There's nothing better, especially for around here.

First choice - rent until you know what you want. That way you don't
end up purchasing what someone else tells you is the right gear for
you, only to find out it really isn't what you want and you either end
up living with it, or essentially giving it away and spending more
money.

Second choice - used.

Third choice (and now my personal bias is going to show) -

Hello all,
I am new to the sport of SCUBA, and I am looking for a good
inexpensive(relatively speaking) BCD. At this point most of my diving
will consist of shore dives in the New England area.

any suggestions?

thanks
