A few weeks ago I bought a pair or Rossi X9 Word Cups, with plates but no bindings. I brought them to my ski shop, and the guy said the only thing they have/will have are the new Rossi/FKS turntable bindings that I really dont wanna spend $300+ on. He understood and said he would keep an eye out for anything used, and told me to do the same. So Ive been doing some browsing on Ebay and found a few options....I think anyway. I dont know a whole lot about bindings, so Im looking to you guys for advice and guidance.

First: Rossi Axial 140 Race

From the same guy: Rossi FKX Pro (broken pieces, are they a big deal to replace?)

NIB Rossi/FKS 155's

and finally: Rossi 150 Pro's

So I guess my questions are, 1, are those even the right bindings to be looking at, and 2, if so, which ones should I go with?

The FKS 155 will work, none of the others will.
