What items can I sell at the ski sale?
Any snow sport related equipment: e.g. alpine or nordic skis, poles, boots, snowboards, helmets, ice skates, car carriers, clothing, etc. We don't have unlimited space, though, so please don't bring in items that are old or have little or no value (i.e. broken, worn out, too old to be usable but not old enough to be considered an antique, etc.). We reserve the right to refuse unsafe or no longer serviceable equipment.

Do you have a list of indemnified bindings?
We will have representatives from local ski shops there to determine if the equipment is safe and can service the bindings when you drop off your items Friday night.
What if I don't know how much something is worth?
We'll have knowledgeable people around on Friday who can help you price your items.
What if I don't want my item back?
Let us know in the check in process and we will put a wicked low price on it. We don't have storage, so if it doesn't sell, we will need to figure out what to do with it.
When do I get paid?
After the sale ends at 2pm on November 15th sellers are asked to come to the Camden Snow Bowl to receive payment by check, we will give them a check at that time. If that is an issue be in touch with one of the people at the sale and we can be sure you will get your check.
What if my equipment doesn't sell?
Unsold equipment must be picked up between 2pm and 4pm at the Camden Snow Bowl on November 15th. All equipment not picked up by 4pm will be considered a donation to benefit the 4th Grade Learn to Ski program and the Camden Hills High School Ski Team.
