Be sure you take your forum discount and gift certificates into account when making your final decision. The free weights may or may not represent the best value there.
I would also take another look at the Brigade if you like the Stilleto that much. More D-rings, heavier duty harness, more pocket space, and the starting price is less. I mean if you take the 10%, and $60.00 GC discount off of a Brigade you are getting it for around $300.00.

I'm not saying don't get the Stilleto, and I'm not saying don't support your local shop. Just don't let them close you on a sale that's not the best deal because of your excitement over the BCD.

Chewy, it's great that you can try on the different BCs before you decide, and congrats on finding one that fits you like a glove. If you like the price at your LDS, go for it, otherwise Creggur has good advice about double checking with ScubaToys to make sure you are getting a good deal.

Example in my case would be my Zena, which was listed at over $700 at my LDS (and they would throw in a "free" $25 knife), or buy from ScubaToys for just over $300.

Excellent choice! I have the same BC, I agree with Creggur and Zenagirl, double check with ScubaToys and don't let the free weights be the deciding factor. I am absolutely sure you will enjoy this BC!

I thought you were already sold on getting that brigade package? What is going on? Pull the trigger already.
