Ski Republic Hire

Hi All,

I'm organising a trip for a dozen of us late January staying in Meribel Mottaret and have been looking at ski hire deals. Now I know I can sort hire through J2ski but I've also seen Ski Republic advertising 2 for 1 deals which seem pretty good.

However the chalet owner I've booked with has mentioned that he thinks they may be in some financial difficulties and could suggest a better bet for ski hire in Mottaret.

Now I know he may have his favourites and may also get some commission from places but he used to have the link to Ski Republic on his webpage which has now been removed, so does he really know something?

Anyway, has anyone used Ski Republic in the past, or know anything about them? Or, even better, does anyone have recommendations for ski hire in Mottaret, obviously competitively priced but more importantly good, well maintained kit?

Cheers

Paul

Funny, we were only talking about this mob at the show on Thursday, well I was with Admin anyway. Their deals look good at 2 for 1. I believe they have faced a lot of local resistence with talk of vandalism and break ins but the rumour is this is just self generated publicity.
Bottom line for me would be if I can make a significant saving, I'd look into it.
Have a word with Mr Admin on here though, his opinion counts for a lot in this area.

Hmmmm I did read that Ski Republic had been having problems in France, with having their premises vandalised. So my feeling is that it would be a safer bet for you to get the generous J2ski deal with SkiSet, and have a choice of shops in resort.

Ski Republic reads as too good to be sustainable, great idea though.
