GS Ski Tunes & Alpine Race Shop 6810 Watts Road, Madison, WI 53719

"2 major problems. 1) I accidentally left my boot there (partially my mistake) and when I called back and texted he said it was no where to be found in his shop. I had him check multiple times on separate occasions. Visiting Madison 1 year later, I came back to his shop to see my boot sitting right in front of his podium/desk with my name on it in plain sight. That mistake cost me well over $500 as I had to buy new boots and no longer had the 1 solo boot laying around. 2) Owner used screws that were too long and you can see them almost pushing through the other side of the ski. I could say other things but all the other bad reviews seemed to mostly cover what I would add. STAY AWAY. BUYER BEWARE."

"Dropped off skis for for set-up and waxing. Impatient and rude to my 12 yr old son and me from the get-go because my son accidentally bumped into some merchandise. Should’ve just turned around and walked out. When I returned to get my skis, I couldn’t find my slip. That’s on me, but he couldn’t find his either and would not give me my skis until _I_ found mine. Also, gave me a hard time about coming in during his listed business hours because he needed a lunch break and wanted to take off early to go skiing with his family. Then, refusing to go back to this guy, I took my skis to REI because he’d set one up differently from the other. Bottom line, I do not recommend."

"Consigned my ski equipment and he basically stole everything. I don't live in Madison and brought my equipment in when I was in the area. I trusted him and I shouldn't have.Hard to reach, I tried to make arrangements to pick up my equipment since he was giving me the runaround about payment... "Oh, I need to do taxes first." "Oh, I can send a check soon." So, basically he stole my equipment and refuses to pay me, or work with me so I can pick up my equipment. He posts open hours, but then he's closed. Doesn't answer my emails or calls. I've submitted a complaint to the BBB as well since I have all my communications with him via email and photos of the equipment I consigned with him. He's a liar and a thief."

"Be careful! This shop does hack jobs and won’t stand behind their work. Last year they mounted new bindings on my son’s skis. This week the screws came loose as he was skiing causing him to crash. The technician at the hill said it’s because the old holes weren’t filled, he described it as an appallingly negligent mounting job. When I brought the skis back the owner did nothing to remedy the situation. I asked if he would at least give me screws so I could mount the bindings on new skis and he refused."

"Possibly the worse U Haul Service received, was overcharged and didn't receive any help from the owner. Owner didn't even want to print the receipt, stay away there is a U Haul across the highway, I think the owner should stick to SKIs and not even bother with U Haul rentals."
