$225 for Invaders is not much of a deal if you work at a shop. Couldn't you order them on a pro/shop form? They could have been only $150.
Think it over or ask someone.

you didnt read it correctly, i dont work at a shop. I work for my local mountain. The local shop has a deal with the local mountain that gives the mountain employees a discount on gear. We dont get it for as much as the shop workers do. But idk why you dont think 225 vs. 300 isnt that great of a deal.

STFU NEWB you know what the discount is and yea you have to prove it with your last pay stub. But yo Ross, get your shit there because the new 07 skiis are at a sale price for like a week and then you get an additional discount on top of that so like whatever they were selling the invaders for at the sale price, i got an aditional 10 percent off of that.

there should be a thread for people to tell how badly they got raped on prices on shit. or just the rediculous amount of money that you spent on all your shit.

Now all you need is to go to your local SureFoot and get footbeds and a custom foam liner for your boots..... Since you saved all that money... you should spend some of it on making you boots fit correctly..... BTW ... i have nothing to do with SureFoot except own there product and I can tell you it was the best investment in ski gear EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Spent $1200 this year and about $1000 last year. I decided to spent all my money on ski gear and gas and thats about it because my mom buys ATVS and jetskis so I can just use it all on ski gear.
