Scarletmist.
Seatwave only give you the money after the concert which might be too late if you desperately need it for christmas.
Ebay is hit and miss with tickets, I have a 2nd row Osmonds ticket but no-one bought it so who knows.:wave: Smile, you only get one life, LIVE IT.0 -
Scarlet Mist - used to buy and sell and very easy.
Band website is a very good suggestion, usually forums area with trades etc for gig tickets on it.
We sold on some kylie tickets last year on a new mums forum my wife was registered with, so you can sell them on basically anywhere.
Best to let fans have them so try the website first.0 -
Be aware of scarletmist the contract is with you and the individual who wants to buy the tickets. I sold some muppett tickets and they asked to pay nearer the time we agreed she would pay three weeks before the concert. No bother says I just happy to have given them away at cost price. Three weeks to go and I tried for 6 days before getting a reply to my emails, and they had managed to get better tickets than mine.
You try and do someone a favour.......
I would sell them at cost price on ebay with buy it now.You cant take the trousers off an elephant!0 -
had same sort of problem with scarletmist . posted some spare tickets at cost price to a sell out gig which i could have sold at a profit on ebay , guy rings me and wants them , great agree to meet at the gig ,rings him day before to arrange a meeting point and then he dosen`t show up waiting an hour till gig almost started and not answering his mobile , soft lad here left with 2 spare tickets and £60 out of pocket . guess were i will sell my spare tickets next time0

a bit of advice, maybe end your listing....start them thurs about 8 pm, for a 3 day listing which will end prime time sunday evening, monday is also a good night so could start fri...i would do 2 listings of 2 x tickets, start them off at 99p...terryifying I know but there is too much competition and people will look for the bargains first....
Although if you have bad feedback people won't bid either...the gig is sold out...so hopefully you will get close to your money back.....
Good Luck........
And of course you must refund the difference should you make a profit....:)0 -
OK, now listed on 'get me in', 'scarletmist' 'manchester gumtree', 'vivastreet', 'local classifieds' 'free-ads' & 'ebay'!!! MSE member 'i like shoes' has also kindly put a notice up at her work as well!!!
I WILL SELL THESE TICKETS!!! PMA - anyone remember the Lindford Chrsitie ad???!!
Merry Christmas
