skied a couple days, awesome condition, mounted +2 from recommended @ 310 BSL.  couple super minor scratches on the bottom, couple teeny tiny ships on topsheets, 99.8% new though.  i just snagged a pair of fat bros so i won't need these anymore, although they are super fun. 

looking for $600 or so plus shipping. 

please don't make me put them on ebay.

pm or post here with offers

I can't see it

But I will vouch that +2 is a good position to mount these in.  I love mine.

^The 4frnt's have about eight coreshots and have been baseground at least five times, the edge thickness is about 1mm right now. i'll sell them for original MSRP of skis + bindings, which i believe is about $900, plus shipping.  sorry dude those skis are my babies and the stickers alone are worth more in sentimental value than i could possibly charge for the setup (realistically it's worth about $200)

spencer - while the 914 isn't quite as light as say, the Z12ti, it is lighter than the all-metal binders out there (916 etc).  the weight difference is pretty negligible though, my 4frnts have 912ti's and when i hold them in one hand and the bacons in the other i can barely tell the difference in weight.  plus the 914 has a steel track in the heelpiece which is much more durable than the aluminum/titanium one in the 912 and Z12 (i dunno if it's aluminum or titanium, all i know is that i flippin break them on a regular basis and i don't even ski all that hard).  also there is less plastic in the heelpiece assembly on the 914 (i've broken that part on the 912 as well). 

bottom line 914 is a great binding and once you strap them to your feet you won't know the difference anyway.
