Nope, don't get this one...sorry.
Yeah - sorry you might be too old - or too young - who knows !!
Iwas quoting something that summersea said about one of your replies a little earlier ( when she had pulled her head out of your ....you know the rest ! )
its the girl who co starred in "buffy - in some film I cant remember the title ,when she was talking about playing the flute :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:0 -
have to take your word for that - although personally I tend to doubt it - as you must be aware the majority of people who buy tickets have very very little feedback or none at all and have just reg to Ebay to solely get festival tickets - so it means nothing to them to not buy YOUR tix when cheaper ones come up nearer the time ( maybe to near ! ) or BIN`S - so the longer you leave it the less they are worth ) maybe - its a volatile market )
- but then you allready know that dont you !?
I know exactly what I'm doing having flogged V tickets for Weston Park for the last few years.
All my tickets are sold BIN with immediate payment.
I make an excellent profit on them, ship them as stated via SD and have happy, return customers.
I've also done the same for all 5 Ashes test matches this year which earned me enough for a family holiday and I've got tickets up for another sold out event in October.
I would suggest that I'm damn good at it and play within the rules and also use them to my benefit.Terms & Conditions Apply0 -

Point to me in ebays t&cs where it states that there is an excemption for ticket sales.... no didnt think so!
Lady - as much as I value your comments - you must realise that you dont have a clue about this subject - its your opinion and you are entitled to it along with everyone else - but it is ill informed0 -

So - you would be happy with someone reg with Ebay for less than a week tying your tickets up for one week whilst they may acquire cheaper elsewhere ( on or off Ebay ) and watch the market go down ?:rolleyes:0 -

sorry and how would you know what i do and dont have any idea about!! you have no idea what i have and am selling on ebay or any other site for that matter.
Funny how every other member on this thread and your previous has the same views as each other and there not your views!!!!!!
My opinion is not ill informed at all, there is nothing you can do to force someone to pay within 24 hours without listing as buy it now with immediate payment.,
If someone paid after 6 days and you refunded them you would probablt get a negative and NPS and you couldnt even do a non paying bidder to get back your wasted fees because the buyer would have proof via paypal that they paid and i doubt they would agree to a mutual considering they had just lost out on tickets that they won and paid for within the specified time allowed by ebay the company YOU choose to sell your tickets on!
Your the one thats ill informed and i suggest you read up on ebays T&Cs!!! and urgently.0 -
So - you would be happy with someone reg with Ebay for les than a week tying tour tickets up for one week whilst they may acquire cheaper elsewhere ( on or off Ebay ) and watch the market go down ?:rolleyes:
thats a risk i would be taking, the same as if i sold a DVD or cd and someone else listed it 2 days later for £3 less my buyer may think hang on im not paying for this one at £10 ill buy the £7 one instead. Its a risk every single seller takes.
If you want security use buy it now with immediate payment.0 -

As I know what I'm doing I never have that problem.
Mine always sell at a very high price as buyers trust me.
You should try that approach.Terms & Conditions Apply0 -
