Gig Tickets on ebay

[A-Rob]

In the past I used to buy gig tickets from ebay, however in recent years I always bought tickets from the official sellers (ticketmaster, etc)

However now I want to go a gig in January and it is sold out. I searched on ebay, however all the tickets are listed with stubhub, priced way above face value. So have ebay stopped accepting gig ticket listings ?

Sorry if this topic have been already discussed, but did not managed to find the tread

Yep, Ebay and Stubhub are owned by the same company so last year gig tixs are no longer allowed to be listed on Ebay and is replaced with ads for Stubhub.

I see......

Are there suitable alternatives to stubhub, because on stubhub the tickets are more than triple the face value

Twickets on twitter is worth a try, also Gumtree. Stubhub is basically another Viagogo so yeah it's shit.

Blehh it's a shame ebay have turned into another Viagogo, as in the past you could find tickets with decent prices on it
