Just replied to another post elsewhere on the forum re tickets for sold-out gigs and thought this site was worth a mention here. It is an ethical ticket selling site, where tickets are bought and sold for face value & fees.


I have no connection to the site, but have used it successfully for both purchases and sales.


It's not ED-specific, so I stuck it in the Lounge.

not just ticket touts but extortionate fees slapped on my ticketmaster the like. Makes my blood boil. I want to walk in to golden discs and buy the tickets for the gig without fee's but you can't any more. Ok ok I know it is more handy to buy online but bloody hell the fees are astronomical.

Some places charge a very reasonable booking fee... for example... ?2 for the entire booking - you can book for as many concerts at the same time for as many tickets as you like AND the money goes towards the company, one that is self funding and in desperate need for the help.


I completely grrrrr at companies, who have loads of funding from external sources and for a "non profitable" company can employ silly ppl in incredibly high and pointless positions for incredible amount of money, who whack on a fee PER ticket... sorry I'll stop ranting!


Ticket touts... if you're silly enuff to pay their prices then tis ya own fault :p

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
