Go on line to scubatoys and you might find, if you don't go deluxe on every item, that you can get all of your equipment. Scubatoys has closeouts frequently on items that normally sell for hundreds more.
You know, there is this thing, especially on regulators to buy the most expensive, there are very few bad regs made today, get the cheap model and dive the c---p out of it and then keep it for a back up down the road.

You can spend so much on dive gear that you won't have any money left to dive!
If you look at the "mid-range" in any of the major brands' product line, you'll likely get a regulator you'll love.
And a brand I keep trying to steer folks to is Zeagle, for lots of good reasons, but especially the fact that in 2009 the introduced their lastest "flagship" regulator (Flathead 7) to replace the excellent Flathead VI. Flathead VI's can now be bought brand new for a "song" (check ZeagleExpress), about $360 I think.
Also, like Nemrod mentioned, check for closeouts and packages online at Scubatoys, LeisurePro, Dive Sports, etc.... the new Edge "HOG" regulators are something to look at as well as far as "bang for the buck".
You do NOT need to break the bank. I had to fully outfit
five divers when I got back into diving a few years ago.
Note: Computers were the only equipment I did
not purchase initially. I finally broke down and got an air-only computer about a year ago, and a 2nd a couple months ago. They are wonderful to have, but not 100% mandatory.
Best wishes.
