Era / Decade
2010s-2020s. Modern construction using contemporary ratchet bindings and aluminum framing typical of recent entry-level to mid-range outdoor gear.
Material
Aluminum alloy frame for lightweight durability, HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) decking, steel crampons/cleats, and synthetic nylon/plastic ratchet straps. Poles are telescopic aluminum with foam or rubber grips.
Condition
Very Good to Excellent. The decking shows minimal scuffing, the graphics are crisp, and the ratchet bindings appear fully functional without brittle plastic. The poles show no significant bends or deep scratches.
Demand Level
Moderate (Seasonal). Demand is 'Hot' from November through February but 'Low' during summer months. Demand is localized to regions with snow.
Resale Value
Estimated Resale Value
$45.00 - $75.00. Value peaks in late autumn and early winter; low value in off-season.
Estimated Retail Value
$80.00 - $110.00 for the full set (shoes, poles, and bag).
Comparable Sales
Similar MTN or entry-level Yukon Charlie's sets regularly sell for $50-$65 plus shipping on eBay. Local sales on Facebook Marketplace often hit the $60 mark during the first snowstorm of the year.
Description
Complete MTN Snowshoes adventure set featuring a pair of lightweight aluminum-frame snowshoes with adjustable ratchet bindings for a secure fit. The set includes a pair of matching gold/yellow telescopic trekking poles with ergonomic grips and a black nylon carry bag for easy transport. Perfect for beginner to intermediate hikers on groomed trails or moderate powder.
Key Features
Includes matching poles and carrying case which increases resale appeal; easy-to-use ratchet binding system; lightweight 'teardrop' shape for natural gait; integrated toe crampons for traction on icy surfaces.
Authenticity Indicators
Clear brand logos ('MTN Snowshoes') printed on the heel and toe deck. Consistent hardware quality. High confidence in authenticity as this is a mid-market brand not typically targeted for counterfeiting.
Flaws to Note
Minor surface scratches on the bottom crampons (normal use); slight dirt on the binding straps. No structural integrity issues or missing components visible.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace for local 'no-shipping' sales to avoid high shipping costs due to length; eBay or Mercari for a wider audience; Geartrade for a specialized outdoor enthusiast market.
Selling Tips
Highlight the 'Full Set' aspect—it's much more attractive than just the shoes. Mention the weight capacity (usually printed on more detailed specs, often 150-200lbs for this size). Sell between Nov-Jan for maximum profit. Note that these are 'all-terrain' or 'trail' shoes, not technical mountain climbing shoes.
