Thanks, dicks like you are the reason ski shops keep going out of business, and the reason that ski shops won't stock freeskiing stuff. "I'll just the shop then get it online for $10 less" is the worst thing ever to happen to ski retail. Douchebag.
i definately see your side but if its drastically cheaper, and you're short on cash, you gotta go the online way. But if its not much of a difference, support your local shop and buy from them.
