I ordered some skis from Colorado Discount Skis. Shortly after I ordered them, within a day or at the most two, I realized I could purchase them for much less from a different ski shop. As a result I called the number to Colorado Discount Skis and reached a man named Tom, who I believe is the owner, to request a cancelation. Tom stated the skis had already shipped which was understandable, however Tom was extremely rude to say the least. Unbelievable how rude Tom was. I stated that I'd ship them back unpacked in the original box as soon as I received them to my residence, and Tom rapidly stated that it would cost me a $200 "restocking fee", and that if I'd read the info contained on his webpage I would have see that clearly written. I waited until I received the skis, and called Tom a second time to let him know of my intentions to ship the skis back to his store. If it was even possible, he may have been even more rude than he was during the first conversation very much berating me verbally while reminding me that yes, if I sent them back, it would cost me $200 so that the amount to be refunded would be what I'd paid minus the $200. If you read some of the other reviews, it's clear that Tom has a history of being unnecessarily rude and abrasive. It's amazing to me with his harsh attitude and demeanor and disposition that he's even still in business. And what is with the $200 fee. Ok I get it. Time is money but that is excessive. Tom is an extremely unpolite business owner to put it lightly certainly by the way he spoke with me. Don't get the intent of my review mistaken. I was willing to suck up the $200 which is absurd in and of itself, but because Tom was so rude and nasty, I didn't trust that he'd ever refund me the difference of what I'd paid minus the $200. Then I'd have to take this extremely rude individual to court which would cost me more than the skis I'd suspect. I'd be out of the money and skis if I dared risk shipping them back. Tom is the most rude business owner I've ever met in my entire life and I'm 62 and retired from Active Duty, United States Army. Tom also told me that I'd better get them shipped back quickly because based on his return policy, my time was expiring. Unbelievable. How corrupt. read more

They don't have every ski, but they have a huge selection and the best prices, especially on prior year's closeouts! Tom is great with advice and very patient. My skis came in just a few days and shipping was very reasonable. Check out the site coloradodiscountskis.com. You won't regret it! Especially for performance skis! read more

The owner does not do warranties and gets defensive when asked about them for some reason

Doesn't stand behind his products. My son bought a pair of skies, and on the first run he booted out and the ski bent. Obviously, a manufacturer defect. When contacted he basically said, so sad, too bad. He made no attempt to help at all. We realize he didn't make the ski, but he certainly could have helped contact the manufacturer or replace them and get credit from the rep himself. That's what any reputable store would do. Conclusion, he's not reputable. read more

Wow, Tom has horrible customer service. I called to see if he could help me process a warranty of skis bought through his business. Before I could finish my question, he cursed me out and hung up on me. Talking over me and telling me it's not his problem and I'm out of luck. Frankly I'm amazed they're still in business given Tom's attitude. It's one thing to show some decency and say "I'm sorry, I am unable to help you" and another to be downright combative from the get-go. read more

Just got my Atomic Neox T12 ski brakes that I ordered and received via US Post in 8 days. Quick and the parts were exactly as described and required. Tom also responded within 24 hrs to questions regarding the parts before placing my order. Awesome service! Thanks Ski. read more

Just okay. shipped me the incorrect product more than once. which isnt the end of the world but a meaningful hassle. they also are not quick to correct their errors. prices are similar to the race place and other ski race shops. read more

I don't write a lot of reviews, but Tom and Colorado Discount Skis warrant one. They have great skis at great prices, and when you call about something, the owner picks up and not only fixes the issue, he talks skiing with you! Feel confident shopping at this place, for sure. read more

I bought four Alpine Skis and poles from Colorado Discount ski. Tom is offering a great service even when you buy online like me. He has been always quick to reply emails , pick up the phone. Tom is super helpful to setup the bindings. He also gave great advice about the selection of ski. Prices are competitive, being in NJ I didn't had to pay the state tax so the transportation cost you will have are covered. All in one,great professional service at a unbeatable price. Thanks Tom! read more

If you are an avid skier and hate paying retail prices for your skis then call Tom at Colorado discount skis. He had the exact pair of skis I wanted for the 2017-2018 season for a ton less than any of the shops here on the East Coast. The skis were packaged well for shipping and arrived in less than 4 days. Well worth a 10 minute phone call. read more

Great service and pricing on high quality products. This will be my second pair of Fischer skis. First pair were bought 6 years ago and completely satisfied. I am a ski instructor and do my own research so I can't comment on his helpfulness with selecting skis but I would highly recommend him. read more

I drove to Limon, Colorado yesterday (1/27) to check out the inventory at Colorado Discount Skis. I called Tom on Monday to make sure he was open and we chatted a bit about what I was looking for. During our conversation he stated he had approximately 1000 prs of skis in stock. I've been in the ski industry for over 40 years, visited countless shops, been through manufacturer warehouses, so I kind of smiled... thinking "right... a thousand pairs of skis"! I parked in front of the shop. A small, brick faced storefront, with an unobtrusive sign set way up high and a small display window with a few signs visible. Tom was just sweeping a dusting of snow away from the door. After introducing ourselves, we went in. I was in for the shock of my life! Rack after rack of high end skis, every model, every size... Head, Salomon, Atomic, Nordica, Fischer, Elan, Volkl, and more... the racks were full! I was a kid in a candy shop! Race skis, every discipline! Carvers, wide powder skis... Even about a half dozen pairs of Atomic 238cm Speed Skis! I was truly amazed by the quantity, quality, and depth of the product surrounding me! After selecting a couple of pairs I wanted, we toured the entire shop! Needless to say, there were even more skis in storage! I met Bob, Tom's coworker, who does the shipping. I was really impressed how a two man shop handles so much inventory and business! They have a really smooth system down. But they must, given the amount of shipping Tom told me they do! Don't expect dirt cheap, but don't expect full retail either! I thought his prices were rather fair. But most importantly... he has what you want/need! Brand, model, size... he has them! Will I be going back in the future when I need something? Oh, HELL, YES!!! read more

What a seamless process, from finding my perfect skis at Tom's web site to ordering and, best of all, superior customer service. Tom was available by phone and gave me significant encouragement when I asked about mounting my own bindings...and it worked like a charm. I'll recommend Colorado Discount Skis to everyone. An exceptional, personal customer service experience that is rare for someone selling online. Buy your skis here. read more

I have purchased several types of ski equipment from Tom over the years. Every transaction has been 100% perfect. His pricing is the best I have found anywhere and, unlike other "discount" ski equipment stores, he is very knowledgeable and direct. There's no need for any concern that you will be steered toward higher-priced equipment when that's not appropriate but you will be when that is appropriate. Tom has patiently listened to my logic and then told me several times "you don't want that" for items I was fully ready to buy from him online, and he recommended other equipment instead -- even items that he did not carry. That's a rare kind of honest expertise that you won't find at other ski shops, no matter how "high end" you go! I recommend him unconditionally. read more
