    160 is insane.... thats about 3+ times the price of a lot of better bands who have been playing this year...


    I totally agree - If people didn't pay these silly prices, they wouldn't get away with it.

    Don't tell me how expensive these tickets are, as i brought 4 tickets for me my husband and two daughters, at the same time my husband went and booked our family a 2 week holiday in the Algarve.Got in touch with ticketmaster who do not do refunds so it looks like i may have to lose a lot of money.Can i sell these tickets on ebay ?

    yes, you should be able to sell them on ebay, dunno how much they are going for but have a look and put them on, better than you being totally out of pocket.

    With Madonna playing in Wembley from this Tuesday (1st August), there are a lot of ebay seller in a panic and cutting their losses.

    I bought two tickets for the 3rd for half the face value last night, even at half face value I was the only bidder, and as I also paid by Paypal they lost quite a lot on the sale!

    There really are some bargains to be snapped up for those who are interested in going.

    Its also quite a nice feeling getting a bargain at the expense of those greedy ebayers.

    The tickets never were sold out Madonna does this every time, really high prices and released in small batches so it looks like they have sold out then next day release more.

    This happened two years ago, I even wrote to one ebay seller the night before the concert pointing out his auction ended one day after the concert was over, he wrote back offering them to me for next to nothing and would meet me to exchange money and tickets.

    Grab them while you can, and whats the best you get.

    Me £240 for 2 tickets - paid £120
