Considering they are charging 1700 for 4 nights and a two game package, 2349 for 8 nights and an extra game doesnt seem as steep.  Mind you each package are before tickets!
 
The first package is 425 a night whereas the other is only a mere 293 per night!!

WHAT A RIP OFF
 
What did you expect
 
What does it matter what they are charging seen as you have already booked your own trip
 
I could understand if they were the only source of tickets
 
If people are happy to pay for this they will, its not compulsory for anyone to travel with Abbey.
I know nothing :-)

What an absolute rip off. If you went over to Poland with no tickets and ended up paying a tout three times the face value for each game over there, it would still work out a hell of a lot cheaper than Abbey. I hope nobody books these.

Even if i paid £300 each for 2 tickets i'd still be £500 better off. Crazy prices.

Sure you could go on a weeks holiday pretty much anywhere in the world for that money

I have to say it is a rip-off. Used to think these were a handy idea for ppl who couldnt get tickets. And in fairness sometimes they are useful. Not this package. 1700 just to arrive in the day of the Spain game and leave straight after the Italy game, and match tickets are extra!!! So 1700 to live in Gdansk between matches. Terrible.

Honest question - why are these rip off merchants allowed to advertise for free on this forum?
