ebay is awesome (random re me)
i'm going powder skiing later this month. i have crappy barely hyperbolic skis that i've had for almost as long as i've been skiing. so i decided i need an upgrade. but skis are expensive!! yeah, unless you buy them on ebay. observe:
- retail price less expected web discount at all these places
- no reserve prices on ebay
some guy will probably end up paying less than me for what i'm buying because it was posted after i bid, but that's cool, i still got a great deal compared to what i would have paid at ski chalet or some web retailer other than ebay.
anyone wanna buy some old skis + bindings? they're in good condition—i just had a great time on them in Snowshoe a month or so ago. $200 plus shipping. i'll post some pics of them sometime soon, i suppose.

They _are_ 185s, so they might not be the best learning skis, but you could try 'em out one time and see how they feel.
