Ha! I wish the bindings were for me since that would mean I had a new set of skis to mount up. But alas, they really are not for me.

WTB: 10-12 DIN bindings for wife
Need some 10-12 DIN bindings for my wife's skis. No need for anything super fancy. New or lightly used would be preferred. But really open. Would like to spend $40-50.
