I'm noticing that there are a lot of end of the season sales going on right now. When is the best time to buy gear- either clothing or skis and boots? If I wait until the summer, will the prices be even lower?

Boots? Full retail, baby! I'll do anything to get into what fits!With skis good time to buy is end of season sales but you need to be flexible with your choice. With boots I wouldn't be waiting till sales as there are more sizes and models available in the beginning of the season.
If you have any interest in used stuff (not boots), there are ski swaps in during early season. In the southeast (NC, VA) those are in Oct, Nov, Dec. Places closer to more ski areas may have a "ski show" in the fall.I'm noticing that there are a lot of end of the season sales going on right now.
