By the time I got home from work, less than seven hours after they went on sale at face value, the gig I wanted to go to had sold out and touts had put them on Ebay for upwards of £100. If anyone can honestly find that defensible, then I can only assume they've never been in the position of desperately wanting to go to a gig but not being able to get tickets and not being wealthy (or bloody stupid) enough to pay that sort of cost to a selfish twat who's only out for his or her self.

Well i'd like to thank a very nice tout for enabling me to get tickets to a Manics gig last year!

Jesus... If the thread is this heated the gig is going to be pretty tough.

Each room comes with a free pump, not sure what that is about?

Tim, please clarify.

It's difficult to put into words, but suffice to say, you won't be disappointed.

Good for you - not everyone can pay tout prices. We've all been tempted to pay over the odds these things, but of course every time someone does, we're encouraging the behaviour.

We only had to pay £5 more per ticket! I told you he was a nice tout!

There's no such thing! They can give it you for less than face value and they're still pricks!

[YouLoveMe]

I'm already pretty depressed at the highly likely prospect that I won't get a ticket, but good luck to everyone for tomorrrow.

Everyone?

[mrsmanics]

I hope you get one. I know how gutted I'd have been if I'd missed the Truro gig, with it being so local.

Curlyboa, you were lucky, very few touts price anything so low.
