True, but they specifically say hey don't sell themselves, and they're often getting allocations direct from promoters.

I bought tickets through them for the Norwich game, worked out at £26 for two, didn't have any problems with them.

I tried to sell my ST seat for the Man City game. Sale price 47 quid, i'd have got 26.

The thing is, unless the punter is really stupid, they must know that the chances of buting a ticket from a genuine cant go is most unlikely.

That's not the point. The promoters are releasing tickets to them for massive mark ups.

It's not about what the punter thinks, it is about what these agencies say they do, which doesn't tally with the actual truth.

It's on 4+1 at the mo. Very interesting stuff.

They're just online ticket touts. No different to someone doing it on the street. If people are prepared to pay, then there's a market.

The government could and should just make it illegal to sell tickets over their face value.

Its been going on for years .  Nothing new . they have always got the best seats , I've seen them go on sale on these sites before they are suppose to go on public sale.

I have only used a tout once for a concert ticket (and only paid £5 above face value). It would have to be something amazing for me to pay over the odds for tickets.

Used this service a lot this season.

Someone in A1 in the Trinity sells their ticket for pretty much every home game for 20 quid so been buying that!

I bought 27 tickets for The Prodigy at NIA from See Tickets , then went and bought another 2 and got banned .   they should sort these companies out and not worry about me .

I have used them three times this season. Good seats at a decent price for all three games.
