PST E8's in Canada

[Warren_L]

$700 Cdn for two PST E8-130s? I would think that they'd be close to $450-$500 each. That $700 deal for two might not sound too bad.

I just picked up another E8-130 (in Oregon) for $250. I ordered it about two weeks ago. I'm sorry to hear about the delays up north. We don't appear to have any trouble getting them south of the border.

E8-130's are in at Dan's Dive Shop. Had a couple dozen come in today and they are selling fast. 4 sets sold today.

Hmm...Maybe Dan will sell em for 700 Canuck a pair. I doubt it since the price today was close to $500 a piece.

 

[Warren_L]

Yep, my thoughts exactly.

Anyone know the scoop on the supposed impending bankruptcy of PST and the impact that is supposed to have on the tanks.

I heard that they will not be allowed to be hydro'd again if PST goes out of biz. Which would give these tanks a shelf life of 5 years.

Any truth in all this? If so I better get a few more dives out of my HP-100's

There was a thread that talked about that. Apparently a rep from PST came on and cleared everything up. Probably nothing more than just rumours. Wouldn't make sense that dealers in Canada would continue to stock more PST tanks and sell them just to have lots of unhappy campers later on.

That's where I read it..On here...I'll have to find that thread and get the update. Thanks W

Yeah, I think it was in the tanks section. Pretty recent too.
