If it's not late now...
Beograd - Sofia return ticket with Railplus is 30,90 EUR.
You can also travel cheaper, avoiding international fare, buying return ticket Beograd - Dimitrovgrad (1523 RSD with Railplus) and then buying ticket from border to Sofia from Bulgarian conductor which is arround 4 BGN, 2 EUR or 250 RSD (payable in all 3 currencies usually).

Hm.. Tried today at ŽS agency to see the global price for Sapsan Moskva - Sankt Peterburg, and for "Rossiya" Moskva - Vladivostok, for 13th December, but it gives reservation only for the same prices as before. Maybe selling of global prices will be implemented from 9th December.

Is it true, that the Slovakia-Russia City-Star ticket will cease to exist in 2013? Well, there are rumors (=non-official level, but rather trusted source) about "cease to exist" coming from the Russian side, while on the contrary ZSSK in a more or less official reply says that CityStar will still be available in 2013. Apparently somebody is wrong, but it is a bit difficult to say now which side 
It's not the first time ZSSK gives the wrong information. I have experience getting totally different answers on last day of old timetable, and first day of new timetable. According to other sources the will be no City-Star RZD-ZSSK via UZ (via BC/PKP unknown), no RZD-ZS and no RZD-ZCG. RZD-BDZ is unknown. UZ East-west tariff for 2012/2013 is published: http://zakon1.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/z1834-12Also RZD reservation list for 2012/2013 is published: http://www.uic.org/IMG/pdf/information_rzd_2012-2013_stand_09_12_12_.pdfInteresting is that all Sapsans, and lot of other domestic RZD trains become Global price (including 1/2 "Rossiya" Moskva - Vladivostok, 9/10 "Baikal" Sankt Peterburg - Irkutsk, 7/8 Novosibirsk - Vladivostok, 1/2 "Premium" Moskva - Kazan, 15/16 "Premium" Moskva - Yekaterinburg, and others). It will be interesting to see prices in western Europe for them, although I suspect they will be expensive...

TCV tariff for Italy looks quite cheap, but I heard it's valid for regional trains only. Do you have any information is it possible to buy surcharge for IC trains? And also, is TCV ticket valid for Trenord regional train Tirano - Milano?

Interesting also - on RZD counter you can buy City Star to Slovakia via Cadca(Gr), where the RZD, BC, PKP and ZSSK part is calculated as City Star, and gives 50% discount for fellow passenger. and CD part, which is calculated as normal price, without discount for fellow passenger.
By the way, from yesterday ASU PP (UZ) is connected to EPA, so it is now technically possible do electronicaly book UZ domestic and international trans.

btw, also interesting that ZSSK part in the above reference is counted using regular tariff (basically a sum) instead of more expensive standard ZSSK part (which would have been applied in case 'Ekonomnye zeny' were issued for like Moscow-Bratislava or so).
On RZD counters if "normal" price is cheaper than predefined price for City Star (Ekonomnaya cena) for any railway on the route of City Star ticket, "normal" price is calculated. In practice, it's only for stations located really close to border point. I don't know is that rule also valid for other railways issuing City Star tickets.

I found answer why ZSSK gave me weird price for CityStar for two passengers. Obviously, on UZ part there is no discount for fellow travelers, which can be seen here:

It is available, but only with non-computerized tickets (unless ZSSK stopped issuing those). While with 'standard' ones, system just doesn't allow to choose any point after last real RZD station, at least it used to be like this.
They issue only computerized tickets, at least they told me so one year ago.

It's even possible to guess where the mistake comes from, imho, from the issue regarding 'gr.', so if ZSSK official checked via computer (probably did), then it wouldn't show CityStar option for 'gr./fr.' points, but only East-West.
So, if I understood correctly City Star option for border points isn't available?

Hmmm, quite weird things from ZSSK...
Today I sent e-mail to them requiring about City Star on route Šturovo - Tumangan(Gr) and they gave me the price of 268,78 EUR via UZ, which is totally different then they told me earlier in December and also different from info I got from RZD side (both varied between 165-168 EUR) for RZD>1500 km.
I thought maybe somebody incompetent answered me and mistakenly gave me the price for one way east-west tariff ticket. So after that I asked for the price of City Star Šturovo - Ussuriisk for 2 persons, and they gave me the price of 295,92 EUR via UZ which also doesn't fit the previus...
At least one of those prices (if not both) they gave is wrong...

Currently train from Bucharest goes only till Kapikule (Turkish border station), and because of the track reconstruction, Turkish railways organized the bus to takeover passengers from Kapikule to Istanbul. It is likely that everything will be same in mid-April.
