What skis are these?

So I picked up these skis at a ski shop in Lake Placid today. I forgot what the guy said the name was, just that they are Bluehouse somethings. He said the length is 179, but I'm going to take off the bindings to search for a length stamp since there isn't one on the sidewall. If you can figure out what these skis are, what are they worth (with the bindings). I paid $334 for them. Was that a steal, or did I get shafted?

not sure but i can bet money you got a deal because those bindings value around 250 and even if they are 200 dollar skis you still got a deal

Thanks guys! They don't say the length on there anywhere but they are a little bit taller than my 177 volkl walls so they're probably 182's.

Also, does anyone know what year these are? It seems to me that Bluehouse has only one line up for McFlys or Rockered McFlys and they don't look like this. I went to their facebook page and it looks like this design was a concept that they decided not to go with. Are these a prototype or something?

bluehouses retail for around that much, yes. But they are almost never sold at that price, even from them. They put their crap skis on sale multiple times a year at around 200 bucks because that's all they're really worth. haha
