sebdevlin 10 Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 set an account up and bid silly money for them. boycott all ebay tickets. mills did a similar thing last year.I did that last year as well using a fake account and it not only got banned but some of the grumpy people sent quite peed off messages to it to which of course I sent back a lovely reply back to each of them.

jembie 10 Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 I am glad they jumped in quickly.Thing is, What happens to those tickets now? Are those people just not going to go? which means the tickets could have gone to someone else...IT MAKES MY BLOOD BOIL!!!! :grrr: :tdown: Quote My CreationsMy Autographs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono 57 Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 I hope you're all reporting the items that appear. I do fear, though, someone will just put them on smaller auction websites.I e-mailed some out of curiosity to find how much they were looking for with the tickets each day and they are all asking for £100. I cannot imagine anyone would risk that with no guarantee of getting in. You'd be a fool to do so.I love that this guy is after £520 for his Saturday tickets.

sebdevlin 10 Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 This is off the official mailout the bit in bold would worry me the most if I was silly enough to pay the inflated prices on ebay.PLEASE DON'T RISK BUYING TICKETSValid tickets for Radio 1's Big Weekend are free and there are no tickets onsale through any outlets.Each ticket is individually barcoded and will be scanned on the gate. Theyalso have names and addresses on them and you may be asked to showidentification to prove ownership of the tickets. Our barcode system also means people can invalidate the tickets we send them and ask for replacements. Therefore if you buy tickets you will have no way of knowing if the barcode is valid until you reach the entrance. Quote Download the Adam and Joe & Jon Richardson podcasts now!

Jono 57 Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 I'd be very intrigued to see if that really is the case though. Last year they scrapped the bar code system as they were worried residents would get angry if they were turned away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
