Indyfabz...I hadn't thought about that. I've looked into getting decent, name branded items with a good reputation, at least in my eyes. I'll look at items in stores like MEC or REI and then start hunting for them in classified sites. I try my best to look the items over when I go to pick them up. Hopefully that's enough due diligence for at least one adventure. As I get to know more about what my needs are I'll try to make better decisions.
I'll try to use what I have on my maiden voyage and see if I like it and whether it can do the job. I don't plan on going for a long tour to start; I'll keep it short should something go wrong.
