I apologize for swearing.

Mr twisty wants to contribute beyond “no” or saying what’s appropriate for someone else’s kid safety wise that’s fine and dandy.

Even asserting that a bargain...

You should seriously exit this thread. OP isn’t a noob- he’s been around here (and irl too) and made a request in GS (not tech talk).

Your replies are “No” or otherwise telling him what is right...

Fwiw, there is more “risk” associated with a tech binding over alpine. But the pearl clutching “OMG YER DAUTER GUN DIE” is crazy overblown. If you are light and not skiing ballz to ze wallz you will...

Yo Cat,
I’ve liked my Atomic BL 107 (182). Def worth considering with the above. Likewise Helio 105 (no personal experience but have the 116 and it’s impressive). I have a glut of 105-115 touring...

READ THE RULES JONG!!!!

No auctions! You could, like, totally be screwing over a mag tryna snipe these for $9000!

Google Mt Bohemia

Rather than kick the tires on these skis I just want to give props and a bump to this thread. Mighty generous and admirable.

Lol! Yeah I just read that whole fuckin transcript

I got no Addtl beta for you. If you’ve skied other TXs you know they are pretty traditional and predictable- both qualities I think are particularly useful in a spring ski where you could encounter...

This is what you want. 184cm. I bet you could call up and get these down to $425-450 shipped. Should end up around 1400g in the 184. There...

I don’t need to advocate my view as the only view-it is only my view.

But you should reread what I said and you should reread the opinions from those who have weighed in.

Absolutely others have...

I was making a joke. But, since you asked, this thread isn’t about money. Because the buyer is out money, $135 or $40, that isn’t coming to them-on merit or benevolence.

Truth be told I am happy...

Like I said- you are not needed here.

For $40

Yep- that’s it. I’m saying it.

Now, don’t get it twisted. Sellers is still responsible if they fucked up before they put it in the mail with tracking: grossly incompetent packing, incorrect or...

Yeah don’t care much the different between tour and pro. Much more interested in comparos between other skis in category- examples listed in OP.

And honestly I really don’t want to hear from a...

What ever would we do without you?

Skied it? Curious how it performs- esp any comparisons with other skis in that class(zerog,Backland,Helio etc)

Lol. Dude, what did you expect when you started this thread? For real, it has been mind blowingly constructive and thoughtful for a TGR GS dispute thread. You got your community response, a clear...

I’m gonna nitpick out the official guidelines. But to start, yes the seller has the responsibility to reasonably package the product. Slapping a label and tape on some Lotus 138s is not reasonable...

Here. I’ve pointed you to where you said the stupid things.

"$____shipped" only has one meaning: “buyer pays this amount and the skis get shipped to their chosen location.”

I don’t think we...

Huh?

Interpret “shipped” beyond “I as the seller am going to pack and ship these to you”

If I ship skis, and for whatever reason they never get to you, I’ve shipped the skis. Now If I fuck up...

For real - as we move into solutions in this thread - this is the solution.

I have shipped skis here extensively with UPS and USPS. Never FedEx (for convenience reasons).

UPS I did for a while...

Ah, I got a feeling when something sells here it’s “$____ shipped” or “$_____ +ship”. That’s whatcha get. I don’t tie my sales to the independent actions of 3rd parties. If a buyer wants something in...

Hah- I was thinking this was a poor analysis. True- both are out something. Except the seller gained 100% of the money, and buyer gained 0% of the product.

Agreed T2B

I think for the buyer here it’s SOL. Not great news but so it goes.

For everyone else I think this is a good cautionary tale to help:
-maintain clear communication
-know how to...

Oh you’ll hate me for this response if you thought my last one was too legal.

I don’t think the OP is searching for feelings validation. He’s trying to derive fault (it’s in the title).I think...

No disagreement that it would be fair to split the loss. Taint the question tho. What’s fair =/= what’s “owed”. Seller owes nothing. Could he be more generous? Sounds like it. But that’s courtesy,...

I think this is backwards. Seller doesn’t know what situation he/she is selling into. For some (like this case) a signature would be a good bit of protection. For other buyers a signature would be a...

As per the title of this thread “who’s at fault?” the answer is obvious and, at this point resounds like an echo in this tube.

Nobody is at fault. You paid. He shipped. 99% of the time all the...

A small misunderstanding on my part that is immaterial. The OP said someone else had laid claim (be it 2 min or 2 months before). He gave that person a deadline to shit or get off the pot, and looks...

Guess he could have just lied to you and said the person in line got em. These grapes are too sour. I see no transgression, just butthurt. Doesn’t take an OG forum vet to know marginal callouts are...

$250 shipped

Git these outta here.

Got a 1st gen 186 to measure against my 2nd gen 186s. At least on these the BC/0 mark is the exact same (840mm, straight pull from tail-not skin notch).

So there’s the answer to the question I...

No longer in plastic, but not drilled.

I don’t want to sell these- they just emanate fun and happiness. But I can’t justify holding them any longer. I know someone here will do right by them.
...

Ok- 186cm Helio 116 skiers, mount point check in.

I bought a pair of GS and the mount as-is has me at +.5cm (from the BC/0 line). This is I believe 2nd gen, so blk/wht with green accent box around...

I played this fun game recently looking for 26 Tlt 6 and got offered 100 other boots. Good luck.

I actually have a minty pair of TLT5 P in 26. They mostly sit around but I am not dying to sell...

I have an idea who’s they are

May be listing some DPS tour1 112s in a few days. Low end use (15-20 days) some scuffs but no damage of consequence. Drilled 1x for MTNs on the line 292mm. White camo top sheet.

Got from STP. Not gonna work for me. If nobody wants will be returning, but figured I’d offer here first.

26 new in box scarpa freedom RS.

$250

Bump for price drop. $350. Someone wants these

Should any cats get put up for sale they’ll have their own FS thread

I will be be painfully clear here- I have zero point zero interest in 7s, 8s, or really anything that isn’t new 6Ps. Scored a decent set of used 6Ps from a mag so unless some virtually unused come...

Bump on the backies. Should any of these other skis get put up for sale they’ll have FS threads

Thanks. Pass on 8s.

Really narrow search focus here- primo 6Ps or bust.

I’d say the FX 95HP (with metal) would be akin to the Brahma, but the non metal ones (on Sierra)are def more supple. Not quite as loosey goosey as those full rocker bridges, but def not as edgy as a...

Obvi you are looking for a trade, but if Sierra still has the non-HP FX95 I think that may be a good option. Sub $300 shipped. Offset that via a Brahma sale. Not a bad route
