Thanks guys.

And this might sound stupid, but i see that each sale has X amount of days left. Is it an auction site then? Or can you just buy it immediately?

I have just bought a single ticket from Viagogo for 21st in Bk 103 row G for £100 plus £17 for all the extras.

I thought about it a lot, but it felt marginally more ethical than ebay, and I thought the price was OK for such a great position near the piano. It's the piano solos that melt my heart and, although I will only see P's gorgeous back, it will be special to be that close on the final night.

I waited for a while.. seriously considered paying quite a bit more for another block that looks good..

In that time someone came along and bought one ticket, and i was able to buy the 2 tickets.

I would imagine that if it is you will be able to get a refund from Viagogo - or you can phone them from the O2 enforcing their guarantee of at least a better seat - but I would think it was highly unlikely anyway.
