Oh Paul relax,everything will be fixed and I'm sure you'll have the chance to see them,just wait for more dates ;)
And next time,be the one to buy all tickets and say 'Oh I was expecting my whole family to come,but they didin't manage to!' :P
So you can take your revenge!
No- i'll buy all the tickets and paper-cut the idiots to a slow and painful death. But in between the paper cut and death, there is A LOT of salt... |

www.gumtree.com it's like some sort of community thing, people offer to sell their unwanted tickets on there too. Usually not as expensive as ebay. |

| Why the heck not? some people are short on cash, there are people willing to pay the money for it, they've got a legitimate 'business' there - fair play to them - people who are 'really fans' should buy tickets sooner/straight away to avoid disappointment when they clearly know this sort of thing goes on |

Sometimes it is just not possible to get tickets sooner tho... |

Hmm are you one of em?!?
There are cases where fans are unable to buy tickets sooner/straight away eg.strapped for cash/unable to get online or buy over the phone etc.
I just don't think it's right that these greedy bastard ticket touts sell at way over the top prices. |

Agreed. I started work at 7am this morning (and every morning!) and don't work anywhere in a place that has computers. And i'm not allowed to use a phone at work. So i had no chance!
I even had fellow boardies on the case for me, and i'm so grateful that they tried for me :) Still, it's just not right that people make a business out of this sort of thing. |
