| What condition are the
skis in?
For specifics on each item please see the description in the auction.
All skis come cleaned, freshly sharpened, and newly waxed.
The bindings have been inspected to ensure there are no obvious broken parts. The
skis are sold "as-is" but have passed our inspection and are in usable condition at a minimum. Ski waxing does not fill in
grooves/gouges, it applies a thin layer of wax evenly over the surface.
Scratches and chips may be present on the top of the ski and the
bindings, please see the specific item description for details.
You MUST have your bindings adjusted by a qualified ski technician
before any use. They will be able to provide you with the proper
setting for your boots and for you ability level. Failure to do so
may result in serious injury. Binding adjustment only costs about $15 at your
local ski shop, some even do it for free.
Ski Sizing:
We sell all sizes of skis that are
typically available (80cm to 210cm). You can use the chart below to help determine what size ski would work
best for you. Advanced skiers often choose skis based on
preference, not necessarily the charts. Consult your local ski
shop if you feel you need more specific sizing information.

Boot Sizing:
We also sell a wide variety of boots in all typically available
sizes. You can use the chart below to help determine what size
boot would work best for you. It is a good idea to have a boot
that fits well as it will help to prevent injury and allow for a more
comfortable day on the slopes. Usually boots fit
with their corresponding shoe sizes. Boots cannot be made bigger,
but they can be tightened, so ordering a half or whole size bigger than
you typically wear may be a good idea if you have had sizing issues with
ski boots in the past. Consult your local ski shop if you feel you
need more specific sizing information. For Women who would like to

*The Mondo Size above and the conversion
to Men's/Women's sizing may not correspond to the Mondo Size and
Men's/Women's Size listed on the boot. As a standard, we convert
the Mondo size we find on the boot into Men's sizing using this chart.. Women's shoes
are narrower than men's. Also, the heel on a woman's shoe is
narrower than the forefoot width. Men's shoes have the same width at the
forefoot and heel. Women can wear men's shoes by converting their size
to men's by subtracting 1.5 from their numeric size. This is a
loose conversion and doesn't change the difference in width and
forefoot-to-heel ratios. Boots listed for auction are described as
Men's or Women's (and the size listed) based on what the boot is labeled
as. |
