A basic wax & sharpen for skis is normally about £15-£20 in the UK. Don't know about blades - maybe a bit cheaper?

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

jase2472, if you were local to me (Nottingham) I'd charge £10 to wax (only) a pair of blades & do the two pairs for £18. A wax & edge would be £15 per pair or the two pairs for £27.

The Skee-tex website gives some prices, might be useful for a comparison http://www.skee-tex.co.uk/work.htm
I'm not on commission folks, honest, its just that looking at their website yesterday following my visit things are kind of fresh in my mind.

Cheap as chips, Do it yourself. I've got 10 pairs, between myself, wife & son. Get on a basic course & get the kit. the finished job is far better than the sort of basic service you get in Slush & Rubble and the likes. However, I do take them into a really good ski shop in resort, talk to the technician & ask him to do a soft race tune, will cost about 50 euros, but it feels like your skiing on new skiis again.
