Not exactly DIR but for the US crew

Hi,

Just saw this on another board and thought someone in the US might be able to grab some bargain bits.

Allsorts of stuff on here.

Some guy liquidating a shop he's bought out.

HTH

Surprised you haven't bought some stock then Phill....

I looked at that last night, mostly 10 yr old junk. Lots of AL80's though if youre looking for stage bottles.

Divingniknaks · January 27th, 2006, 12:42 AM

Ahhh OK then, didn;t look too closely but thought it might be some use.

Maybe not.

Cheers though for pointing out if you'd had a study of what was there.

GLOCK , you're a cheeky sod

Besides the shipping costs would've killed it, don't for one minute think I didn't consider it :D

How did your wetsuit end up on some American liquidation site Phill?

Now you know why wetsuits aren't DIR :D

Oh dear, let's tread carefully folks. Apologies to all (H in particular) if I'm overreacting here. It's hard to maintain a sense of humour when you feel like theres a tinderbox open, so... sorry if I've just had a humour bypass Howard, but I hope you'll forgive me if I presume to try to be a calming influence:

Wetsuits very popular (I've got two and like 'em) yada do a great job when used in appropriate diving yada yes, bouyancy and insulation reduces with increased depth so in some people's judgement suboptimal for certain types of diving and for those who prefer, where practical and appropriate, to use the same kit for every dive they'll do (and usually have a good reason to want to do things that way) yada yada please let's try not to inadvertantly have a pop at wetsuits whether we meant to or not... and please let's dial back the 'that's not DIR' stuff until we've earned the right (and respect of others) to do so.

I'd rather get along with everyone than have another ruck about an offhand funny comment.

It was a joke between me and Phill FFS. I shall be in my 3mm shortie at Vobster on Sunday :D

Divingniknaks · January 27th, 2006, 06:22 PM

:D It may take me some time but I'll think of a way to get you for that one.

Although Pink is in, just ask Clare :p
