Bring along your own boots (if possible)
It's a good idea to bring along your own boots. Bindings have a limited range of adjustment, and if the seller has a foot much larger or smaller than your own you'll have to take it to a shop to be remounted. Add the extra cost into what you'll be paying for the ski.
If you're in the market for a full set of gear, buy your boots first
