Wet Suits lose a lot of their value pretty quick......I pick them up at garage sales for $.50-$25 often......I have 2 I am going to put on EBay now.....

I have a full farmer john, top and bottoms, long sleeve, full length, 3.5mm I picked up almost new off of ebay, shipped to my home for $30.00....

Sizes run small, I normally wear L, but in a wetsuit I need XXL. I always suggest male friends to buy 2 sizes larger then they normally wear for everything else...

I picked up a full lady's size large for .50 cents at a garage sale, sold it on EBay for $35.....

Its a shame how fast these wet suits shrink! I don't know how much you'd get for it used I just know you should not just rely on getting a new O'neil suit. Check out the dive shops to try them on as there seems to be no size standard.

I have a closet full of wetsuits from years of surfing, new cost was 200-300. I lucky to get 50 - 75 bucks when I sell a used one. If a suit is more than 3-4 years old the material is probably obsolete.

If you can afford it,get a dry suit.They are usually 2 sizes bigger.I got a used dry suit off craigslist for $100.You can wear your street clothes or thermal underwear under them and stay alot warmer than a wet suit in freezing temps.
