Hey everyone,
I'm starting to look for a wetsuit large (or Large tall) wetsuit at least 5mm thick. I don't have any brand preference, so long as the suit is in decent or moderate condition (no holes or tears), and as awful as it's going to sound; on a college student budget if possible (like less than $80-$100). Just want to see if anyone has anything they'd be willing to let go of a little cheaper, nothing fancy of course. Or if anyone has any leads on anything I'd appreciate it!

Try checking with your local dive shop(s) to see if they'd sell you a suit from their rental inventory so you can try it on before you buy it. Fit is always important, but once a suit's condition degrades and starts to lose its thermal protection, an ill-fitting suit is going to be that much more noticeable.
 
Have you considered the NeoSport brand? They can be had new in the price range you looking for and to my knowledge they're manufactured by Henderson. Just more their entry level line. I actually dive a NeoSport Xspan 5mm and so far it's been just fine.
