Maybe, but in any case I'm in Holland and I can't buy an Interrail ticket from the site mentioned either. In fact, looking at the two sites, they're not selling the same things. The RailEurope site doesn't mention Interrail at all. And the Interrail site doesn't sell Eurail passes. If he's saying that he can't buy a Eurail pass from RailEurope, then he may have a point, but that's not what he said.

As for warrenty, liability or VAT, obviously the location of the seller is what counts. That's not unreasonable, the buyer is allowed to discriminate, the seller is not. If you don't like the terms, buy from somewhere else.

The booze-cruises are simply an excellent example of the system working and buyers taking advantages of the situation. No-one is doing anything illegal and it encourages countries to get their acts together.
