Ok, I'm trying again and making a more detailed thread this time.  I'm selling my 08/09 Armada JJ's.  The length is 185 and they are mounted with Marker Griffon bindings.  They have only seen three days and are in excellent condition.  No shots, no edge problems, nothing.  These skis are practically new. 

I have looked online and a new pair of JJ's (this seasons model) are going for 675 on backcountry.com.  That's without bindings. 

I AM LOOKING FOR $600 OBO.  If you think you have a reasonable bid, please let me know.

I live in Colorado Springs, so if you would like to come see them or buy them in person, that is great!  I have posted pics below.  I am new to selling stuff on NS, but i've bought several items over the last year and I am very easy to deal with.

these bindings are practically brand new and sell for over 200.  i'm thinkin at least 550 shipped for skis and bindings. i'm selling these because i tore my acl and mcl and am still not fully recovered and because i'm getting married soon and am low on money for the wedding

I've seen these skis, they are practically out of the wrapper.  The kid is as legit as it comes too, I and many others on here can vouch for the guy.

Some help for you Jake:

-BSL is an acronym for Boot Sole Length.  It's that little number that says xxxmm on the inside heel of your boots.  People want to know if their boots are similar enough in size to adjust the bindings, or if they will need a remount.  My 28.5 Salomon SPKs are a 327 BSL, so I assume yours are very close to that but you should check it and post it up on here.

-These skis are mounted at recommended if I remember correctly, but you should check that out as well.  Just put your boot in the ski and check to see if the little arrow on the arch of your boot lines up with the arrow on the sidewall of the ski.  That arrow on the boot is the midsole (the middle of the boot itself), and the arrow on the sidewall is the recommended mounting point.

-Karma and post count don't mean shit even though there are 12 year olds on here who think they do.  Ignore them because their parents probably aren't going to buy them a 4th pair of skis anyway.  $550 for that setup is beyond reasonable, and if anyone challenges that statement, they can go find another like new pair with Griffons and wide brakes for cheaper.

Good luck selling these bad boys Jake!  Wanna ski on Monday?  I know you are in old man mode with that brace, but you could keep me company!

Man, I miss Colorado Springs. And CO in general. haha

Anyway, good luck here man! I'd do $300 for the skis easy. But you could probably get more than that. Peace

I also live here in the Springs and would be interested in your skis. However, I would prefer to use these with AT boots, which presents a problem with the Griffon I believe (would be happy to get feedback on this). If my hunch is correct, would you consider selling the skis without the bindings? No shipping issues here - I can pick them up here in town.

I live in the Springs as well and would be interested in the skis. Not sure about the bindings as I prefer to ski in AT boots, and don't think the Griffon is compatible. Do you know about this, and if there is a compatibility issue, would you sell the skis separately?
