From nitroxjim: Yes, I did buy my complete gear at the shop, but I do not regret that purchase. I am completely satisfied with the SSI program and continue shopping at the same dive shop.

That’s the goal SSI is hoping to achieve with their program, to leave the customer/diver feeling they got the best value for their dollars so they’re satisfied. So, you’re happy and will continue to dive with them, they’re happy because they’re selling you gear, it’s a win-win for everybody. The ’scuba-uniform’ concept is the key to this system working. Again, I have no issue with a dive shop selling gear, that’s why they exist!
