People are bidding high to P-off the sellers, teach them a lesson for being greedy, so you probably don't want to be part of it!
People with a genuine reason for sale will (should) list them as a BIN, for pretty much the face value. There is at least one person on this board with just that, a genuine reason to sell on, and he/she isn't trying to be extortionate.
The idiots wanting to make a fortune by buying the tickets today and selling them on, will have a headache sorting out the mess (well, thats the plan by some anyway)0 -
That explains it then, I bet the seller thinks his lucks in at the moment then.0

What, you believe the seller thinks he has made a million?
I thought your initial post was tongue in cheek.0 -
Just looked, the winning bidder has more than 500 feedback?
Do doubt they would bid as could be liable to a claim in small claims for that sum!!
I think it's true, that's how much it sold for!0 -

Far too smart for me.0

There is one on there, by someone particularly thick.
Starting bid is £100,000 (has no one told him that no one will actually pay that!)
Best bit is though:
Q: £10 P&P on £100k plus tickets, your having a laugh
A: I'm willing to wave P&P

83.3% pos fb, I bet people will be rushing to "take that" off his hands. Hope they leave his hands for his waving though.0
