So, Female, and a 10c member.....

Ziggy what were you doing on the night in question???

Mind if we check your bank statements.....

pjfan31

I'm a ebay illiterate.

She has starting bid $119 &
'buy it now $120'

So wouldn't the bidding war end after $1 cause someone would just buy it?

My 10c number is 271xxx. There's no way I would have got 4th or 5th row in Melb or Syd in 2006.

Off....the....hook!

Depends if somebody is stingy enough that they want to save $1. As soon as they put in a bid then the option to "Buy It Now" disappears

ah, so let me get this straight. If someone says 'yeh I will bid $119' instead of buy for $120 then 'buy it now' disappears and a war can begin?

I was 6th row Melbourne 1 and 4th row in sydney in 2006, so am pretty sure I know who it is.... which did result in me throwing up when I saw the 'benefits' comment....

Ooooh! You're going to come in handy. Nice and close to the culprit on both nights.

On the nights of Melb 1 and Syd 1, did you see any female 10clubbers with tennis shoes on? Carrying a tennis racket? Possibly flashing wads of cash from selling tickets above face value? Depending on how big of a tennis fan she really is, she could have looked a little like this --- or absolutely nothing like it:

Don't you think this is maybe a little ridiculous?

I don't have a problem with how much they are, unless people have bid on them and they have gone up. What I see the problem being is that 10 club tix are on eBay, which I thought was one of the big not to dos. And it would appear this person has done it before, at above face. There are plenty of people here looking for and trading spares. I don't see why this person has gone to eBay, when it is against 10 club rules.

I do agree with this. I just think the whole "bidding war" issue is overblown though.

The only problem with no resale (even though it's the rules) is that the person might not even use the forums, might not know people are keen to pick up spares. Selling for face value is a pretty low-level 10C crime, I'd have thought.

The fact they have sold over face before doesn't do them any favours, but maybe they've changed their ways?

It is my understanding this person is well aware of the forums and is a forum user, they have well over 1000 facebook friends which I think the majority of which is pearl jam fans. So I think they had a few options before going to eBay.

I can understand a week or two out from the date of the show turning to eBay to flick a spare at face that you may not have been able to get rid of. But it's still a couple months out, it's not last resort time yet.
