How much should i pay?

[feihlination]

so, a buddy of mine got new alphas for his birthday from the shop he worked during christmas and he lets me ride his ar6s (new price: ~450 €) from last year with last years dynastar px12 (new price: ~150 €) on it.
and he doesnt need these skis now, and i will buy them.

so, how much are they worth? the thing is, the bindings were ripped out two times before they were replaced with the current ones.but i havent had any problems, i guess the new bindings are mounted correctly.

new price was probably 600 €. the top sheets, bases, edges and flex are in good shape for 1 yr old.

so i want you to say what you feel:
1) how much off due to 1 year usage?
2) how much off due to 2 binding remounts? (i wont be able to remount them, since most positions were already used)
he said 100 €, but i feel like that is not enough. hes a nice guy and i dont want to capitalize on that.
any help is greatly appreciated.

i dont know how much it is in euros, but my brother sold his ar6's to someone for 200 canadian. they were in good condition but remounted to center once and about 2 years old. not sure if that helped or not.

I wouldnt pay much more than 100 euros personally. With 2 binding pullouts and px12s i'd say you were pretty likely to either pull out again or snap your skis. Any more mounts will have to be helicoiling old holes. They wont last you much longer than this season before either pullout or snapping so i'd say 100 was fair. (Assuming you ski a fair amount of days and jumps/rails).

I sold my 09 AR6s with Look PX12 Jib bindings (same as the Dynastar PX12) to my cousin for $75 - but that was family. Since $100 is about $140 euros I'd say it actually seems kinda fair (I mean he's giving you a really good deal, but not a your taking advantage deal). Usually after 1 year of skiing on them (depending on how hard they've been skied) the price drops about 50%, so your looking at about 300 euros, but taking 2 binding rip outs that drops the price significantly (cause they probably can only be mounted once more after this mount, if that), so if he was selling them to anyone else (not a friend) he probably sell them for about 150 euros, but since you're a friend he's giving you a nice deal. Makes sense to me.
