Take a look at the last couple pics... you can even see that they’re crooked to one direction.

DensecloudsI'd be demanding a new pair of skis.
SEABURNDON'T BE THAT CUSTOMER.
altasupportYou can be that guy without being a dick. My first year working at a ski shop one of the managers made this mistake, they didn't buy the skis with us but we still gave them a brand new ski. If you remount it and it's less than 2cm from the previous mount then you probably won't notice.
That said, if I were you I would insist on a new ski. Don't insult the employees, don't raise your voice, just plant your feet and don't take no for an answer.
Denseclouds^^THIS
You don't have to go all MortMcfly on us and get your grandma to investigate/badmouth the brand. Just politely let them know where they were at fault with your purchased item (skis)
SessionHonestly, you bought Vishnu's. it's not like you're trying to ski with any precision. You won't even notice.
DIRTYBUBBLElol did you get them mounted at Willis?
skiermaneveryone hates you.

LonelyI thought we were done with this
lil.Boyebin them.
Rum_HamI’d be more worried about the fact that you have two completely different toe peices. Pretty sure they don’t even have the same stack height
cheerioCan't believe no one mentioned this yet
If you notice it at all you'll notice the different toe pieces way more than the mount I'd say
Rum_HamThey have different toe elasticities as well. Definitely sketch.
LUPTONyou should be thankful the shop even decided to mount them. I've been turned away for way way less.
skiermanI fucking hate people like you. You will never notice the difference, it will not affect your impeccable skiing abilities (seriously who the fuck do you think you are?), stop being a bitch, everyone hates you.
teamSESHLe edgy 17 year old 4chan poster with no friends... Does that describe you?

SofaKingSickhaha okay, super duper hardcore shittalker ski bum guy, duly noted...
OP, i don't blame you for being put off but ive had a mount that was just like that and i promise you it was 100% fine
also aren't those different toe pieces (like actually, functionally different)? if so i feel like you might be lucky they mounted them at all?
skiermanLOL he's probably the most legit skier to ever grace this website with his presence... aside from Candide, Tanner and myself.
weastcoastYo, everyone: they’re the same toe piece pretty much. One is from a Pivot WTR, and one is just a normal Pivot toe piece. Both have same stack height I’m pretty sure. If I notice anything I will just get the other toe piece and put it on (I tried to mix colors, looks cool.)
SofaKingSickuhh let's not get carried away...
but yes he posts some super legit stuff, which makes it a shame that half his posts are some sort of indecipherable hardo ski guy limerick. it's a blast to the past on here when everyone tried to be as vague and condescending as possible in their posts. youre similar, you have tons of knowledge but opt to just post douchey nonsense most of the time. but i guess not everyone can be esteemed NS scholars like me

BrilliantSeaAs a former racer(I'm 51 and still go fast), I would notice this. A couple MM off can grow to a centimeter or more at the tip, giving you a different angle and turn initiation. Ski mounts need to be spot on imo.
