Is there any secret to getting the price of a Euro Star ticket.



My experience at Waterloo was that the sales person was determined to drive
the price of the ticket up as high as she could. Indeed I got the feeling
from several encounters with the sales staff that their real job was to
avoid selling any tickets at any price.



Quite how this business model works I have no idea.



The simple question "What does it cost to go to Paris" was answered by
another question: "When do you want to travel?"



I want to travel when I can afford to do so. I might be prepared to trade
off a slightly higher fare for more convenient scheduling but I want to see
all the facts in front of me.



Giving out the facts does not seem to be part of Euro Star's ethos. I have
certainly never seen all of the options laid out.
