I think it's probably not the best idea. However, if you are set on it then
you need to go to Protech. Last I knew, they were the only place that had
any kit of significance for sale. Also, I think they are in the process of
moving their op to other quarters, so, well, I guess the answer is I dunno
what they are carrying for stock. If they have some, maybe they are
dealable. Best of luck.

What's the duty going to run you? Also, I'm willing to bet that, due
to transportation costs, the gear will be more expensive. And, if
you're buying there, they know they have a captive market.

Hi all,

As some of you (might) know, I am on the way to AMbergris Caye.

A thought crossed my mind today about buying equipment there.

I don't know if its possible, but what do you guys think
about buying equipment in a dive shop there?

I know, more or less the prices of kit back home, and the
brands and models available, so I can take them to local
repair places(I know I should support my local shop, but if there
is a great bargain..!).

Are the shops there "amenable to some bargaining?

Any advice/points would be appreciated!

thanks
bernard
