Five Tips for Selling your Gear:
Would you buy it? – equipment should be gently used and in good condition.
- Ski bindings over 10 years old can no longer be serviced by a licensed ski technician. As such, we do not accept them for sale.
- Snowboard bindings must be installed on a board – not sold as a standalone item.
Make your gear shine & sparkle!
- Wipe the dirt, dust and grime off your boots, skis or snowboard.
- Close boot buckles and lace up boots to restore their shape.
- Remove any rust off the edges of skis and boards with some steel wool.
Stay informed – Track the sales status of your gear online.
Avoid the crowds – Have the proceeds mailed to you or e-transferred if all your gear sells.
De-clutter – Donate your unsold equipment to charity.
Public Receiving Fine Print:
- Canadian Ski Patrol deducts a sales commission of 25% from the selling price of each public receiving item sold.
- Only alpine skis, snowboards and ski/snowboard boots are eligible for sale. No poles, helmets clothing or Nordic gear this year.
- Your equipment remains at the same selling price for the duration of the swap. No re-pricing after it’s entered for sale.
- Unsold equipment will be available for pick-up at Snow Valley from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm Sunday, November 10th. After that you can make arrangements to pick it up the Canadian Ski Patrol Office, 750 Oakdale Rd Toronto (Hwy 400 & Finch Ave).
- Unclaimed equipment becomes the property of the Canadian Ski Patrol.
