How much for these skis?

[lyndon]

So a friend of mine just got a deal on Head skis, and is getting rid of his Scratch Sprayer FS's(no bindings). I’m planning on buying them from him in the next couple months, however, I am at a complete loss for a price. I'm just wondering what price range, in CAD is reasonable. Remember, the price is for skis only.

Skis have been mounted twice, once at -4 and once at centre.

No edge cracks.

A few deep scratches

A few top sheet chips (no more than 1cm)

Overall pretty good condition.

Bindings NOT included.

[OwenL]

uh nope, dont see how it could be biased, just sayin what i think about those skis, and a price that your looking for

 

[lyndon]

For those who dont know, Im buying the skis from the fellow I am quoting.

 

[OwenL]

hahaha

 

[BigJew]

I'm gonna say 75-100$ considering that they go for 150$ new and they're last years.

 

[skinnylove]

same thoughts here.

 

[dave44]

Yep. $150 new, so this should be no more than maybe 100-110

 

[=nick=]

mounted twice is death...$50...

 

[dave44]

Oh shit. I forgot it was double mounted.

Max $75.

 

[tandan83]

Well, they are double mounted, so that brings their price down considerably. If you can mount in the same holes, that is a huge plus for you. The max most shops will mount is the third time, so you better get it right. Those skis originally retailed for like $450-$550, but with 2 previous mounts, plus base scratches, I wouldn't pay more than $150 us dollars. but the us dollar isn't that far off from the canada dollar now so I'd say not a penny over $175 canadian, but more like $150-175 Canadian. That may seem low, but with the number of mounts, and for Rossi's lower end scratch, I think it's spot on.

 

[tandan83]

thoughts?

 

[dave44]

$150 low? Have you read this thread? They're retailing for $150 brand new right now. That, plus 2 mounts ... I wouldn't go a penny over $80.

[steezyjibber]

75

 

[Lineskiah11]

if it were me i would probably be thinking 75-90. the 2 mounts is kind of a down side but they are in alright shape.

 

[lyndon]

I cant mount in the same holes, as I have px and he has pivots on them at the moment.

Im pretty good friends with the shop manager at my sportcheck, so he doesnt have a problem with mounting a 10th time.

I think that 70 may be too low. 100-120 is the range I'm thinking at the moment.

 

[dave44]

Spend $30 more and get a new pair, without holes, scratches, dings.

 

[lyndon]

I dont really need a new pair or anything like that. Plus, I'm trying to help him out for getting his JO Pros.

 

[=nick=]

dont sacrifice your ski money to help somebody else get skis. dont rip yourself off lyndon, let your friend work for his JO pro's...

 

[OwenL]

haha k well it doesnt matter if i seel them or not, it was just a thaught and i was throwin the price out there

 

[skiRay]

now why cant everyone who is selling sticks provide pics like that
