Just in time for New Year's! These were a gift, but I'm not sure I'll be able to use them.

I haven't compared the fine print against the info on the gangchon website, so I'm not exactly sure what they're worth, but it looks like these are good for a half day lift ticket, plus rental of either skis or a snowboard, plus a trip to the sauna.

I have 4. I'll sell 4 or 2 of them at one go, but not 1 or 3.

Let's do this auction-style. Please post, rather than pm, your bids.

As someone who's never been skiing/snowboarding in her life, I have no idea the approximate value of these tickets. I'm interested in buying two of them, however, as a gift for my fiance. I know you said you couldn't find the exact value on the website, but do you have a ballpark, or even better, what you're looking to get for them?

Thanks a lot.

When do they expire (i.e. when is the 2008 winter season over)?

The tickets appear to say they're good until March.

At most resorts, 4 hours of lift tickets is about 50,000-60,000 won. 8 hours about 70,000-85,000 won. 12 hours is around 95,000 or 100,000.

How many hours are the tickets good for?

Well, he wants bids. I'll start: 100k for 2.

looks like you get a morning + afternoon (0900 - 1630) OR afternoon + evening (1230 - 2230 with a shutout between 1630 - 1800?) OR evening + night session (1800 - 0200). thats up to a 63,000 value. Rental is another 30,000 for hardware, more if they throw in clothes. With the sauna you could probably call the max face value 100K, assuming there are no restrictions like weekdays only. Gift? 100K for 2 sounds a fair shout for a quick sale

Thanks for the clarification. That sounds awesome. They would make a really great gift for my man who didn't get a chance to ski when we went home last month.

A great gift indeed.. i meant if the seller received them as a gift, its a great price for something that could literally end up not worth the paper they're printed on..
