I have some fischer misfits. They are awesome skis, in that I can shred park on them and pow if there happens to be some. They are also a few years old and beat to hell with a bit of missing edge etc.
I brought them into a shop for their third and final mount and said mount them true center, as in here, the middle of the ski. They called me up later in the week saying they couldnt mount them where I wanted, but they could do 10mm back or 4mm forwards. As they are more all mountainy type skis, I told them 10mm back would be fine. When I went to pick up my skis today, they had mounted them 10mm back from the all mountainy recommendation point. In other words, ridiculously far back.
This shop has mounted skis for me before, but they arent a ski shop. They are a used sports gear shop that sells ski gear in the winter. I told them I want them to reimburse me for my skis and they said they would talk to the owner and call me back.
How much do they owe me? I couldnt sell these skis for much, but they are worth something to me, especially as they were still usable. Also, instead of skiing both days on my own equipment this weekend, I could only ski on my roommates skis, as my skis were in the shop. I also spent gas money and time driving to and from the shop.
