Apologies if this is the wrong forum, I tried to look through but really couldn't find a "good" forum to post this in.
Over the last 4 years I've realised that, at least for the time-being, my scuba diving days are over, the cold water of California, and a 3 year old mean I just don't have the time, nor inclination to run out and go diving.
With that said, I have quite a good amount of equipment, none of it brand new, but most of it carefully looked after and used only a few times (regulator is probably the most used at approx 130 dives).
To my mind, there are two questions, 1. Is it worth even trying to sell stuff that has not recently been inspected? I have a HP Steel 100 tank (almost 10 years since it was hydro'd), BC and 2 regulators (2 Zeagle Tech 50D's, one with only a couple of dives on it) all of that inspected maybe 5 years ago (approx). 2. If it is, what are prices that are good to ask for?
My primary concern would be (believe it or not) selling stuff on that is faulty, or selling it on to someone who will just make assumptions and use it without doing the necessary, but in the same breath, I really don't want to have to try to find somewhere to Hyrdo a tank/inspect gear?
Any information anyone can provide, gratefully recieved.
