I've been offered a pair of last season's B2's, my size with bindings etc. I've alway hired in the past but will be going 3 times this year. What do you think a fair price to offer would be? Good mate so neither of us want to lose but I'm not desperate to own skis as hiring has always worked for me. Thoughts you wisenesses

martyngb, A couple of thoughts.... Do you really WANT these skis.....and...would this be a ski that you would pay full price for new. Have you skied the B2 already?

Take a look at what similar skis have fetched on ebay in completed items search maybe? I've just bought a pair of last years C9's off ebay for £120. They have had one week of use - including a service so ready to go. B2's look to be a bit more expensive - last few pairs I can see sold on their range from £165-£190.
Alternatively my insurer offers 70% of cost for second season skis if they are lost/stolen- again thats a nice independant way to work out a price?
Or suggest an early xmas pressie would be much appreciated HTH aj xx

snowbunny, I skied the B2s last year for 9 days, really liked them. My first thought was that if I was to buy a ski it would be B2s. Further thoughts are that I should maybe try some other models etc. Although only last years they will have had nearly 40 days of skiing.........
Dilemmas!!

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

martyngb, You are failing to exhibit sufficient signs of lust for these particular skis. This years B2's are different again, so I would suggest that you pass, on the offer, especially given the amount of use they have had

I'd say £120-£150 is a fair price if you know the guys not been hard on them as they're ski that always sells & you'd easily pay £200 for a new pair of last year's model without bindings. If you know he's been dropping cliffs, bashing rocks & stumps then adjust your offer downwards.
