Cressi Supernova Dry Snorkel

THIS IS A REVIEW OF SWIMOUTLET's 30-DAY RETURN POLICY, NOT the Cressi Supernova Dry Snorkel, which I did not have a chance to try. (Since I've been forced to give the snorkel a rating to publish this review, I've blindly given it a 5/5.) I purchased this snorkel in advance of a trip, far enough in advance so I wouldn't worry that it wouldn't get here in time. I thought I had a mask and fins I could still use to complete the set. When I got the mask and fins out again to pack for the trip, I found that the plastic had degraded such that I couldn't use them. I needed to buy a new set and fast. I was able to get the set but I was too late to return this snorkel.

I understand that businesses like Swim Outlet need policies to manage their inventory in a timely way and accurately track sales in real time. However, I have found that Swim Outlet's restrictive 30-day return policy, particularly for things that may have been purchased as gifts, for a specific occasion, or as equipment that sells year-round to be frustratingly restrictive. I have been a Swim Outlet customer (and member) for nearly 10 years. They provide a marketplace I appreciate and use frequently. I wish they had more flexibility in their return policy. Even extending their window to 45- or 60-days would help allow for many of the problems I've encountered over the years without a significant negative impact to their business. Please consider the needs of your members and review your policy. Thank you.

I replaced an older snorkel which started leaking in the last month or so. its probably 10 years old or more. I tried out the Cressi today and was surprised at how easy and less restrictive it was to breathe through while doing laps. the feature to block water while submerged also seemed to work. I'm liking it so far.
