Eurostar Ticket On Sale!
 
Heya!!

Do you plan for a trip to Paris? Or would you like to have some French
friend of yours to stop by in London?? If you are 25 years or older,
this is an offer you cannot miss!! I've got a half-free adult ticket
for Eurostar from Paris to London, on Tuesday 24th of March, leaving
from station Gare du nord, Paris! And it could be all yours for 90
euros!

The reason i'm selling this ticket, is that i've actually bought two
return-tickets, one for myself and one for my friend, although i'm
going to meet my friend not until in London. Later we're going to
return to Paris together. We decided to book the train this way,
because it was the cheapest way to book this train for my friend (the
return ticket actually cheaper than one-way ticket!) and we definitely
wanted to experience The Famous Eurostar Train ;) in other words,
you'd be joining me for this train from Paris, up to St Pancras
station, London :)

So if you're looking for a great and cheap take-off, this is your
opportunity :) don't hesitate to ask me for more details, this is a
real bargain!

Yours, Nina
a foreign exchange student living in Paris

You need to be careful. I have heard that if you dont use the outward
part of the Eurostar ticket then the Return half is not valid. They
can do this because it will show up on their system if you have not
made the outward journey. Check the T&C carefully!

Another difficulty is that passenger's names are normally printed on
Eurostar tickets, and one of Eurostar's conditions is that named tickets
are not transferable.

As you say, it would be essential to check with Eurostar that any such
transfer would be permitted and whether they would be willing to issue
an exchange ticket.

(who has just purchased Eurostar tickets to Paris for £45 RETURN, so 90
euros for a single would definitely NOT appeal!)

Depends where you buy them from. DB and Nederlandse Spoorwegen-issued
ones do not contain a name.
