Your policy is great. Telling the students that they can use the gear but it needs to be checked out will instill confidence in their decision to do their cert through you. I understand shops wanting to make a sale but they also have to have certified divers that may want to do more courses so they may get another chance to sell gear. I understand EskimoBluDay’s feeling of being pressured into buying gear that you don’t need. I don’t dive with a computer and it hasn’t kept me from diving they way I want to dive. I have way more confidence in my gear then several of my buddies that have the latest and greatest.
