Title says it all

I have some 07 Rossignol FKS 185 bindings in great shape, with wide brakes that I want to trade for a pair of Marker Dukes,

I could also work out a deal for some Jesters or S916s that have brakes around 135...

The FKS 185 MSRP was $399

is the photo of the current condition?

i don't have any dukes, but i'm sure i could probably buy some for a similiar amount to what i'm prepared to pay for the fks if that makes any sense. if you don't get any offers soon let me know and i can probably work something out

if you knew how to read, you would see four letters next to $399, MSRP.
MSRP stands for Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price, and means just that, a suggested selling price for the retailer. It is a term used mostly in the car industry; otherwise the term list price is more commonly used. This was the price when they were new, however, as you and I can see. They are not new.
This does not take into account that this was the last year that FKS bindings were produced.

Next time, before you make a uninformed comment about your purchase of some old fks 185s, please read the thread. I'm sure there are tons of rich racer kids out there with FKS stockpiles, you probably are referring to the one sale by a racer with a look p18 stockpile on here. However, those sales are rare and the bindings are beat.

These are not beat to hell p18s with dead springs, these are 2007 FKS 185 Bandits, the binding that is used by the Rossi BC skiers, like Sage.

So thanks for the help with my trade and if you can give me the info of your lame, rich, racer friend with FKS 185 Bandits, please post it in here so we can all see how right you are.

with used dukes selling for ~300 dollars and these usually selling for 175-200 i think you have to throw in some cash to sweeten the offer.

i stand by my point. i had no idea what msrp stood for, thanks for the lesson pops. you're asking rediculous prices, just cause NS kids have never heard of going over to TGR doesn't mean you can rip them off. the 2007 fks bamdit is the same exact binding as the entire fks series, i'll take the exact same model "with fucksored up springs" for $100 less thank you very much. been riding those for years now and fucking love em. also, every silly rich racer has a stockpile like that, i saw more fks than i've seen in my entire life at hood this summer, kids are rediculous.

here you go nsers. this one has teh geze toe if you're worried about having upward release. (mod go ahead and delete this if you want)

I don't think you guys are on the same page here, let me explain:
Tbrody says: msrp is $400 so I think a trade for dukes is fair, maybe toss some cash in to sweeten the deal
So yeah your right $400 would be a ridiculous selling price IF HE WAS SELLING. So why dont you go try to ruin someone elses sale thread.
What do you get by doing that, do you get some kind of satisfaction knowing that somebody didn't sell their gear?

Wow..."Ralph", you are a douchebag of epic proportions.
He's wanting someone who has Dukes and is looking for some FKS instead, never once did I hear him even mention selling them, particularly for $400...did you?

Ok then, bump for someone with Dukes to help this guy out.
