I was wondering if anyone knew of other online stores? I want to get an Aqualung Falco but the shipping from the DB store is just too much and I dont know any other place that carries this mask.

Thanks
 
Mike,

I ended up buying a Cressi-Minima from leisurepro which came out much cheaper.

If you know of a good store let me know anyway because I am looking to buy a Cressi-Gara 3000 LD and the shipping here comes to $56! Some stores have the fins cheap but the shipping really high and others have the fins expensive but the shipping low. It is a lose-lost situation.

BTW I am from Miami too, although I live in Atlanta now (school)
 
excellent! I'll most likely get it from them. That store is close to my parents home too

Well basically they're really afraid of Venezuelan buyers due to the fact that maybe they got ripped off once or twice by the customs or postal service or whatnot, I tried to buy a D3 off them and their response was "We do not ship to venezuela unless the payment is done via bank transfer"... well hooray given the fact that the country is currently under rate control and you can not transfer money internationally!! YAY! rofl :ban
 


no kidding!! rofl rofl

i can see some business developing here for DeeperBlue and Paypal
 
I don't think it's scubastore itself, that doesn't want to send anything to Venezuela unless they have the money first. The banks here (scubastore is based in Spain) don't accept comercial online transactions with Venezuela due to stolen credit card issues. At one point some friends who have an online store, (which is doing well), had their whole payment system shut down due to such a transaction. They were pissed off as hell as the bank violated their contract and didn't give advance notice. At the end they managed to recover but the banks here are very paranoid. So it's from that that the online stores (pretty much against their will) must resort to bank transfers to do business with certain countries.
