    Ticket touts.

    Man you have to love these morons. Lowest of the low and one of them has just made the silly move of posting his mobile number of ebay, selling a single seat for the rugby match on Sunday for €700.00.

    Silly tout

    Shame on you 0879107783.

        ticket master are now serching ebay for tickets to any of there events if they find some one over charging or selling 5 or 6 tickets they try to buy it find out who owns it or they just get the serial number from the pic and they cancell the tickets

        ive no problemm with some one listing a ticket starting at 0 and if it goes above the cover price then thats ok but the one like your man that list them at 700 quid

        selling a ps3 for a grand is ok if some one is that mad to get one they cant wait 2 months then fair play ,i heard one went on ebay on jap release day and sold for 15 grand sterling !!!!

            I imagine once he pockets the €700 he could afford to bin the mobile.

            I'm with KdjaC on this. Perhaps ticketmaster should be doing more to stop selling to them in the first place.

                  So they'll start forging new photos onto tickets. Anyway, this sort of thing hurts real fans... suppose I buy tickets for myself and three mates, but someone winds up unable to go because he's stuck in a Chinese finger trap or something - we can't sell that ticket on because his dumb mug is printed on it. Maybe they'd let you sell back to Ticketmaster or something, but I doubt they'll bother.

                  ^^Why I don't use touts and sell spare tickets at face^^

                    e250 for balcony.
                    e230 standing.

                    I wonder if there's a service charge on that e800 France Argentina ticket?

                      Supply and demand , I don't see the problem selling something above face value if someone is willing to pay for it. FFS aren't we all doing it everyday with fags, petrol , houses.

                          The law and finance , have you missed the Mahon tribunal , theres a bloke up there at the moment telling the country that he was having a bad time and his developer mate gave him a suitcase of cash to soften the blow from his marraige break-up. Supply and demand , I wonder ?

                            Heard a disgraceful little free marketeer diatribe from Muir McDowell a couple of weeks back on Today FM or Newstalk.

                            Basically saying people should be legally allowed sell tickets for any event for whatever the hell they wanted and it was tough luck on those without the financial resources to keep up. The beauty of the market and all that sh1te

                              Heard about a guy in Limerick who saw a X-Box 360 going on E Bay for about 300euro at the time of the X Box's release. Basically he logged on, thought he'd chance his arm by throwing in X-Box 360, saw one being advertised, photo of the box included, saw it was 300 with a minute to spare and bought it. It arrived a week later and being very excited he ripped open the box to find nothing inside. He complained on E Bay about it, but when the site checked out the claim they found that the ad never said that they were selling the computer, they had worded the ad so that legally they got away with sending what was in their pic, and he was so frantic in buying the thing that he never read the ad properly, so there was nothing E Bay or your man could do about it

                              Had to laugh when I heard about it though
