 Poster: A snowHead
|
While it is end of season there seemed a definite urge last week in Les Arcs to get rid of stock with at least 30% of boots and 50% of gloves.
To my surprise while I thought Arc 1950 only catered in the shops for the tastes of Russians ho's, I got a great pair of boots at 30% off and Hestra gloves with 50% off + the added bonus of euro to sterling rate being not bad at present. On a side note found buying boots in resort a great success as I had 2 issues with my right boot that got tweaked to my satisfaction over 2 separate nights at nil extra cost.
To those travelling out for Easter, don't think the shops have had a great season and great discounts now to be had.

Didn't know your tastes and those of your average Tittyana coincided... Were your high-heel skiboots not quite high enough and did some of the Swarovski crystals come unglued?

Even with 30% off, kit seems to be more expensive than the UK. Gloves in France are particularly expensive, and rarely under 80 euros anywhere I have been today in Val Cenis. It`s not as if VC is expensive as resorts go. Used skis seem to be dearer than new ones back home!

I agree, the stuff in resorts is not all that cheap even with the 30/40 % discounts, they might not have suffered as much as the UK shops?

Prices in Val T shops were very high two weeks ago - one guy ripped his board pants and went ot buy some new ones. Asked the shops ifthere were any end of season sales on and they laughed at him
