Quoting from the Crystal Ski Brochure 2006 for Borovets.

"Ski pack prices in resort are considerably higher than featured in this brochure, we therefore recommend pre-booking before you travel."

Thanks Pete. The brochures would say that though wouldn't they as they want you to get them through them ;-) Last year it was certainly cheaper to buy them in the resort from this guy whose details I can't remember!!

I would not risk it buying in the resort, just in case you cannot find "this guy" and end up on your first day paying over the odds or shopping around and wasting the day.
Thats just my opinion
