Steve, I honestly felt every word you were saying. I guess those of us with truly quality shops and dedicated/knowlegable/genuine people working there are really lucky. Shit, I'll go into the shop, hang out for two hours, talk to the owner about his trip to Utah, check out some gear, just chill. Even if I can't afford this years stuff (I usually can't), I'll buy last years jacket for 50% off, exactly what the shop payed for it. After you've been a customer at a shop for a while (ive been at the same one for 6 years) they hook you up with discounts, free mounts, free repairs/bindings fixes. It's about establishing a relationship with people who will understand when you can't put into words that gnar line you got first tracks on. They will nod their head and say, "I know exactly how you feel." Granted, not everyone has a shop like this, and I by no means buy everything at said shop. I buy a good amount of my stuff online, because I cant spend gobs of money. That being said, I balance between buying from the shop and the internet, because it makes financial snese. If you have a shop like Steve's and mine, support it when you can. If not, i really feel bad for you guys

Exactly what skibum said. IThe margins on the sticker prices of skis, bindings, etc. are pretty good. Volkls with an MSRP of $700 are usually sold for $500-$600 depending on the shop's location and cost the shop about $150-$200.

If I had a shop that quality in my area, I would. The place that's closest to that is a shop that still sees $$$$ signs over your head when you walk in the door, and you can tell that. But they are chill to your face and easygoing about things. I don't go there often though because they are an hour away, and out of the way of anywhere I usually go.

yea GE really sucks, most of the stuff is "like new" and "slightly used," although it is still really cheap, and yea they advertise on sac a lot

o i think i remember being on that site before, but i forgot the name. something goes up for sale and then after a certain period of time it goes away, and it gives you a timer till the next item come up right?

yeah, its ripcurl. when it ripped last year I used the dakine backpack that comes with the jacket and it did fine so I might switch back to that one.
GE just had some shirt at 79% off but it wasn't expensive to begin with and it's not desirable stuff.
