My Bare Nexgen zipper broke this weekend so I decided to buy a new drysuit. The Nexgen isn't flashy but it's kept me warm and dry for 8 years and I'm going to go out and buy the same model. I considered repairing the zipper but realized it's $300 to do the work and I'm still left with an old suit. The seals are still decent but it's probably only a matter of time before something else goes, which is the reason I'm opting to buy new. What should I do with the old suit?
Repair the zipper and sell it for cheap?
Cannibalize it for parts?
Chuck it?
Another option?
