we live & learn yes. i check the price of a 4-day twin pass on bahn.de. it was coming up to be 240 euro for a 4 day twin, 2nd class. given the exhcnage rates, that would be $300 worthless US. so i went with RE. they had a free shipping deal.

now i need to make reservations.

I guess the bottom line is you have to do your own research.  I bought a 10-day Germany-Benelux pass from Eurail (not RE), since I plan to head to Amsterdam as well.  Using the fares posted on the DB site (disounts inlcuded), I should save at least US$100, maybe more if I don't assume I get all the discounted fares.
