Trailboss and AZ will not comment about this :wink: :lol: . Don't want to get you in trouble.

As for REI's sale...got a nice pair of expedition mitts, regularly $89.00, bought them new for $29.00. A steal!

well im glad that someonelse took advantage of that sale. i still cant believe that i got those volkls for 400 bucks. ski market had them on "sale" for 680. and to finish my new ski package i got a pair of nordica beast 10's, they are very cool and comfy.

Great skis and boots...heard a lot of good things about both.

Ska' Market is a rip off...went in there to look at boots and the kid did everything he could to try to sell me junk I said I did not want. Prices are kind of :-? as well.

I hate that place, also most people who work there have no idea what they are talking about and just try to force you to buy any random junk

i got my boots at a place in westford and they told me that they had to re-mount a set of bindings. turns out some lady bought skis at ski market and not only did they mount the bindings in the wrong location, but the right binding was mounted at a different spot on the ski than where the left binding was mounted. they had to re-drill, needless to say that woman wasnt happy.
oh, one other note about skimarket...i had to rent skis earlier this year and thought id save time and rent at "SM" instead of having my friends wait for me at the mountain. so, i go to put my gear on and turns out, i had 2 right boots!!! i was so pissed!!!

Ski Market is definitely a crap-shoot. Had a guy at work who was just starting to get back into skiing and went there and got horrendous service.

I, on the other hand knowing what to look for got a pair of Salomon Crossmax w/S912 bindings for $468. And the guy I dealt with was definitely up to date on info. But, many of the Ski Markets (or many of employees at each) are the worst places to go.

Best service in NE Mass or S NH would be at Ski Haus (Wilmington better for skis) and Buchickas (Salem, NH) who may be the best boot fitters in the area.

Just my .02
