ScubaSky:I think some dive shops find it hard when "Customers" Come in to their store with a list of Items they found on an Internet site and want to get the proper size / Fit...
It's not right for a diver to go into a shop (with no intention of purchasing) only to try gear on for fit/size - If I go into a shop because I need to size it, I ask the price first and make sure I am willing to pay that for the convenience of trying it on. If I'm not, then I don't take any more time of the employee. But either way they have the chance to "sell" me merchandise
On the other hand I will take a list in and ask how close they can come to competing with it - usually they tell me to just get it online (though sometimes that answer takes a couple of weeks )
