I'll throw some pics up in a bit, but when cleaning out my garage, I came accross 2 sets of fks 155 bindings, 1 new in box, and one so close to new you can barely tell.

New FKS 155- $275 + Ship

Used FKS 155 - $200 + ship.

PM Me.

Just so you know, dealer cost on the fks was 195.  Retail was somewhere around 300-350.

These prices are not asking to much for what your getting.


Here are some pics of the clamps.

Trades for Crowbars, Rossi TI 14 bindings or outerwear? I'd give you 150 for the gold ones. How wide are the brakes on the gold ones?

Nah the brakes aren't replaceable but it is possible to disassemble the baseplate and bend the brakes to whatever width you desire

The price is only steep by TGR pricing standards, solid bindings at a solid price - almost impossible to find new now..

At the end of the day, they will outlast most other consumer bindings so the price pays for itself fairly quickly given that they will last many seasons, they also have the DIN range which meets most peoples needs without going overkill.

Someone buy them!

They are easy to bend if you know what you doing.  I have a set on my steezes and they fit fine (110mm under foot)

Both clamps still availible, and I'll even ship them to ya for freee!!!!!!!

I'm not budging on the price.

I cant ship oversees.

I wont lower the price either.  I'll just throw these bad boys up on the shelf till next season if no one wants them.

I will do free ship, but I'm going nowhere on the prices.

Wow man...I gotta say these prices are pretty steep, and I'm not one to call out people on prices usually.
I sold NIB '07 155s (last model year, better than these gold ones) for $200...which is a fair price.
$275 is a bit much, particularly when MSRP on them was like $300.

Sorry dude, but that price is fucking insane. ESPECIALLY when you work for Rossi. Everyone knows you didn't pay full price for that shit, so don't flip it to make a banger profit. Jackass.

And by the way, prodeal cost was about $110, so dealer cost would not have been much more than that. Don't fucking lie, fool.

Kids, you can find them here for $200 BRAND NEW for a pair. Type in your NS username for $20 off. $180 for a brand new pair. Save youself some cash.

Yo "bud". They are in stock, but you have to call them to place the order. You can't do it online.

http://www.proctorjones.com/pjonline/product.asp?s_id=0&dept_id=11450&pf_id=6784&prod_name=Rossignol+FKS+155

Regardless, don't pay $200 for used bindings from this guy, and especially not $275 for new ones. There are plenty of people selling slightly used pairs for $150 lately.

275$ for a new pair is the worst deal ive ever seen on this site. Nobody is gona bite at that price. They are worth 200$ new maximum and 150$  in good condition. Check out this ebay auction that ended 3 days ago, now that fair market price;  http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=180249323831&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=008

"Bud" these are sold out. Plus he is selling the 06/07 version, not the 05/06. I think the price is right, because these are almost impossible to find, and the used ones a practically new!
