hey guys i got these arv's new this season but cant hold onto them. they are brand new and havent been mounted. im lookin for somewhere around the usual new price you can find which is 599. anywhere around there and theyre yours. help a brother out and buy some sick skis. they are size 185. if youre lookin to buy ARVs this season just buy em from me instead of a store.

idk about 50% off but at least not 599. you won't get close to that. maybe 400 max if their new.

50% is rediculous. they are brand fuckin new. someone help a broke ass college kid out. ive seen kids get near retail on used skis which is dumb but these are new.
ive sold some stuff to people on here with no problems.

Total agreement here, 50% off is a complete BS number that Steven pulled out of his ass. There is no way you should discount brand new skis, this year model 50%...$400-$450 would be a fair price on these.

I paid $400 for new 07 ARVs.. which is pretty steep but I really wanted them, so I'm happy with the deal. These should prly go for like $450-500...seems fair.

Anything over $400 is totally unfair. It's much sketchier buying from someone online, you won't get free mounting from a shop, and you can't check for you. Plus, those don't even sell for $599 in shops, that's just MSRP. Are you that idiot who got caught for drinking on the TGR forums?

Ebay man, people on here are really scared to laydown that kind of money to just a person, i deff am because i got dicked around when i bought a pair of skis on here...
also is there anyway you could send em back, if they are new and still wraped up they should just take em back

I think that somewhere around 450-500 is fair.
Im not lookin to screw anyone over here.
Yes they do sell for 599 at stores and msrp is 698:

TGR is also alot different than NS is...Mags will pay top dollar for Goats or exploders, but ARV's won't fetch a very good price because they are soft and whatnot.
And the TGR guidelines aren't followed, even over there...skis like squads and Bros. go for almost retail regularly.
These are brand new, this years ski, and should not go for less than $400, regardless of what the TGR guidelines say.
