Sometimes you get what you pay for. The DUI drysuits are excellent choices. My wife and I dive the TLS-350s - lightweight, durable, dry quickly.
It's important to know that the mark up on drysuits is 100%. That $2,500 retail suit only cost the dealer $1,250. DUI allows the dealers to offer up to 20% off (larger discounts are frowned upon and may result in the loss of the franchise). You should see what else you can get thrown in for free with your purchase: hood, undergarments, bag, drysuit class, etc.
Never pay retail!!!!!!!!!!!!! Negotiate with the owner.
