Equipment Prices

[Pierre Farrugia]

Hello all,
I was checking equipment prices here in Malta and I think equpment here is cheaper and the most unbelievable that I think even Apex is cheaper from here, what do you think?
eg. Apex ATX200 1st + 2nd Stage         Lm160 Sterling 245
   Apex ATX100 1st + 2nd plus TX40 oct Lm160 Sterling 245
   Scubapro MK25 1st with S600 2nd     Lm145 Sterling 225
   Scubapro MK2  1st with R380 2nd     Lm 70 Sterling 107

Also the Apex regs may get a discount on them as well, what do you think are prices over there?

Pierre, the dive store on the way to Niagara Falls, was selling ATX 200 for &#36740 regular price Discounted he would let them go for &#36690. That's only the 1st and second stage. One has to add 15% tax on top. I had seen the TX50 nitrox clean for about &#36375. That was at the show. I never really paid much attention for the ScubaPro.

Some comparison below

Price    Tax     Total   Lm    STG<>
&#36740     &#36111    &#36851    218   410
&#36690     &#36103    &#36793    195   394
&#36375     &#3656     &#36431    105   213

Don't forget to check Gozo at St Andrew's. I was told he had complete packages of Apex regs at competitive pricing. Apparently US Divers / Spiro / technisub is getting Apex and Seaquest on side of the Atlantic. Apex is relatively new for Canada (3 Years may be), but they have a very good reputation especially with tech divers.
