New Does Berry Scuba still exist?
They used to have a couple of stores in the south suburbs and in Lombard near Yorktown mall. If they do, then it might be tough to compete against them. There was a place on 59 one half mile north of I-88 that went out of business several years ago. I took lessons from a guy that had a shop behind the Glen theater in Glen Ellyn back when I was young.

Never saw a scuba shop in Naperville, but with Naperville and Aurora combining for over 1/4 million people, that's a lot of potential customers.

Yep, they're still around.

I dunno. I've been to two of their stores and I was thoroughly not impressed. Most of the stores I've been to in Austin and NJ seemed much better in terms of selection and service...

Nope. That one is still there. I was in that shop in October looking for a work-for-free job. Offered my services completely free. Got turned down. He said he didn't need any help. Whatever...

That's rather my exact point. Lots and lots and lots of people here. There's gotta be a market somewhere!
