How To Buy Skis At REI

Do you want to know how to buy skis at REI? Being a seasonal good, skis have the advantage that you can buy them during the off season at lower prices. This applies if you don´t mind buying previous season skis, but let´s be realistic, there´s not a lot new to see from year to year.

To buy skis at REI, you need:

• A computer with Internet access.

The steps to buy skis at REI are:

1. Go online to http://www.rei.com/

3. Use the categories browser, find "snowsports", then on the left column you´ll see "Alpine Skis".
4. Another choice will be "shop REI outlet", and under "Ski equipment" you will find not many, but very good deals on skis year round.
5. If you don't see the skis you like on the website, give your local REI a call. If you don´t live close to any branch, call 1-800-426-4840.
6. Becoming a member costs a few dollars, but when buying expensive gear you end up saving money.
7. The best season to buy skis is late spring, but becoming a member at REI will also give you access to many closeout sales that take place all through the year.
8. If you prefer to shop at the store, you'll find great help and information in the snow sports section. REI associates are really great at giving the best insider information, because they themselves are sportsmen and women.

So don't hesitate and go get your skis at REI, or shop online at one of the best sports store around.
