When registering the items for sale, we are facing the same costs for the office material and the volunteer effort, regardless of the value of the item
and whether it is sold or not; when there are many unsold items, or few sold items are of low total value —
we are incurring a loss. Charging the upfront fee is aimed to encourage the sellers to avoid registering many items which are unlikely to be sold.
Cash is preferred, MasterCard and Visa are accepted (no American Express, sorry). There is an ATM at the TD Canada Trust on the corner of Renforth Drive and Rathburn Road, a 5 minutes walk from the Etobicoke Olympium.
All paying visitors get a ballot that is submitted for the draw. You do not have to stick around to wait for the prizes to be drawn — if you are not there,
we will contact you based on the contact info that you fill in, and you will be able claim your prize on Thursdays by the end of May.
OUE may decide to sell raffle tickets for some special prizes. If so, these tickets are available at the gear drop off night and the Swap.
Scuba Swap is the event dedicated to the diving community and all the vendors are directly involved in the Scuba industry.
OUE generally notifies the stores which were present in previous Swaps.
The space is alloted to the vendors who confirm their participation while the spots are available.
If you are a dive store or an organization directly related to diving, and you would like to learn more about future Swaps -
feel free to contact us.
All winners were announced as they were drawn at the Scuba Swap. We will not be posting their names on our website, as it would be a violation of our privacy policy: those filling in a ballot did not grant us the permission to have their name published.
The winners who did not pick up their door prize at the event have been notified by e-mail or phone, and they can pick it up at the Etobicoke Olympium, from 9:30 to 10:30, on the pool deck at the deep end, Thursday evenings until the end of May.
