TGV purchases in the US
I need to get from London to Paris in Aug, one way, planning on taking the TGV direct. I'm looking for the least expensive way to do this, purchasing from the US. I've searched FT and didn't find much, yet haven't really beaten on Google yet. Ideas?
Thanks!

definitely www.eurostar.com try different country sides (sometimes interesting promotions and you can still pick up the tickets at the departure station if you can't get them sent online. there are several threads in this forum, in france forum and maybe even in Uk & london forum.
ps: the only person who ever took a tgv under the channel was tom cruise in mission impossible. all other have to take the eurostar

I did some digging this morning, working a few sites, and it seems to be about $225 for super-restricted 1st, or $450 for super-1st (meal included). That's for one-way. What's confusing is, when I plugged in some round-trip dates, the round-trip price appeared to be less then a one-way ticket. Is this normal?
