two stages and I have plenty of lift with a 55lb wing.

At 94lbs its not a wing it's a lift bag.
 
The 94lb wings is awesome if you are planning on re-floating an oil tanker from the seabed. Is not that great for scuba diving.

Can you please give us more information on the diving you plan to do and your gear configuration? The members would be in a better position to guide you on the right size wing.
 
I would not pay a penny for anything that comes from OMS.

Obviously a bad experience with OMS, I've had nothing but good experiences with OMS.

Never saw a wing with 94lbs lift in 32 years of diving. Are you sure you're not calculating 2 bladders at 47 lbs lift? You only use one bladder with the second one being a backup. That thing would be huge as a single bladder 94 lbs lift, especially if it is not bungied. Any pictures?
 
Ok, that's sorted then, I'll give it a miss. Thank you all for your advice. I was planning to get a Tec set up together and try something new.
