The 2nd to last weekend of October. At the Benton County Fairgrounds, 110 SW 53rd Street, Corvallis, Oregon. See map and directions. New and used items for adults and children. Friday 6 pm to 9 pm There are tickets available starting at noon on Friday. Each ticket costs $1 and allows one person to enter. Each ticket has a number and reads "Be in line by 5:45 pm in numbered order". This allows for crowd control and limits the amount of time shoppers must wait in line to get in to the sale. It is possible to pay $1 at the door to enter, after ticket holders have entered. Yes. Ticket sales are limited to 5 per person. Corvallis Ski Swap accepts cash and personal checks with appropriate identification. We also accept VISA, Mastercard and Discover Card. We accept debit cards with the VISA/Mastercard logos on them. We do not have the separate PIN pad required for some types of debit cards. Sorry. Two non-profit organizations: Corvallis Mountain Rescue Unit and Santiam Pass Ski Patrol. Find more information at their respective web sites:

Friday 9 am to 5 pm.
There is a 20% commission on all items sold. For example, if you sell something for $20, you will receive $16.
Alpine bindings must be indemnified. Why? Manufacturers will not stand behind unindemnified bindings and ski shops will probably refuse to work on them.
The National Ski and Snowboard Retailers Association puts out a list of indemnifiable bindings. For your benefit, we have provided the list issued in October 2006, covering the winter of 2006/2007. For the official list, please see the NSSRA web site.
Equipment found to be damaged or in bad repair may be removed from the sale.
Clothing must be clean and in good repair.
