Finding a single gara 3000

Through some unfortunate events, I lost one of my gara 3000s! I was wondering if anyone has any experience with getting single bi-fins? Is my option to purchase them over ebay or on these forums? or does some retailer sell individuals? I think lost fins is relatively common.. but I'm not sure what I can do from here on out. Any info is appreciated!

Thank you

Re: Finding a single gara 3000

I lost one of imne Sporasub Elite and at the shop they told me that it is't worth buying only one for 2 reasons.
1. The cost of one is the same as the pair
2. The other fin will be totally different that one you have got. If you buy a new one it will be stiff as you were at the beggining and if you buy used one..well someone could swim twice as much as you do and you will have 2 different fins.
My suggestion buy a new pair. I did so..and now i'm a proud owner of Gara 3000ld

lol I can't say I have. I'd be willing to go halfsies on a new pair with him though :-P so when you lose a fin, pretty much your only option is to purchase a new pair?

Re: Finding a single gara 3000

damn! I'm an 8/9 Euro 42/43 and I wear a 2mm sock with it comfortably.. a 10/11 44/45 is probably too large =\ what a bummer. thanks so much for the offer though!

Re: Finding a single gara 3000

Decided to sell this Gara 3000 LD. If anyone is interested in purchasing a lightly used SINGLE Gara 3000 LD, size 8/9 USA or 42/43, I will ship internationally but will have to get the price. Asking 45 USD. Ships from Southern California (San Diego).

please email me: npremyod@ucsd.edu
