Question about tickets, take that and ebay

Mozette

Why is it worse to but tickets and sell them at a profit than it is to buy stamps, cars, paintings, baked beans, newspapers, clothes, toys or in fact anything else you care to mention? Someone has something for sale, someone else voluntarily pays £x for it. Where is your problem? I'm not a seller of tickets, but I have bought tickets on occasion for - gasp - more than face value. And good God, no one forced me!

As pointed out by someone else if the tickets fail to sell all you've achieved is doing a genuine fan out of a ticket. Albeit a fan who was willing to pay over the odds. It's surely better that someone gets to go to the gig than no-one.

You are a tout. If you were not looking to make a profit you'd have made them buy it now at face value, but I doubt you have as you're hoping for profit.

The correct method is to return the tickets to where you got them for a full refund.

I can assue you that I am not a tout, yes if they sell for more than I paid then I will be happy, I have 3 young children and am on minimum wage, however they cannot be returned for a refund, and I don't want to make too much of a loss on them. I am certainly not planning on buying tickets to sell on, I never was in the first place as we planned to go back in March when we brought the tickets.
