Poseidon Xstream Deep service

[Homunculus]

hey all,
I have a couple of questions with regards to purchasing and servicing of Poseidon Xstream Deep regulator. I live and dive (well, starting to) in Boston area and I haven't found any Poseidon dealers (those who sell the regs) but there are some places who service these regs. I'm seriously considering buying a new regulator on the web. The price is very reasonable (~$450). I've heard that one should not buy life-supporting equipment off the net but I'm wondering what would you do in this situation? I personally don't see the problem with the internet as long as I can service the reg. Also, does anyone know any trusted places around Boston who service Poseidon regs.
thank you

(800) 344-4458 is the US distributor up in NH, they should be able to fix you up with a competent service facility. Just let them know that you prefer competence over convenience.
With the advent of the flat rate Priority Mail shipping boxes ($7.70) your nearest shop can be no further than your local post office.
