your best bet would be to watch www.steepandcheap.com they put up items each day for waaaay cheap. that is the only way that u are gonna get new skis under 200. Idk where u would buy used skis if not ebay or here, or another skiing forums. Why wont they buy from here?

I think your going to be hardpressed to find some used gear for that cheap. try gearswap, or here's an idea, make a thread looking for skis your interested in and people who are willing to set up the sale on gearswap for you to buy, that way, it'll cost alittle more money, but you'll be protected from fraud.

take a second and reread your previous post.  im not gonna argue, because it's too late now and everyone and their little cousin's hamster knows, but you should've PM'd the kid or something.

Your parents shouldn't even let you use the internet, it's just another way for Satan to corrupt your soul anyways
