The Rochdale Dog Rescue has been donated a pair of £95 each tickets for the adele concert in Birmingham.

The lady donating them will meet the winners at the venue as security requires the original buyer to collect them.

So far the bidding is only £320 pounds for the pair. I keep reading how people are paying thousands for dodgey tickets on ebay etc. which may not be valid if the original buyer doesnt collect them

So how could rochdale dog rescue get more and higher bids without violating any forum t and c? Obviously the more money for the dogs the better and the bidding closes in two days.:(

Any genuine and legal ideas?

  • Put them on eBay? You can make it a charity listing. If 100% of the winning bid goes to charity, the seller pays no listing or FV fees. eBay can pretty much guarantee you a world wide audience for your sale.

    They're going for £24k apparently, I heard on the radio this morning.

    So kind of a legit statement.

    !!!!!!?! How can gig tickets ever be worth £24k?? For that much money I'd be expecting Adele to live with me for 6 months and do the ironing.

    She'd be out the window after five minutes of her faux Cockney rambling ;)
