These "new" used skis are getting more pricy. $250 for the skis, $190 for bindings, shop costs to mount the new bindings and plug the old holes. Should I consider an older railflex which can be picked up for ~$100?

Meput:  I think the PowerRail is better (wider, a bit lower, and much easier to adjust), but I don't think it is twice as good. So for half the price, I would go with the Railflex, depending on what you see coming down the road.

What moved Lynn and I in a PowerRail direction was our choice of other skis.  The PowerRail has been standard on a number of Head and Fischer skis for a couple of years.  We knew Lynn was looking for a Fischer Progressor 8, so we put the PowerRail on her Ski Logik and got the bindings effectively free when she bought her Progressor 8's.

Sooo, if you thought that your SuperShape replacement might come with a PowerRail from the factory, then you might a big chunk of that money back by not having to buy bindings for the other new skis.
