Hi everyone,
I recently acquired a used Apeks regulator set off of craigslist. It is an older TX-50 model and hasn't been serviced for 5 years, but it is otherwise in good shape. I had them checked out and connected to air and there seems to be no major issues. I took them to a dive shop near my area to ask about servicing and was quoted $250 for the first, second, and octo ($100 labour plus $150 parts). I contacted a few other local shops, and the price runs between $250-290. That price seems exhobitant, especially if they are to be serviced every year (costs more than what I bought them for!). I was wondering if there were any cheaper options to get them serviced around the Vancouver area, or if there was somewhere I could ship them to.
Thanks
