Shops
Ski shops near the resorts often sell ex-rental, ex-demo and trade-in skis, and will mount and tune them. Ask the shop you would use anyway what they have before the season starts.
A shop or a boot fitter is also where a certified technician checks bindings on a ski you have bought.
Swaps
Ski clubs, schools and resort communities run seasonal swaps and sales, usually before the snow comes. Look at your state ski club, your resort’s community pages and the school you ski with.
Online groups and marketplaces
GumtreeLocal listings. Prices are what sellers ask, not what skis sell for.

These are other people’s sites. We don’t read prices from them and we don’t earn anything from the links.
Before you pay
Work out whether the ski suits you first, then roughly what it should cost. Pick the model in the used price guides for a fit check, a buying checklist and the maker’s RRP. How the estimate works is on how much are used skis worth.
Bought or sold a pair? Add it with the I paid / I soldform on that model’s page. A person checks every price before it counts.
