Cancelled tickets

[verrymerry]

I thought seeing as a lot of people will be banking on others not paying the balance on tickets to get one, I'd start a poll to get an idea from the people on eFests how many we might expect on the resale. I for example paid for 3 x deposits but am only paying for 2 now so thats 1 back in the pot

I know a couple that are going travelling rather than Glasto now so thats 2 back in.

Couldn't vote.

Not planning to return any tickets, so there's no option for me

re gretably paid for 14 deposits only 9 oing so far

[JodiB]

We need a zero adding to get a better picture.

[StoneCircle]

No you dont.

[jameshunt]

No you dont.

[grumpyhack]

You stand to get much better information if the zero option is included. That way you could get some idea of what percentage of tickets booked are likely to get cancelled. This won't give you any idea of the tens of thousands of orders that won't be cancelling any of them - like our order.

[Toilet Duck]

Yep, it's practically meaningless without a zero option. I placed 9 deposits, all will be used. Everybody I know who placed a deposit has paid the balance.

[tejhog]

as others have said, pointless without the zero option many of us would choose

[JodiB]

Without the zero option you find out how many tickets are going back into the pot from the efests forums.

what you need now is to know how many tickets efesters have bought, not just a zero option.

i.e. 1000 bought, 10 returned would equal 1% return rate.

just saying I never returned any tickets tells us nothing, we dont know how many you had. Like I said we need sales figure and returns figure to be able to tell anything.

I take a different view many may have bought ticket hoping for a mega set of headliners being the 40th but lineups are all in the eye of the ticket holder. With the tickets selling so quickly some many have bought on the off chance. Finances ae also a lot tighter as we (hopefully) are on the way out of recesion not going in. I say 3% returns

[godders1966]

pointless poll without the zero option

[glasto_mongrel_2008]

The only thing that would make me cancel would be my untimely death and even then I think I'd still go in some form or other . . . . . . probably as a vodka infusion to be shared around the camp, Moscow Mongrel Mule anyone?

[psychology]

Only if every single efester who is going to cancel, or who has cancelled, takes part in the poll. With the zero option you could make fairly accurate statistical predictions without needing the whole of the efesters population to take part.

[verrymerry]

Statistics clearly NOT my strong point! I've added zero (but it's the last option) so this should sort that out.. Massive apologise for retardation

[YouWhat]

I will have to cancel my three tickets,now that two have changed ther mind about going now. While i'm gutted and really very angry with the two who pulled out, my other half is over the moon as she is going this weekend to book us a two week holiday instead. I have voted and will be asking for a refund tomorrow,or may leave it till Monday when the phone lines are a little less busy at See Tickets

The deed is done,have cancelled my three tickets....bit gutted about it. I know next year though not to trust so called mates,who pulled out. At least i will get all my ticket money back as there paying any deductions. I know you will all say why did you not come on your own,done that in the past and its not for me. So my other half has booked us a two week holiday in Cyprus,she can't stop smiling now. I am hoping though to get tickets now for Paul McCartney in Cardiff as i can squeeze that in just before we go away,and at least she will come to that. Enjoy your Glastonbury....I hope to be back next year.
