Poster: A snowHead

Hello all, I'm looking at hiring ski equipment next year, the 2 websites I'm looking at are :-
Best Price Ski Rental.com
And
Alpine resorts.com
Anybody used them, are they reliable ?
Thanks

I've used AlpinResorts a several times with no issues. They are just middle men companies. I've not heard of the first one though?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

The other one I have used quite successfully is Snobrainer

Another option that I've had some success with in the last few years is to first get a price off one of the middle-men companies (Alpineresorts.com are good). Then contact the same ski hire place direct saying what price you've had and ask if they can beat it. Often they do, after all they want to cut out the middle men as well.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I've also used AlpinResorts before, and will be using them again this year. A lot comes down to the quality of the local shop though rather than the middle-man broker.

I have just priced up with AlpinResorts and Snobrainer and for where we are going in April and the shop that I wish to use. Using the Snowheads discount code, it comes in slightly cheaper with AlpinResorts, my question is, is there any advantage in booking now (e.g. do prices increase throughout the season?) or should I wait to see if either send me additional discount codes, certainly last season they emailed me discount codes, as a previous customer.
Thanks
