I'm looking to get into some cold water diving, but don't want to go all out just yet in terms of suit. So I'm looking at a used Bare CD4 Pro Dry crushed neoprene dry suit, around ten years old and only 15 dives on it. It's been stored for some years now and I'd have to buy it sight unseen as the seller lives pretty far from me.
Neck seal is new and wrist seals show no signs of dry rot and zipper works perfectly says the seller.
It would be around 500 bucks, including a Bare Hi-Loft undergarment (which looks to be around 350 new) and dry glove connectors with gloves. Should I take the risk? What's the worst that could happen if the seller can be trusted that it has no punctures, beyond having to replace the seals?
Thanks for any advice!
