Would you?
My daughter's favourite band is playing in Edinburgh tomorrow, it's well sold out and after weeks of trying to get tickets I posted an ad on gum tree this morning hoping someone locally would sell and I could pick up today... I have a guy who will sell me his... Only they are 'fast tickets' you basically print them out from e mail yourself and the venue simply scans the bar code.
Now the venue advise against buying resold fast tickets... They can be printed twice and second scan won't get in for obvious reasons, the guy says its above board they don't really care about names on tickets they just scan and on you go...
Would you risk it for the chance? Or not?
It's also essentially for her birthday which is on Thursday!

I know exactly what you mean, the hugest part of me thinks no way... But then I think its the only potential way and not taking the chance might I kick myself forever? Arghhhhhh

I think I would be pretty wary of that Kaz tbh, you have no idea how many times he might have 'sold' these tickets on.

Let your little un know your taking a risk that might not work so she's prepared.

See that's the thing jack she's more than up for the fact that better to try and take a risk that she's aware might be a disappointment than not try at all...it's hubs and I looking at each other with wary looks!
She's 15 on Thursday and in all fairness very mature thinking wise for her age.

Funny that's what hubs said... If the guy couldn't go why weren't they sold before now, I tend to wonder if money doesn't encourage folks maybe not particularly looking forward to going anyway... No?

Woooooo hoooo, picking up a pair in Falkirk tomorrow morning, full address and cash on collection.
my wee lass is over the moon... Actually I cannot wait either
The other one requested 'pay by bank transfer ok? As I no PayPal.. I give you address and mums address once I get pay'
methinks everyone was right to be wary!

Glad you got them Kaz and I assume these are proper tickets and not the fast ones?
