Kokatat GMER Medium drysuit for cheap
Kokatat GMER Medium drysuit for cheap
Just a heads up if anyone is looking for a good deal on a GMER this guy at Alaska Kayak School is a dealer and often gets cosmetic blems discounted from Kokatat. http://boatertalk.com/gear/gear-detail.php?gid=75415" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I just bought a new GMER from him a couple weeks ago. New with tags and full warranty from Kokatat. Tag from Kokatat says there is a cosmetic blem (wrinkle) on the leg and has a diagram but I cannot even see it. He shipped for free too.

I too contacted him regarding a suit. I spoke with him on the phone and he was very helpful, and can save a person some bucks. Runs an ocean kayaking school up in Alaska, so he should know his drysuits.

I've always heard good things about him. He had a Supernova listed for I think $400 buy it now or make offer. All my offers were automatically rejected but I included a message on the last one and he responded very graciously telling me the least he could take for it and explaining why. I ultimately decided it would be more prudent in the long run to get a GFER and sent him an email in case he was holding the Supernova for me. He responded that I made the right decision and told me to enjoy the swims. He has some good used suits too and backs them up with a very strong personal warranty policy. I was about to order one but I stumbled across a like new one from a private individual and bought it.
You come too.

Yes I spoke with him a couple of times before I bought the suit. Very nice guy. He also has an eBay site and looks like he has listed more new suits. http://www.ebay.com/sch/akkayakschool/m ... pg=&_from=" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Did you have any tax to pay on a suit from these places, save a few bucks and if needed will they help with contacting kokatat if a problem needs to be taken care of?

No tax. This guy is a Kokatat dealer but if you have warranty issues you just go to Kokatat direct. My suit came with all the tags and warranty.

Happy, my post may have confused you a bit. When I referred to his "private warranty" I was only talking about used dry suits. Since those aren't covered under Kokatat's warranty (at least not officially, though I've heard unverified tales of Kokatat honoring their warranty even on suits bought second hand) he provides his own limited warranty on them. Stand up thing to do IMO.ShayA wrote:happy happy happy wrote:Did you have any tax to pay on a suit from these places, save a few bucks and if needed will they help with contacting kokatat if a problem needs to be taken care of?
