I received a private message offering me a ticket at €80 or somehwere around that mark, when i replied pointing out the rules of the forum this is the reply i got. I informed the poster that regardless of the price he may have paid tickets were not to be sold over face value on the site, this is th e reply i got


QUOTE=setanta1966]I aint ticket touting my friend....Because I live in Germany and from an earlier posting I have been asked by 4 people on here to get tickets for them on ebay.de , which i have duly obliged at no profit to myself.
I am only helping prople out cos tickets r a bit cheaper on ebay.de...and most sellers only deliver to Germany.I am only giving them at the same price i paid for them........HOW IS THAT TOUTING.....please get ur facts right[/QUOTE]

As i said there is a rule on this site forbidding the slae of tickets above face value, if you have a problem with this contact the moderators, my personal problem is receiving an unsolicited pm offering me a ticket when i have spare tickets which will be allocated to people i know go to all or most away games when i arrive in Stuttgart.

Moving this to support. I don't see why he'd be pm'ing you out of the good of his health though.

Mad but its mild. Got offered 4 tickets (2 pairs) in the irish section (away end) last week by a neighbour who works for a company who got them through their corporate allocation (which wasnt cut!!!). He gets the tickets for nothing (company comps) and he always sells them on at a higher price. He was looking for €250 for 2 but luckily EventIM sorted me out ages ago as I knew the FAI would screw me (even with 10 years + bb loyalty), so I told him where to go.

He has been at this for years, I have tried to report him but the powers that be have no interest in taking any action.

bet you his employer might not be impressed as they probably could give them to someone who would like them! Why not drop them a line, saying youve been offered the tickets at a high price and just want to confirm are they genuine :D :D :D
