I recently received my brochure from getboards to find that the trouble makers are listed at $349.99 when they are listed for $499.99 on their website. They must honor this price as listed.. so order now through the brochure to receive the discount

guys... i seriously think you should stop ordering your skis via internet... just go to you local shop and help em make a lil money, of course, if getboards is an actual shop that sells skis via its website, its legit... but i think that online retail websites are shitty for the industry

I'm sorry, I'm a poor college student. I enjoy not paying $600+ for skis and bindings. If you can afford to pay that and help the shop thats fine. $400 is a much better price in my mind. With the extra $200 I can buy half of the books I need for a semester. Isn't that sweet.

dude. i work a local shop and i get the pro form price. i help kids out all the time by mounting their shit and tuning it for free most of the time. they usually throw me like 5 bucks for my trouble. i support the sport more than any of you wannabe sponsored skiers that only think uncommercialized companies are the best

Are you trying to say that because I ride rossignol skis, that people who ride 4frnt, Armada, Line, or Liberty, are more-of-a-skier than me???
People who ride dynastar, salomon, or rossi aren't "core" enough???

word, local shops are loosing so much money to online stuff, when you buy from a shop ur not just buying the product, your buying their help in the future, a free tune/wax here and there, people that can talk to you face to face when you have problems with your shit, kids come in all the time and want help warrentying shit they bought online and then bitch when they have to pay

good save, yea i can see where buying skis online is a more of a money issue then anything, sometimes you have to go for the cheaper price, but when you can def help your local shop out.

I wish I could but my local shops don't carry the skis I want, if they did I would def go there and buy it, but I still order my stuff from shops, just not local shops.

i was just stating that the trouble makers where listed cheaper in their brochure than their website..
this thread has nothing to do with getboards being a good business or not.. or whether people should by from local shops or online..
you need to take it elsewhere

it doesnt matter if you order them from the catalogue or online, their still gonna fuck it up somehow, i wouldnt be suprised if they accidentally combined the prices and charged you 839.98
