As you see amoung previous mess...@ Craig (and fans)<br />As you see amoung previous messages, a fan got in touch for the extra ticket I had. Regarding my attempt to block bids on ebay, of course it didn't work out. Only a dozen tickets available and bids are totally crazy. To be noticed that I got a message from ebay as an offer had been removed because the seller weren't respecting the rules. I also noticed that the number of tickets on viagogo has increased a bit and it seems that few tickets are being bought there.Maybe I should have been waiting a bit and maybe get my tickets for less as the lowest price has decreased from £179 to £165 in two days. Let's hope that the demand keeps weakening and prices getting down.<br /><br />@ Jubline<br />I'm searching 1 or even 2 tickets for friends who can't afford more than £100. If there's a little chance, please let me know (fargierdavid@yahoo.fr). Thanks in advance.davidaftertherainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06270755508239717590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1886767188052333210.post-26828508319268136902011-10-03T16:49:09.042-05:002011-10-03T16:49:09.042-05:00Marie, it was wonderful with the Sydney tickets. F...Marie, it was wonderful with the Sydney tickets. Fans bought extra tickets and then sold them to other fans at face value. It was the total opposite of what happened with London. <br /><br />But we were very lucky in that there were about 3 presales for Sydney, and they weren't publicized that much, so online fans had a huge advantage with that. Once the public sale happened, it was just like London, remaining tickets were gone in minutes, and everyone was very upset.Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17355214926335490436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1886767188052333210.post-46922654467279927252011-10-03T16:43:43.345-05:002011-10-03T16:43:43.345-05:00Honestly, I'm not judging you or your actions,...Honestly, I'm not judging you or your actions, as I don't know you or what your situation is, but can I just ask why you would buy tickets in the first place, if you are such a dire financial situation? <br /><br />I know it's The Cure, and we all would love to see this show, but in such a situation, buying tickets to a gig would be the last thing on my mind. <br /><br />Again, really not judging, just curious. Maybe I misunderstood.Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17355214926335490436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1886767188052333210.post-60221052689549839032011-10-03T16:41:12.942-05:002011-10-03T16:41:12.942-05:00I'm sorry, Kitty, but in my eyes it's crue...I'm sorry, Kitty, but in my eyes it's cruel to sell two tickets for 500 quid while other fans are desperate to get tickets, no matter what your financial situation is. And yes, I will definitely judge you for that and so do others. I can only hope you've learnt from this whole thing and I respect you for coming forward on COF with an explanation. <br /><br />On the other side, it's lovely to see people helping each other out with tickets. We should learn from this for when the American tickets go on sale.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16317029885431794423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1886767188052333210.post-50473832366459118662011-10-03T16:36:39.046-05:002011-10-03T16:36:39.046-05:00@ Britain Kitten

Whilst we are aware of this activity, it is very difficult for us to police as it isn't technically illegal to re-sell tickets via third party websites. We do try and cancel any tickets that we see being sold for an extortionate rate online, but this isn't always possible if the seat details or customer's information is unclear.<br /><br />I completley understand your frustration with this and would like to assure you that we are trying to combat this more frequently occurring issue.<br /><br /><br />Best wishes,<br /><br />Alice Green<br />Box Office Assistant<br />Royal Albert Hall<br />Kensington Gore<br />Londonsunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05160621774841471895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1886767188052333210.post-70418723686297446062011-10-03T13:19:28.840-05:002011-10-03T13:19:28.840-05:00thanks everyone for this.thanks everyone for this.sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05160621774841471895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1886767188052333210.post-38775139284486817542011-10-03T11:01:51.131-05:002011-10-03T11:01:51.131-05:00Thanks again, and if it gets to be too much, just ...Thanks again, and if it gets to be too much, just let me know and I'll remove it.Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17355214926335490436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1886767188052333210.post-63923219819064480912011-10-03T10:21:57.737-05:002011-10-03T10:21:57.737-05:00Hi Craig
