    I have a whites fusion with bullet skin drysuit (blue/black) that should fit you well. I am 6'3 225, but I found it just a tiny bit short in the torso, so it would likely fit you perfect. It has the sitech replaceable silicone neck and wrist seals (oval rings) and a pee valve. Feet are socks, so use whatever boots over it you like. It works fine, and I planned on keeping it for a spare, but I really haven't had any use for it since I got my new one - and I suspect I wouldn't have it with me anyhow if I really had a problem with my main suit. How much are you looking to spend?

    umm, what's a good price? For some, that's $200, for others, that's $1500 for a $3500 suit.

    Well I was banking on less than $1000 but both of your examples are technically good prices and I would consider the higher side as well depending on the suit.

    Makes sense. You could get a brand new Seaskin for $1k. I don't have one but those that do seem to like them.
    I hope that's the right company.

    I was digging through the forum awhile back and saw FW recommend the Seaskins and looked into them and talked the people and decided that's what I was probably going to do. Before I did though I wanted to look around and see if I could find a used suit locally to maybe just dive for awhile so I didn't have to wait around for 6-12wks.

    sure. I have a DUI TLS350 that's too small for me but probably too big for you. I'm sure there are some out there. Good luck in finding one!

    I have a CF200 that needs new seals and a zipper. OPV valve needs to be replaced, too. 75$
