*Face Value* Wembley Tickets For Sale Soon!

Although I'm new to this board, I've been a geniune Pearl Jam fan for 15 years. Many bands have come and gone in that time but PJ still remain the best, producing innovative album after album, never failing to impress me and reassuring my faith in music...
... I'm sure I share a similar taste in music as many of you when I say I've grown up on PJ, Soundgarden (Chris Cornell was amazing at the London Astoria the other night btw!), Nirvana, Faith No More, AIC, Metallica, Pink Floyd, RATM, Led Zeppelin, Foo fighters, RHCP, etc...
...However, one thing that has always amazed me and still remains true is that there is something very special about PJ fans. I know what it feels like to be a real PJ fan yet I have only ever seen then live 3 times and have never joined 10c. It's amazing that how you can feel the magic, through nothing but the music.
Anyway, getting to the point, I was lucky enough to buy 8 tickets to the upcoming Wembley show but I only need 2. As a genuine PJ fan, I can't bring myself to put the other 6 on eBay and make other genuine PJ fans pay over the odds for tickets which they unfortunately missed out on at general sale...
...As you can image, I could make a huge profit on the 6 tickets I have spare but feel I want to honour that special vibe that PJ fans have and give something back for the love of their music...
I have...
2 tickets in Block S11 Row P
4 tickets in Block S13 Row W
2 tickets in Block E3 Row A
... I am undecided on which 2 to take for myself, S11 or E3, as I have not been to Wembley arena in a very long time...
I will sell the other 6 at FACE VALUE (plus booking fees etc) which works out to a total £41 each per ticket.
How I decide who gets them I have not yet decided. I could just sell them to the first 3 people who want a pair but this may not be fair if other fans are not online at the time.
As there is only about 3 weeks to go, I know I need to decide soon. Any ideas on how I should choose are welcome?

Verona??? it's all surmountable
Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
Wembley? We all believe!
Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
Chicago 07? And love
What a different life
Had I not found this love with you
did you get those from Stargreen? (they told me they send out today ..will see when I get home).
as for choosing..that's really your priorities but that's how I'll get about it if no-one I already know wants the 2 I'm due to receive imminently:
- priority to home show i.e. someone living in the UK. Nothing against visitors, I've got plenty staying at my house , but it's so frustrating if you cannot get tickets to your home show. Plus if you live in the UK yourself, it makes transactions far easier.
- priority to someone with a track record here or Red Mosquito or Youkan, etc ..in brief someone with a documented interest: don't want a scalper getting their hands on my babies :mad:. That said, one of the person getting a 10c I arranged was new here..but he convinced me
Not that I'm likely to have to do that: already got a list of people wanting a look at them (I don't know where they are yet)
It will make my year if I could go to this gig!!!
Thanks,
Ollie
18/06/07 London Wembley Arena
29/06/07 Rock Werchter Festival
tickets so I'd take 1, 2, 3 easy.
Best put the word out among your closest friends first though.
I had 6 for Dublin last year and friends and family used them all.
p.s, if you live anywhere along the M4 corridor between Wales and London, I'll even give you a lift.
Sorry I haven't replied to you all as I'm a very busy person (honest!)
OK, I've checked the thread and my private messages and would like to offer the tickets to 3 of the following people...
Harrison
PJGirl01
jamieuk
DEMON CLEANER
Dave Brown
There is only a week to go (I can't wait!)... so this needs to get sorted ASAP!
I have 3 x 2 Tickets for sale so only 3 of you will be lucky! I use Paypal so there is an easy way of doing this and a slightly harder way of doing this if you want me to do it via eBay (for your added security).
I assure you I am a genuine, trustworthy PJ fan and will be at the gig myself!
INSTRUCTIONS:
(1) Please post on this thread or PM me which tickets you want (see my initial post).
(2) I will confirm with you if those tickets remain and if not will offer you a different pair.
(3) You then transfer £85 (postage, costs, etc included) into my Paypal account.
(4) As soon as the money has cleared I will post the tickets or meet you on the night to hand over in person.
Easy!
Good luck and I'll try and check my emails as often as I can!!!
P.S. If anyone wants to offer a full copy of Atlanta 1994 WITHOUT all the Vitalogy songs cut out (the album hadn't come out yet I think!)... then that would truly help your cause ;-) Lost my copy years ago :-(

Time is running out for me and I need to break even at least so I'm gonna have to put these on eBay now!
Gonna put them up at face value. Just hope some tout doesn't buy them and sells them on at a profit!
