looking for a place to buy a reasonably priced Alu BP (equivalent of combro in Alu would be great) and not willing to get ripped off by Halcyon et al. Second hand would be just fine if you have one.

Thanks
Philip

The OMS one's are quite nice.  Camband slots as well.

Paid £50 for mine at the NEC diveshow.  Not quite combro price, but definitely not Halcyon price.  I did ask the price on the Halcyon store and then ran weeping to the OMS one

Hi Daz, I know what you mean re doing a runner, although Halcyon have gone down in price with the £/$ exchange rate. So theyr'e no longer immensely totally overpriced, only obscenely so...

I think I've found a source for an Alu plate for £50 + harness bits I need for £10. And I'm told the plate is anodized in blue (??) which would nicely match my single tank wing in Royal Blue (HeHe I'll be setting a new colour trend)

will let you know when I get it Friday.
