Alright so i go to my local goodwill and i check out the skis as usual to see if anything good popped up. Lo and Behold, 2 pairs of look pivot bindings. They are really old pairs though, none of the new ones. i recorded some letters that i thought were the model or something
they are:
Look XM
and
Look SP 69
I want to know if these are still worth something. If any other info is needed, just tell me, ill go back and tkae some pictures and write down more stuff.
Thank you in advance!

came out in 1985. something tells me the toe only has two screws, maybe the heel too. I have old geze bindings that look like that. has the vertical toe still, but its a one piece like the new rossi fks 180. bottom line - not safe and not worth anything.

you could probably sell them just for there breaks if the breaks are like the current ones. Although the older they are the more brittle they are when you bend them, or atleast so I have been told

probably no longer indemnified so no shop will mount them

the SP 69 was from the 80s i think, cos there is some on my dads really old straight skis he had back then..
Almost certainly no shop will mount them

This, i have a pair of look forza pros from the late 80's and my shop wouldnt mount them, so i did it myself, even though they are old they still great all metal, never had a problem with them

Alright so basically i will not be able to use them unless they do a self mount?

if you want to rip them out, go for it. there is a reason nobody mounts them.

they arent going to rip out, i have mounted 3 pairs myself and i ride hard and have never pulled a binding out. the reason shops dont mount them is cause they are old and they probably wont release correctly. and dont want injured people coming back saying its the shops fault for mounting the bindings.
