DIVE EQUIPMENT & GEAR
Gone are the days when we'd source a few hard hat diving helmets on our buying trips. 

Occasionally we receive dive equipment from private collections here in the U.S.;
see below and remember if it is available, you'll see "available" under the picture;
 otherwise, it has been sold.
This site is updated daily. Please call or email for pricing.

Sold items will remain pictured to give an idea of the range of styles and types of pieces we have carried previously
and what we continue to search for during our salvage buying trips.
