Brand Name New & Used Alpine &

Cross Country Ski Equipment at Bargain Prices

Used Ski Equipment Sale will include: snowboards, ski clothing & ice skates.

ALL SALES FINAL - ABSOLUTELY NO RETURNS

*****************************************************************

Here's how it works: On Friday night, you drop off your equipment. Nothing may be dropped off on Saturday. You tag your items and set your price. On Saturday, your equipment is offered for sale along with new and used equipment from invited vendors. If your items sell, you get a check for 85% of your selling price. If they don't sell, you can pick your items up at the end of the event at 1 PM. It's that simple.

If you want to get a head start, you can download our intake form, fill out as much as you can and bring it with you on Friday night. Tag numbers will be assigned by us Friday Night.

Doors open for a preview at 8:30 AM, Saturday. At 8:55, all shoppers are moved outside until 9:00, when the doors officially open. All profits from the sale go directly to Explorer Post 85.

*****************************************************************

What can you sell? Let's start with the obvious: Skis! Ski boots, snow boards, snow board boots, ski apparel, winter clothing, ice skates, hockey equipment, gear bags, helmets, inline skates, snow shoes, gloves, mittens or any other winter sports related items. We do ask that the equipment is in good condition and fit to be safely used.

We will review items dropped off to ensure that they are in good working order. In particular, ski boots must have a "DIN" number. If you see DIN followed by a number on the boot, you're all set. If not, sorry, your boots are too old to be sold.

Skis with bad bindings also cannot be accepted. We'll take a look at them for you on your way in.

*****************************************************************

Directions: From Rt 9, take Rt 30 west for approximately 1/2 mile. The Hastings School will be on your left. Enter the school through the main entrance on the right.
