Just to keep track
Alright, I've bought everything I need for this year when it comes to the ski season. I honestly have no excuse to continue prowling eBay anymore... even if I enjoy finding a great bargain or another jacket...
I have purchased in the past month:
Even I'm a little surprised how much I've purchased. Even MORE surprised that I've bought brand new stock, and current season stock! I never ever thought I could afford it... because it literally costs 3 times as much to buy any of this in Australia... THANKYOU eBAY!!!! I've always owned last season stock, or older. Even second hand stuff.
Finally, I'm surprised that I've bought so much BURTON gear. I never thought I'd admit defeat to them... haha i've totally SOLD OUT to Burton... don't tell me friends.. :P
Only 51 Days to go until Ski Season Opening Weekend :D
Honestly, the above added up to about $800. My snowboard ALONE would cost more than that if I purchased it retail here in Australia. I shit you not... Not bad at all, if I say so myself.
A new friend of mine is nagging me about going to New Zealand, and I'm probably going to hit it up. Take a 5 day package... somewhere about 800-1000 bucks which includes flights, 5 nights accommodation, car rental and 3 day ski ticket. Not shabby... Probably keen for August?? Ahhhh according to STA, this round of bargain prices finish end of April... ack, I better book something fast....
