If I had tickets to sell - I'd be trying to offload them sooner rather than later - what are the odds that he won't do all 50 gigs ?!

I saw on ebay Jackson tickets £10,000 current offer £15,000, not good spot either.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MICHAEL-JACKSO...1%7C240%3A1318

I would never buy ticket from e-bay.

Let this be a warning.

A woman in my department bought last June tickets for a show in London for Valentines day. But her husband shift change and he was unable to get cover, she sold the tickets on.

The couple who bought the tickets where sitting in the theatre about to watch the show when the manager showed up and ejected them for using an invalid ticket.

Apparently the original buyer has this before and was told that these tickets where no transferable.

So my friend has had to refund this couple, she contacted to seller how basically said tough s**t, my friend cannot add any feedback as it is past the period to do so.

She has been speaking to e-bay who have been very helpful, and are cofident they will get her money back.

No way would i be involved in funding wacko the molester. People have such a short memory

Re: Selling tickets on for profit
 

Already been proven innocent.

Did you watch any of the trial?

Can you back up your claims?

Re: Selling tickets on for profit
 

this is the thing i don't understand in these days "WATCH OUT FOR THE NASTY TERORIST" why are tickets being allowed to be sold on ! how can you check on whos buying them and why they want to be there and who they are ?

surely these venues are very attractive targets ?

shouldnt at they know exactly who is suposed to be going and where they will be ?

i see this as far more important that trying to make us have an id to visit the Drs

plus if the music industry is so short of cash because of the teenagers downloading wouldnt it be better to get the prices these go for from the touts into the musicians pockets rather than the touts

though i do see some band by thier own tickets to make a few bucks which you would have been thier managers and record lables job to secure by better management of the tickets in the first place ;)

Re: Selling tickets on for profit
 

I think it's hilarious when you have companies that appear to be banning touting yet have no problem with online touts, and don't flatter yourselves that's exactly what you are, online touts lining your pockets by depriving people who may actually want to watch the show of tickets. People who genuinely want to go to see these shows can't because a bunch of greedy anal orifices bought the tickets to flog them on at stupidly inflated prices which they can't afford. Leaves a bad taste.

I doubt however that organisers will be interested in putting names on tickets, that would after all cost them money and they really don't care so long as the tickets get sold.

Re: Selling tickets on for profit
 

Ticket touting was banned in football 3 years ago, why there isn't a blanket ban is a little confusing. There was an article from last years Guardian...

Now, I realise football is different, because of the security implications, but still...

Re: Selling tickets on for profit
 

Yes i did watch some of the trial

Yes he had the money to pay for the best as did OJ Simpson

There's no smoke without fire TWICE.

Personally i would not give the man a red cent.

Re: Selling tickets on for profit
 

I just made an offer for 2 tickets. 50p and half a pack of fags. Wonder if my generous offer will be accepted:disturbd:
