Morning
Somehow (long story, full of various levels of teenage angst and trauma) we have ended up with 7 one bleeding direction tickets to sell, for next feb. trouble is, they are single seats
They are on seat wave at the moment, one has sold but others aren't shifting.
What's the best strategy? Drop price to get rid of now, or is demand likely to increase nearer the time? Any other decent web sites?
Don't have the physical ticket yet so guess eBay not good option
Just looking to cover cost really
Cheers - in anticipation of mucho abuse!
I always used to sell spares outside the gig.
Once got £10 for a £2.75 Iron Maiden ticket - and I was only an 'ickle 14 yr old at he time.
I've started to sell stuff using [url= http://www.gumtree.com/ ]Gumtree.com[/url] So far has been a lot less hassle than Fleabay and no fees either.
Ebay is fine, just say you'll send on when tickets in hand.
Its expected.

I went to a Terrorvision gig in, ah, Bolton I think, not so long back. Had a spare ticket as one of our party couldn't make it. Chanced my arm for a refund at the box office (who were still selling tickets) and got told no. So I sold it outside the venue for face value to a passing punter.
Went to go in and got taken to one side by a bouncer who was all for not letting me in because he'd just seen me selling the ticket outside. I put on my best "I'm very sorry and I didn't know any better and I'll never do it again" and he relented, but I think perhaps it was me being utterly stunned that it'd be a problem which swung it.
Scarlet mist?
Agree, I've used Scarletmist.com a few times and had no problems.
@ richpenny
I think "scarlet mist"' was pretty much the state of mind that lead to them being bought in the first place!
