suppliers of second hand drysuits?

are there any dive shops who do a good range of second hand drysuits? or a
"economical" supplier of new suits.

Dryduck springs to mind, does anyone have any experience of their product?

Dorset Diving had some cheapies in last time I was there. Looked a
little thin, but good value for money.

O'Three often have bargians on suits, and some 2nd hand. Give them a
call and see what they currently have - http://www.othree.co.uk/

Yep I have had two dri duck suits since I started diving. The take a
lot of abuse (required for me kit) and are good value for money. If
you look at how long a dri duck will last and the cost, their cost per
dive must be pretty low.

PS I have no commercial connection with dri-duck.

Go-dive have a clearout sale going on at the moment. Possibly some bargains
to be had.

www.godive.net

Try Divers Warehouse Bradford West Yorkshire,tel 01274 307555
They sometimes have some 2nd hand suits in , although their prices are so
keen that you can get a new for not that much more.

Why buy a sceond hand dry suit. I have found that when buying Dry Suits it
is best to buy new and have it custom fit ,,, otherwise they might leak a
bit.

True , some manufacturers do have a rack of suits returned for obscure
reasons , don't fit , wrong colour etc it may be worth asking the
likes of Norther Diver etc if they have any "Seconds" you can try.

Also if anyone out there knows the suit company that will sell you a
new suit then replace it every year for £150, PLEASE let me know.
It may be BS but..
