New dive shop in lakeville

[diverguy989]

Hello all,

    I just wanred to chip in my two cents here.  I lived in South Florida for a few years and saw first hand what "BIG" stores like Diver's Direct can do to local shops.  A good friend of mine had a nice shop that he had to close because he just couldn't match their prices.  Also, how many of you remember the commecial that was on recently for the electronics store that had clerks that didn't know what they were selling?  That's how it was with Diver's Direct also.  They had one "Professional" on staff.  The rest were part-timers. 
    I'll leave it there, but please know that this will hurt our local shops, especially those close to Gander.
