    You should send him a change for a nickel sticker and let him know that it is redeemable--repeatedly--at any ski area with Maggots for a beer this upcoming season.

    Good luck. I feel this since I was there that morning and walked right past those skis.

The seller was super cooperative, sent him proof they were mine and he spoke with the Alta sheriff office and they confirmed mine were stolen. He's shipping them out to me at the cost of shipping. Great resolution, happy to have my skis back. Now to decide if I should sell them or just have 2 pairs of Kartel 116s with Pivot 18s.
    Sweet! Post back here when you get them.

    So stoked you got your skis back and no doubt that Dad has some good juju coming his way...

    Now may I suggest one of these... I never leave home without it and always gets wrapped around my ON3Ps and Praxis... I was lucky enough to be sitting on the patio at Bach and watched some scum bag try and steal my custom ON3Ps and he claimed he thought they were his... Once that went down all my shit gets locked down as best they can...Name:  dakine-micro-lock-green.jpeg

    Oh wow. Missed this story earlier. It's sure nice to see a thread like this that doesn't finish with the resolution of "bummer, dude".

    Glad to see this. Reminds me of when I bought Zeedashbo's stolen Lhasas off eBay. Luckily we got it all straightened out just like this situation.
