    Okay, I know this thread is probably born out of pure frustration, but I had an idea -- you know there are going to be people out there -- or in here, for that matter, who are going to be selling on their tickets to the premiere at exhaubanant prices...I demand these people be shown up for what they are!

    If they email you, or PM you with offers over £50.00, then I demand that they be named and shamed -- List the criminals here! :::

    I've just 'asked the seller a question', basically asking why he is selling them. If he doesn't come up with a decent answer, I'll be well pissed.

    I asked him why he has said in the description that after watching the first 5 films you get to go over to the Odeon for the premier when you dont.

    does this auction look genuine? He does not mention the name "Galactic Passport" and the seller is located in Hong Kong yet the item is in Essex

    You can be pissed, but there's nothing wrong with what he's doing.

    Infairness we'd probably all do the same (providing we knew everyone here had a ticket already) - besides, you don't owe anyone here anything.

    the fact he is located in hong kong seems suspect to me.

    Taking this into account, he would have had to have booked by phone or the internet, both of which we know, were virtually impossible. He would have had to be up at a inconvenient time (taking time difference into account) - this all indicates a "good level" of premeditation and knowledge about the tickets. This is however, not displayed in his product description which is just partly pasted from somewhere and actually missing the key point "galactic passport". I would bet everything to state this is fake.

    :( i wish they had been real, but it seems not

    TheDarthVader officially starts the purge of the Tout Order. Remember most touts will go unseen, selling by cash deals and through special touting networks, use your senses when hunting them down and slaughtering their kind.
