    It shouldn't be business... Now it's official scalping
  4. Hearing conflicting reports about a second Dublin show....would love it bu my bank account wouldn't but let's see.....i know i kept those two codes for a reason!
  5. Is it just me or does it seem like there is no way whatsoever of stopping tickets getting sold second hand for ridiculous prices. I'm not saying this as someone bitter because I got tickets but the amount of fans left disappointed is really sad. Has anyone came up with anything? I was thinking not allowing anything over face value online and having a much stricter policy outside the venue as well would help but not completely eradicate it.
  6. Is there anyone who gonna try to get tickets for the second Amsterdam show and doesn't have a ticket for the first show?
    I would love to trade it!!!!
  7. second shows for London, Paris And Brussels added to U2.com

    There is.

    First off; make it illegal.

    The next step is to stop national companies like ticketmaster from selling tickets for inflated fees. The next is to track ticket sellers who advertise their tickets online. They'd need to to post their seat number etc. so you track the buyer of those tickets. Warn them. Three warnings and their account/ credit card will be refused for future purchases for a period of x years.

    There's always a police presence at these events anyway, so why not have 2/3 in civilian clothes trying to arrest those selling at huge mark-ups.

    This isn't drugs which you can sell on the street at any time. The scalpers are people looking for a quick job but are reliant on other income. There's only so many of these gigs with value. They'll get the message quickly enough.
