What ski were you looking for? I've seen some amazing deals for brand new, for $300 for the Volkl Bridge, smokin ski, just fat enough to float. Narrow enough for an all around. For that price forget someones wrecks, get new! Also saw some new in box LOOK PX 12s $99.99. Some really great prices

Thanks I will give it a go here just dont want to overwhelm anyone. Tried to post some on TGR.com and was absolutly abused! Won't go back on there again. Being a woman I don't particularly care for anyone to swear at me or ask me to suck anything. :snow:

Well, it really depends on what your trying to sell. Please, no ski totes. :-D

If they're really old strait skis, I wouldn't expect much interest.

Nope nothing older than 08, and new in plastic. Nothing drilled or used. All brand new. I just want to be sure that I follow proticol, and don't overstep my bounds. The owner of the website called me, Todd Jones, and kept appoligizing for the behavior of some of the young guys. My answer was, so no wonder the industry is in the crapper! :snow:

Not trying to scare you off Alpinezone. But when someone with a handful of posts starts trying to sell stuff people get real pissed. Search for any thread started by hurtmyknee, comedic gold. But if you are selling what you described above at a good price you might garner some instant love around here. :)

With that said, welcome!

Skis forsale!

Grassi,

Thank you so much for the words of wisdom. Example of what I have for sale is, 08/09 Dynastar Huge Trouble for $300, brand new still in plastic, or The Volkl Bridge new this year in plastic 185 for $300, I also have the last years Marker 20.0 comp $149.99. Should I just jump in or wait? I stand behind everything that I have. Sold a pair of Rossi S7 Barras for $400 to a guy from TGR, and now he's comming from Maine to ski with my hubby and I. So I can't be to bad! And I hate paying the fees to ebay and paypal. Same company double dipping, $38.00 for selling a $350 pair of skis, and I still paid the shipping. :snow:

Sounds like you have some decent merch to unload Go for it! And if anyone gives you flax tell 'em I sent you. :lol:

Here is a prime example of what not to do...

We're still trying to figure out the "real" part. I'm lobbying for an admin to do an IP check. Regardless, funny material!

If you have them hosted somewhere already, you can just surround the url with [ i m g ] [ / i m g ] (remove the spaces I put in there)

Or, if you don't, just choose the little paperclip icon in the text editor, and upload the image as an attachment to the message.

Thank you Charron! Love your photo too! I will use the paper clip thing, it seems a little less frightening. :snow:
