re: Ski Shops in Bansko?

Yip there are quite a few shops in the main street leading down from the gondola. (I know because I visited some of them when the lifts were closed due to winds last year!)
If you are wanting top class gear by big name brands you will probably pay the same as anywhere else...but there are other shops where you can buy cheaper stuff. I seem to recall some DIEL and SPYDER branded stuff that seemed remarkably cheap....could it be that it was slightly iffy and not quite kosher??!!!
Best deals ...

Best deals at the moment have to be in TK MAXX...my local store already has stuff on CLEARANCE racks!!!

Nice one cheers for that. I have got everything I need but may need to get some new sunglasses as my Oakleys are not polarized, oh and maybe a new fleece! Cool Booze
