I am wondering what people think used pivot values are. I see that snowcountry is selling gold and naked 15's for around 250-300 usd shipped. I ordered a pair and these are legit. I saw a guy with a white pair of 14s, granted they are discontinued, but hes trying to tell me they are worth 350 bucks. IDK about that, ive got a pair of forza 1.0s that are pretty decent condtion I am keeping them but would never ask for $350 bucks if I were selling them.

They're worth the highest price that the dumbest fuck is willing to pay.

Personally I've release tested enough used pivots that I wouldn't go for it no matter how orange the heel is

I’d pay 200-250$ for clean used pivots

125-200$ for more used depending on the use

50-125$ for bashed pivots for parts etc.

To me the raw 15s are where it's at but I don't understand getting hung up on the color of bindings, I would never pay more for used bindings because of a special color that one guy at my hill will notice.

This. I think this is super fair. I will add that I would only pay $200-$250 for a clean pair of 15s or 18s. I would say that pivot 12s/14s used are worth $200 max if they are in superb condition.

I just bought a pair of new 15s for $250 and a buddy bought 14s for $220 brand new- you just gotta check online and find deals. With that being said, i will never buy a used pivot for more than $250.

Not paying more than $150 used unless they are flawless. Corbetts and bobs have them too cheap throughout the year new.

This is more in line with what I was thinking, I have not seen them in person but I know they aren't new.

I agree with this sentiment, I was more interested in getting some used bindings to have back pocket and more specifically I was after the brake kit but this guy is clearly looking to find someone who is none the wiser.

He has 20-30 pairs of skis for sale, much of which looks to be from a demo fleet so I expected him to be more realistic but whatever, what do I know lol.

Got too caught up in the orange sauce, never again. Had used beat to shit orange fks heels on this cast set up, broke the heel piece and connecting arms clean off the mounting plate mid freeride comp run when landing a big drop at Grand Targheehttps://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch

word yeah I was talking 15/18s. For 12/14s subtract like 50$ from the above.

Looks like you broke the ring on the brakes where the arms connect? Cant really blame the orange dildo for a part that breaks pretty regularly on new pivots. Just get some new brakes and keep running the orange guys
