How about the person with the biggest font at 4pm wins? Soon, they will use a font so big, it will destroy them all......

I have gone and deleted the posting for an REM ticket on sale for more than its face value. It being against spirit of things, etc around here.

thats grand Eoghan, i was selling it for the price i bought it for, no profit. didnt want to make a loss, cos that's frankly ridiculous.
but to be honest didnt see the note on the board stating no tics for > face value, so fair enough, they are the rules.

good work eoghan.

Selling tickets above face value is touting no matter what way you try to spin it and should not be tolerated on Cluas.

the only reason these 'touts' exist is because PEOPLE ARE STUPID ENOUGH TO BUY THEYRE OVERPRICED TICKETS. get a grip everyone. if you want to buy an ovepriced ticket go ahead an buy it. THEYRE NOT SCAMSTERS THEYRE OPPERTUNISTS. if people are dumb enough to fund these oppertunists on theyre heads be it. it shouldnt be causing so much outrage amongst us intelligent more logical folk who realise this oxegen festival comes around every year and hey if you want to go that bad we shudnt be the ones complainin bout you paying way over the odds its a personal decision......like religion....hehhehhehe.......

The problem is that they buy tickets for the sole purpose to sell them on, thus denying real fans a chance of buying them first time around.

That and I doubt that they pay tax on their profits

And they are breaking the contract they have with the promotor

no i think the real problem is the people who buy the tickets... if people were smart enough to not buy them off touts in the first place touts wouldnt exist because there would be no market for them in the first place.. so appeal to people who fund them to stop because theyre just as immoral as the touts themselves.........

Not true at all Beelzebub, I tried to get a ticket for Oxegen when they first went on sale but missed out.
Now I'm sure there where alot of people who got some with no intention of ever going, they just want to tout them and make money.
So if I bought a ticket from a tout beacuse I really wanted to go am I as "immoral" as them?

It must also be noted, that the refusal of ticket issuers (TM in most cases) to give refunds & resell unwanted tickets fuels the Touts as it leaves the punter pretty much with nowhere else to go put sell his ticket to a tout.
