Germany is great for used Poseidon regs

Germany is very good also for SP regs. See this auction I am following (for one of my PhD students, who is searching for a nice reg set):
SCUBAPRO MK 20 + G250 + R190 Octopus + Finimeter + Inflatorschlauch | eBay

Very true,

I don’t know how the prices climb on eBay. I usually use eBay-Kleinanzeigen so I have the price straight... I’m not fond of tracking bids.

i’ve heard those rumors on and off for years. I’d be willing to put $50 down that wont hapoen.

Maybe I should have put a ";-)" in my post to avoid confusing people in the south ......

I know "someone" who has plenty of MK10s and G250ies for sale. ;-)

I remember a nonscientific test done by Steve Berman, Tyler Moon, Ted Cole, and perhaps Jarrod Jablonski- it was done at the Ginnie Springs trailer, and beer may have been involved. They took a set of doubles and equalized the tanks, then isolated them by closing the isolator valve. They removed the bottom port plug from a MK10 and MK20, and placed them on each tank valve orifice. They opened both valves rapidly and simultaneously. The side with MK10 drained the tank faster than the MK20.

1) I wonder what even the losing time was?
2) Is it even possible to breathe anywhere close to that fast?

2- no it is literally not possible to breathe anywhere near that much gas. The MK2 is capable of something like 100cfm and I think the MK25 is capable of something asinine like 300cfm

I really thought you were being for real. I have had several people actually give me dates for when they “heard” sp was discontinuing the parts. So it was easy to take at face value.

and as a real southerner I take offense that you assumed I was from the south because my avatar says Florida. No real southerner claims Florida as the south.

After much consideration, and a couple of views on ebay, I think I should tell you that MK10/G250's are horrible regs and you shouldn't buy them.
