SLC ski swaps?

[gramps]

If someone could let me know when the various ski swaps around town are I'd really appreciate it. I've already got the info for the BD one, I'm just wondering what else will be going on. If this has already been posted, sorry.

Sweet, thanks. I have a pair of Big Daddies to sell. Skied on 1 season, no core shots. I've got the Atomic Binding plate and the Telemark-pyrenees mount anything plate. I'm hoping to get $350-$400 for em. That sounds like a reasonable price right? I'd try to sell em here, but I know mntlion is selling new ones for $400, so I'm thinking I might have better luck at a swap...

the big daddy's always fetched a purdy price at the swaps. keep in mind that at snowbird you have to pay 20% to their charity. at rei it is somewhere around 10-15%. bd is free and i think alta is also. good luck selling those.

Same 20% deal to support their academy

They have great last years race gear fr sale always.

I put it up to complete this all encompassing ski swaps of UT thread. Not sure it helps you much though.

ya might want to try the board @ Wasatch Touring for boards like that, or an add in the Utah Sports Guide.

update:
i was told that rei is either the week after bd's or the next (last two weekends or oct).

Dammit. Aside from the Alta one, All of them are before I get into LCC.

I'd love to be able to snag a some 180-ish SG or 170-ish GS sticks for inversion days/weeks.

Never Forget the Black Diamond swap!! There are no fees and it is more of a fleemarket than anything. Last year people were selling kites and paragliders, as well as hand blown glass. It is all good there and gramps...you may have some luck with those big daddies there.

BD Swap OCTOBER 16th from 8am-whenever, but get there early to save a parking stall because otherwise you'll have to park outside of the lot and walk in with your stuff to sell. Most set up shop right out of their cars.

Also this week the SPORTS DEN (1300S. Foothill) is having their small swap OCT 7-10, bring all stuff before the 7th. They keep 20% if you don't use the money for instore credit. Otherwise take what is left.
