Very old skis I think. Not too sure but you may be able to get much more modern skis for that price. I picked up some 6 yr old Atomic slalom race skis for £75.
Have a read of this thread, been asked before...... http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewtopic.php?t=58825

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

In fact, you can often get brand new skis from a few years ago for about £150

TBH if you are asking the question you shouldn't buy them.
But one one quick, easy test is check completed listings on ebay.
I see there is a pair here in vgc with a starting bid of £10 that attracted no bids.

Yeah.... I agree, I looked at a few postings and sales and would say that they are best consigned to the bin.

Karlos1986,
1. I bet they're more used than described
2. I would be worried about the bindings and I don't think you'll find replacements easily as they (iirc) had a rather unique design
3. The Pilot range was a little like the BBRs, Salomon trying to push the envelope of ski/binding design, not terribly successfully.

Karlos1986,
I bought a pair of scream pilot 10's on fleebay for dryslope use cost me £8 ( very good condition ) but collected as not too far from me so £65 is way! overpriced imo. If they are in great condition maybe around £30 max posted, if poor then def no more than £10-£15 posted. There is a lot better out there now but they are fine as a dryslope ski or for really poor snow conditions as they still perform ok, but should be cheap enough you won't mind binning them if they get wrecked, and you could probably resell the bindings
The bindings are non std mounting so a great point to haggle the price as they will be very hard to replace ( you would probably have to buy another pair of the skis to get the bindings).

I have a set of X-screams you can have for nowt if you collect them?
Given to me by a neighbor that was given a load of ex-hire skis for some reason or another. I never got round to using them, and have some new skis. Not sure on length or condition but i can have a look for you.
Better that they're used than not! If you fancy them I'm in Leicester.
