We are off to Bansko at feb half term, would it pay us to book lift passes, lessons, boards etc before we go or wait until we get there?

Hi
Never been to Bansko, but I have experienced all of those items being cheaper when you book them on-line and also saves a lot of time in the ski shop/lift pass office.
I know in Portes de Soliel they will actually post you your lift pass before you go making it really quick - also cheaper.
I think pre-booked skis are predominantly cheaper when booked on-line beforehand
Research the shops
Have fun :)

If you have booked wit a TO it is usually cheaper to book through them. :D

That varies, depending on the rate at which the TO agreed with the lift company. On most occasions, I have experienced a lower in resort cost, but not always.

It partly depends on the currency exchange rate - i.e. the rate the T.O. used to work out their prices, and the rate at the time you buy the lift pass in resort.
I am currently watching the Euro rate to work out the best time to pay the balance on our apartment, our ski lessons, and our lift passes. It can easily move by 10%.

Heres a good example. Tour op price for Serre Che lift pass in advance: £184
Lift price in resort 193,50 euros, which at todays rate is roughly £173.
