ticket exchange question

[LEDZEP66]

I think you should just try in the resale, if you don't get one bad luck.

If you do try it though imagine the feeling of getting in. We're excited because we have a ticket and just the general build up. Imagine coming over in a plane and not knowing to the last minute if your in or out, walking through the gates you would have a Massive smile.

but you'll always get a jobsworth at every gate

I definitely won't be wearing my Mussolini costume on the way in that's for sure

I've now read the further posts and realise I do indeed have the morals of a tom cat. Interesting. *Goes off to commit master crime*

Sorry, but rules are rules....maybe... if you can't go you don't get to choose who gets to go instead of you. At this point we have all only paid a deposit. Your friend who can't go has only lost £10.

That's how I got a ticket this year having been unsuccsesfull since 2008,I made my flat mate who works as a web designer get up on the sunday morning,we both went to his work to use the better internet connection and he saw the back door on Twitter and got me my ticket the poor fella doesn't even go to festivals,that's how desperate I was

Not trying to be antogonistic even though it'll probably look like I am, but do you obey every rule there is?

Peoples view of what's right and wrong can get jaded when they believe a cause to be a 'just cause'. We all know that using someone else's ticket is undermining the anti-tout system and that it prevents someone else from obtaining that ticket through legitimate means, but would most of us consider doing it if we were really desperate to get in? Probably. We have to admit it's still wrong though.

Stayed in the campervan fields in 2010 so had to show our tickets every time we entered the site proper (twice a day at most). My husband was asked for extra ID several times - his ticket was completely legit - luckily he had his drivers' license with him. We reckon he was stopped so often because he was clean shaven in his photo and had grown a beard by the time of the festival. Add that to sunglasses and hat because of the glorious weather and security staff became concerned. At least half the times he was asked for extra ID it was as we were leaving the site to go back to the van.

After that I personally wouldn't take the chance of going in on someone elses ticket (identical twins notwithstanding!)

By that do you mean someone who is doing what they are supposed to be doing

Checking the person stood in front of them is the same person who's picture is on the ticket
