  • My City Deal posted the following on their Facebook page earlier today....
    'Viagogo have cancelled all fees for MCD customers, which means you only have the VAT and shipping extra fee.'

    This may help a little for those considering the deal. :D

    I just used my 50.00 credit towards a 58.80* KISS ticket (including the 8.80 fees) So I got a standing ticket for the MEN for 18.80 total.
    Just looked on ticketmaster and these were 45.80 with fees (now sold out)
    I wanted to go anyway and this seems very bargainous... almost too good to be true. Thanks OP.

    have a llok at the rpices online before you but this deal, i think you'llbe shocked at just how high prices can get.

    For example i booked 7 tickets for lady gaga at £57 per ticket they are now going for up to £300 a ticket some are even more. I looked because at the time of booking the tickets 1 friend couldnt afford to go, but now can, she was shocked at the prices, she thought these sites would frce people to sell them at face value.

    But £300 for a nose bleed section ticket is shocking. I can imagine leeds fest tickets could be even higher.

    They may be listing for that price but that is probably very opportunist, and they will be lucky if anyone actually buys at that price. Best waiting until a couple of weeks before the gig. Prices will plummit as the sellers won't want to be left with unsold tickets - it always happens on Viagogo, Getmein, Seatwave and E-bay. they start to go for face value, or sometimes even below face value!!

    For instance

    Whitney at the O2 this Sunday now start at around £40 each on Viagogo, for the lower section. A week today they are even cheaper at £25 in the upper section. I am sure these were £50 plus when they came out!!

    Just checked - Upper Tier are £75 each plus booking fee on See - that's face value!!

    Lower Tier are £100 each!!
