Im looking to upgrade to a new marker fairly soon, but am torn between the DM 15 or GEO 3.5 
What you think?

DM 15 or GEO 3.5?

I think they both shoot very nicely indeed, and they both feel good in the hands. However, two factors would swing it for me...
1 Re-sales. The Geo will hold it's price well, whereas the DM will drop like a stone if it follows the pattern of previous DMs
2 Aftersales. Planet RULE in after sales. Based in the UK, very helpful and all round excellent. Not had to use DYEs aftersales, but when I went to Campaign last year, PE had a big etch tent, lots of product on display and you could walk up and they'd take a look at your marker straight off the bat. Dye had a tent with no product on display and no one out front to talk to, and seemed just to be dealing with their sponsored teams...

Cheers. The DM 15s seemed to have dropped in price quite a bit. But I do like the look of the geo's!! Decisions decisions
The DM15s really are no hassle at all to maintain.
If you happen to be at CPPS this weekend and want to try one, come and find any of the Nexus guys and we'll happily oblige

Won't be at CPPS this weekend, cheers for the offer though!
I have an etek 2 at the moment, and was thinking the DM would make a change to the eclipse

The DM15s are remarkably nice and now they are nowhere near as hilariously priced as they used to be. On the other hand I do think that as awesome as the 3.5 is, it's a bit on the steep side of things.
If someone handed me either I'd be happy but given an open choice I'd go with the Geo. I'm not much of a fan of the new style Dye regs to take apart and they aren't as hardy when it comes to variable climates and if you aren't 100% on maintenance.
