    well you can't blame me this time, i didn't oreder this lot. You can't blame moneymaking ebayers- whoever gets their first has every right to do whatever they want with them. If they wana give sumone who missed out an oppertunity in exchange for money- so be it. good idea really

    Its a tough world, and making money outta freebies is a good idea. Don't think we're gona agree on this- difference of opinion, but i am sorry you can;t go- my dad wanted to go aswell

    Goodwood tickets are not need for under 12's so if your going only one ticket needed per adult and one child UNDER 12.

    I have just phoned and checked. But please double check if you are going. Dont want to get shouted at!!!!! (virtual of course)


    it actually says on the booklet you get with the tickets, children under 12 go free - so it's official
    Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it.
    Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.

    'moneysaving' not 'moneymaking'- ie ripping off fans who want to go

    All this will do is stop the ST offering free tickets in future- so everyone will miss out

    I agree, these offers may not be made available in the future, however, some of the ones on E-bay show the numbers clearly, so there might be problems on the gate for the people who buy them?

    I will be using my tickets but if I couldn't I would have offered them to someone on MSE.

    Let's hope the greedy antics of the few do not spoil it for everyone in the future. :mad:

    i did say we'd have to disagree, in my mind making money is an excellent idea, which means you have more money (always good) but thats just me. Yer i nearly offered tickets on here to sum thing, can't even remeber what event but ebay seems judt a good, i give them to sum1 hu wants them, at a price. Thats like saying those hu abuse simcard offers are mean coz they stop people who actually want a simcard for their own use having one. thats rubbish, i don't no anyone that doesn;t get them for financial gain. similarly, i know many people who do these tickets for the same reason

    Its life and anyway, i didn't even order these goodwood ones so i dunno why i mentioned it

    Yes but when it says these tickets are not for resale on the website it is illegal and unfair for those who would actually like to go!
