Money wasted but not guna sell!

im sure many east coast skiiers spend hundreds of dollars on new ski equipment including me and are selling it. i find that dumb. first off, you cant sell what u paid for so your losing money in the long run, and you can always use it next year! its not like winters are guna get worse n worse. i understand being discouraged because no snow is coming soon and the conditions arnt great but thats not a reason just to dish out everything you bought. who knows maybe in a week an unexpected snow storms piles us 5 feet of snow. then what? u got no more gear and half the money you started with.
