I found the name of the mail order place in Georia:

	Sub-Aqua Specialties
	2236 Bemis Road
	Valdosta, Ga 31601

	1-800-841-4443 (US Watts)
	1-800-342-7156 (GA Watts)

When I was buying scuba gear I used this place and saved $$$.
I was able to wait until they had a special. I ordered one of 
their package deals which had a tank, back-pack and regulator 
for far below their individual prices combined.
As I remember, they were expanding into electronics.
Ask them to put you on their mailing list and to send you the 
current price list. 

One word of warning. If you live in an area where you can count the 
dive shops on one hand, they might not like it when the guy
who was asking all those questions last week about scuba gear comes
in with a completly brand new outfit and ask to have his tanks filled.
You are buying from a national retailer who does not need the profit
margin your local dive shop needs to stay afloat. (no pun intended)
