Im trying to get Cdg to Bordeaux tix and saw an option, in French, which I believe means I can hold a reservation before buying?
"de poser un simple option a cinfirmer ulterieuremen"
Sorry about autocorrect spelling. Is this true?
Does This Mean I can Hold TGV Tix before purchase?

It is true but the hold time is very short, a day or two if I remember correctly. Most would probably do well to simply complete the transaction.
Yes, but as Sarastro says, make up your mind quickly as "ultérieurement" isn't a long time - a few days at most.
Merci, sarastro. I thought that's what it meant but didn't have my French brain plugged in
!
We were posting at the same time St Cirq- yes decision will be made tomorrow.
> but the hold time is very short, a day or two ..
I had a different experience. In mid February I was looking at a reservation for May or June, and the SNCF site offered an option time of a week or so. It also mentioned a fee of about €5 or maybe less - non refundable.
