Looking for a complete rig

Recommended Posts

If you buy from out-of-state, ask you local rigger or DZO to recommend a rigger near the seller. Riggers often act as escrow for parachute sales.

Typically, the rigger does a full inspection on the harness/container, reserve canopy, AAD and main canopy and charges you the usual rate for his/her work ($100 to $150). He/she delivers a written inspection report to both parties. If the rigger recommends minor repairs, just pay them. Once the money has arrived, he/she delivers the rig to the new owner. The new owner gets an airworthy rig with a fresh repack.

I have been involved in dozens of these transactions and inspected hundreds of bits of second-hand gear when I worked at Square One, etc.
