Just in case anyone is like me and you have left it almost to the deadline to pay the balance the official site is now saying that they have almost sold all the campervan tickets.
So if you are planning on taking a campervan get your finger pulled out, £175 per ticket.

Am in a quandry now....
I will be going in a camper because 1) I really can't manage sleeping in a tent and 2) It's way cooler, especially if it's rainy.
Problem is, the disabled camping field people don't let you know of you can pitch there until way closer to the fest.
Last year was fine, used their field and everything was cool.
But what if...
Do I get a camper ticket anyway and sell it afterwards if I don't need it? It would mean that I was one of those predatory ticket bastards trying to make a quick buck from ebay, but.
Hmm

No it wouldn't ... there's nowt at all wrong with selling any genuinely spare ticket via ethical means and at face value plus totally legit expenses. There's almost always peeps on here looking for them nearer to the festi for one reason or another not to mention that there's always ScarletMist if they will allow you to use it for Glasto stuff of course.  Don't see any problem at all, get a ticket just in case you need it and find it a good home by responsible means if not   I hate scumbag touts with a vengeance but you don't HAVE to be a tout just because you have a genuinely spare ticket to find a home for.  Some peeps simply choose to be a tout by using the likes of eBay and quite intentionally trying to get as much do$h as possible

Whilst reselling tix is almost always technically a breach of the relevant Ts&Cs, it's those buying with absolutely no intention of ever using them and/or trying to sell at a huge profit that are the b@rstewards, not peeps with genuine spare tix to sell at face value etc.

Other thought: are CV tickets refundable up until some time in May (or thereabouts) like general admission tickets are ?

Buy the campervan ticket for £75, then if you don't need it just put it on Ebay buy it now for £75 plus whatever postage, then you wont be making anything and your being fair, easy, job done
