Homme Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Has anyone any experiences of ticket websites that sell tickets above face value? Eg website who specialise and deal with sold out events. I've been looking at a couple:- http://www.double8tickets.com http://www.ticketssoldout.co.uk I was going to go ahead with a purchase but never went through these channels before and to be honest i'm a bit wary.

Homme Posted June 3, 2009 Author Share Posted June 3, 2009 Its for a t in the park ticket for a friend who returns from Australia at the start of July. I've got my ticket but she's scared it'll be leaving it very tight by the time she's back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homme Posted June 3, 2009 Author Share Posted June 3, 2009 I've heard of viagogo. Can't believe i didn't come across that one whilst browsing. So can anyone recommend viagogo then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ribble Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 They all end up being pretty expensive, looked last week for standing ticket and they were being sold at ?20 more than face value which i would have paid, however when I clicked through I was charged almost another ?30 in admin charges! They are all pretty much the same but a friend has used Scarlett Mist before and said they were pretty good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the main thing i want to know is if they send you a ticket at the end of it all?!! Don't want to splash out all that cash and get bumped off!
