 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
<span> I've just pre-booked lessons for my two kids with Oxygene, x1 is a complete beginner package (ski hire inc helmet, lift and mornings instruction) for Euro 319, x1 is 2nd week skier Euro 189 for lessons + 40 for ski hire. Advanced & expert skis for me and wife are 75.50 & 87.50 respectively. Downside is Oxygene are not at 1800 but in Plagne Centre - not a problem for us.

n1ckster, I believe that Sport2000 are run on a Franchise basis, so each shop is different, and even different Sport2000 shops within one resort don't necessarily carry exactly the same range.
But being such a large international business, hopefully they make sure their franchises are run to a reasonable standard.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Totally agree with this. Avoid the crowds and the crap the hire shops save for TO hire 'deals'. |
You can haggle in hire shops? As in, on the price?

Everything is negotiable. Especially if you have a group of people wanting stuff. Everyone's in business, and unless they're the only shop in the resort, the gear is going to sit on the rack instead of earning them money.

I'm not keen on the pay in advance on line deals. Having already got your money they can give you any old cr@p.

In the case of Sport2000 you 'only' pay a nominal deposit, and the balance in resort, but I take your point.
