Let me start off by saying that I am on very tight budget for diving equipment.
I needed to get a warmer wetsuit, a 3mm just doesnt cut it diving in MN and WI! I had about 250 and figured on a 7mm or a closeout semi dry.
Instead I rolled the dice and bought a used dry suit on Ebay
I know they are always a gamble but the price was too good. I was able to get it for $100. Judging from the answers I got from the seller he had no idea what it was. I figure if its a worst case scenario and needs all the seals and a zipper its still cheaper then a new suit. I also think I may lean to do the seals myself.
In the pictures it shows dry gloves, they are not original. That leads me to belive the suit was in for service once?? If I post a pic can somebody ID what gloves are on the suit??
Keep your fingers crossed! I figure at worst it will give me a cgance to learn how to patch leaks, change seals, zippers, etc.
