Russian space suits

When the SuitSat deal was going on, I remember reading that the Russians usually dump their old suits out the hatch to let them burn up in re-entry.

I was wondering... with the Russians so open to commercialization, why don't they start bringing them back and selling them? I'm sure they could probably sell them for a few hundred thousand dollars to collectors, and I bet that wold more than cover the cost of keeping it on board and saving space on the return Soyuz.
