I just got a brand new Aqualung Aqua-flex 7mm and LOVE IT!!
My last suit was O'Neill which was great too, but the Aqualung slides on a little easier and isn't as tight around the neck. I know you said you can't really try them on but it really makes a difference.
I actually first bought a wet-suit online that I never wore once after I received it and tried it on - soooo uncomfortable (it was O'Neill with hood attached)... I don't think it's so much the price because sometimes you are paying for the name but it is more about the comfort and fit.
