I thought this had been made illegal, you know, where an agency or person bought tickets then sold them at vastly inflated prices?
I decided to book 2 tickets to see Andre Rieu at the MEN Manchester, 14 December 2012 (yep, that's right, 2012). Wife and I went to see him ons his Johann Strauss orchestra in April this year so, when another UK tour was announced, decided to go again.
Tickets went on sale 14 October so, I missed the boat. But, it appears lots of ticket agencies are offerring tickets for the show at more than twice the original price ie £98 ticket selling for £200!
So, I've bought 2 tickets for the Newcastle Metro Arena for 15 December. Decided we'll sample the toon's fine hospitality and do some chrissie shop the next day!
