That seems like pretty smokin deal. Strange thing is I don't think I've ever met anyone who dives on of those units or even seen one at a dive site. I wonder why?

I suspect it's simply because we don't have anybody here marketing them (that I know of, anyway). Optimas aren't rare in Florida.

Nevermind, I reread the post.

The way I'm reading the ad it only says

"The following items are not included with the O2ptima due to individual diver preferences: harness, wing, tanks."

And even that is a quote from the OEM's website

CCRs are a common item to try to fraudulently sell (at least on ebay)

Good point although scammers typically don't post a local phone number.

Speaking of scammers I was bored today so while I was browsing CL I responded to a few of the scam ads. 08 toyota sienna for 5k blah blah. Just to see what stories they're coming up with now. I can't believe people are still falling for the tired old " I'm in the military in Britain and you can buy my car for 5 grand shipped to your doorstep" scam.

Anything I by on CL will be cash on delivery or pickup

I've been hearing about an Op2ima for sale in the seattle area at a great price for a while, now- probably this same unit. It may or may not be a legit deal. But nobody at all is diving one around here- that's a Florida thang. They're popular down there. One large reason I went with a Meg is that the factory is in Centralia. I drove down there to pick mine up after it was built. I like that. Of course, Megsare popular in Australia, Europe, and Asia....because they have great customer service. But....well, honestly, not very many people seem to take the Op2ima seriously. It doesn't seem to be the CCR of choice for serious dives, or divers....outside of Florida. My .02c, take it or leave it.
