Ross G Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 how can they justify that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsinho Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 What justification do they need? They're not doing it for a laugh; they're doing it to make some money and they can be sure that it'll sell out comfortably because supply << demand.

It's no different from selling on ebay to the highest seller.Tickets on ticketmaster cost £106 - £406.http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/event/3500494CAA5E1C5B?artistid=806216&majorcatid=10001&minorcatid=1Still expensive but not Seatwave expensive.I think some of the tickets get you "The Brussels Affair" vinyl box set as well.

MattJimF Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 That's not the actual site to get official tickets, that's a rip off site that hopes to be able to get tickets. They aren't on sale until tomorrow morning from Ticket Master (which oddly increases the booking fee as the ticket price increases).Actual Prices:LEVEL 4£106.00 - £406.00£106.00 (£95.00 Ticket + £11.00 Fees)£406.00 (£375.00 Ticket + £31.00 Fees)UNRESERVED STANDING£406.00£406.00 (£375.00 Ticket + £31.00 Fees)LEVEL 1£166.00 - £406.00£166.00 (£150.00 Ticket + £16.00 Fees)£406.00 (£375.00 Ticket + £31.00 Fees)FLOOR SEATING£406.00£406.00 (£375.00 Ticket + £31.00 Fees) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stroopy121 Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 I think Keith Richards was actually stillborn. He just didn't realise it. He now lives purely on heroin and tic tacs. True story.xx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kybosh Posted October 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 I actually saw the stones play at the capitol in 1982 , the tickets sold out very quickly on the day they were announced and I missed them , then some became available on the day of the gig at face value and me and a pal got one each , I think they were only about a tenner http://news.stv.tv/north/110657-the-day-rockers-the-rolling-stones-performed-in-the-granite-city/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirsten Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Hey, it's Browntowndisco! Good guy.These ticket prices are weird. I don't understand why anyone would pay that much for this. Maybe if it was in a tiny venue for a one-off, but... nope!Oh actually, wasn't Seatwave the notoriously dodgy rip-off ticket site? Lots of people paying stupid amounts and never actually getting the tickets or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoonie Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 I saw the stones on the bridges to babylon tour at Murrayfield in '99. Paid face value. £30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 well they do have medication, ex wives and rehab bills to pay the lovable old rogues. Do like their new track actually to promote yet another greatest hits album! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
