I had someone on gumtree email me and said 'make a high offer and I'll see what I can do' after it clearly says in CAPS on my ad, only face value, people eh! 'money talks Dirty cash I want you, dirty cash I need you, woh-oh ...' lol

Free market economy, baby

If there's demand, there's a price.
All of my hang-ups have gone. How I wish you felt the same.

We did that at The Police gig a couple of weeks ago...There were so many unsold tickets at the front I wrote the numbers down from ebay and gumtree... Unfortunately my boyfriend lost the piece of paper but we still managed to blag a better seat.. Whats the harm if no ones sitting there!
honesty is the best policy...

yep i agree.

i had been offered an aftershow tix face value by a "fam" last sunday... 4 tonight.
i said yes its mine got really excited...i was screaming so happily under the bluee balls in the o2 after the show last sunday. and arranged to meet her tonight.

then 2day i get a txt saying her mate who had that spare tix that was 2 go 2 me for FV is now selling it for £50 and she has another one also £50. (b coz she , the fam is now not able 2 go)

hmmm thats ok i say fab... give me her number and i'll meet herinstead with the money. £50 is ok ish but i wondered why she had changed the price so
i make a casual enquiry why the price had changed, saying does she know i'm a major fan/

i just got a txt back saying that she had been offered £300 !
not sure if that was each or both. i was 2 shocked 2 ask...i just replied that i'm a blue collar worker working 4 the bills..... i cant compete with that!
lol

shame really.... thought she was a major fan 2. duh doh!
