So I'm looking at getting some 177 afterbangs, the best prices I can find from online vendors with no tax/free shipping is $285. Its a good price, but I wouldn't mind waiting a few months to get them if I could get a better deal, do you think these skis will go on sale for significantly less at the end of season, or should I just get them now and enjoy them?

From what I have learned with buying skis, yeah they will probably get cheaper, but I don't think they will go bellow 200

They probably will go lower, but not until a lot of them have sold, so there will only be a few left, and maybe not the size you want. And they'll probably sell out REALLY fast when the price does drop again. This is what happened with the Anthems last year, someone posted that they were really cheap and then all of a sudden there were none left. (except a few 161s).

Thanks guys, thats what I was figuring too. I just picked up a pair of 177s for $278 shipped, and it was the last pair the place had in stock for the 177s. I think the 'bangs are just in too high demand this year to impose killer deals.

I hope I like them as much as some of the folks here!

I would get them right now, because if you wait they might get sold out in your size, and 285 is a GREAT price. End of season sales, especially on Line (pricepoint) skis, are the bomb. i got invaders a couple years ago for 150.
