Thread: WTB - Marker Duke - hook a brotha up

How are we going to work out the pymt. details. We know the price. We know the deadline. We know the approx. deliv. date. What's missing?

They fit a niche for me. Really, they're a S916/Trekker replacement that saves me weight, which is pretty important as a traveling skier. If I lived in the mountains I'd probably have a quiver with S916s and Dynafits, but I have to fly with one ski only so this fits the bill. I never considered Naxos or Freerides because I will often ski hardpack on a trip. I'm happy that anecdotally they are being well received but I'll be even happier if they have a more elastic toe than the old Markers. So for me, they're filling a position better than any alternative.

Thanks ptex!

Edit 4 - Now I just need to find a Dynafit compatible alpine boot with Vibram.

This may be a stupid question, but these will work with AT boots, right? Need to get Ptex a PM.

Yep, with alpines and "regular" AT boots (those using old Dynafit TLT somethings need not apply).

I just got a PM about the price, did I miss one about a deadline and delivery date?

I also got the price pm but nothing on when you need the money and when I'll see the binders...i guess that can be a post without revealing the price.

Edit: Shit I just saw the post on the preceding page. Next Friday, yikes! Delivery sounds good though.

I will need to put the order in by next friday. i also want everybody to know i wont have the binding until probably late august early september. I will need payment when I order . Obviously this is going to be probably over a 10,000 dollar order and I cant get stuck with it.

WOAH!!!

That means the deadline is TOMORROW - THE FRIDAY BEFORE MEMORIAL DAY!!

Nothing I had from ptex indicated that quick deadline. I am in and trying to pay, but I wonder how many others are missing the deadline unintentionally.

My PM from Ptex was pretty clear. My order is in.

For those running up against it... PM ptex for his number, and pay w/ credit card over the phone.

Just looked and my cc got charged the appropriate amount on 5/22. Gotta love the layaway plan. Looking forward to Xmas in September.

It was clear to me...I'm not sure if it was in my PM, but I've been following this thread...he posted the deadline pretty shortly after he started firing out the PMs.

That being said...I probably won't be able to participate this go-round. ptex is the mang. Hopefully he'll be the duke mang in the future, too.

Will someone forward me his PM? Might be interested. Just want to know the payment protocol in case I decide I am. Thanks.

I PMd you bossass, not sure why you couldn't send him a PM yourself though.

I figured dude is pretty busy today, just trying to save him some hassle. Thanks for the PM.

ptex1 rocks.

PM sent. Definitely in for a LRG with the LRGist brakes if'n there's still time.

Granted...he may not care, but maybe you want to check with ptex before posting his name, biz, and phone number for the whole world. Not sure he wants to be taking calls from just anyone...this is supposed to be a maggot hookup...and as far as I know, he was only giving out his info for this deal via PM...I don't believe he posted his name/biz/number anywhere in this thread. (correct me if I'm wrong...and if you already checked with him on this, ignore me).

seriously not cool. dude would have posted his info if he wanted it out there. what the fuck dude?

yea, very un-maggot-friendly move: for ALL OF US IN ON THIS GROUP BUY as well as for ptex1
WTF did you not get after all the painstaking effort to make this happen???
PLEASE DELETE YOUR POST NOW!!

Deleted.

But he has posted that number before on other threads he started about selling stuff. Was only looking to help those that were interested in late orders.

thanks.
sorry to harsh out; i'm sure your intentions were good, but i'd hate to see this deal fall through for the many who were on top of this (like, me for starters) -- or for ptex to get grief from marker or other shops -- for the sake of a small few possibly behind the eight ball, when a "PM Ptex for details" would have sufficed.

dammit, i'm always johnnycomelately!

BushwackerinPA just (within the past several days) hipped me to this thread since I just plunked down on some skis to designate as my intro to BC planks.

since i've missed the boat, if anybody happens to stumble upon the sweet or even semi-sweet deal on the Dukes, please let me know!

gracias!

I believe that Sinecure can semi-vouch for me! (i.e. we've bumped into each other in the lift lines at AM, but we've yet to actually make turns together, if you can believe that!)

PM sent.

Just wanted to bump this because we have the official/unofficial last day of summer this weekend.....I know I'm excited!
