The *New* Resale Spreadsheet

[Ayrshire Chris]

Just had a look at the official website ticket info. Seems they have extended the date for a refund from September to January next year. It’s under the updated ticket info section,  With resale in April,   anyone else seen that or am I just late in noticing it?

Looks like it but I haven’t seen any mention of this elsewhere or any cancelling of the October sale

Hello all, 

Ten months ago (back in the optimistically, yet dark, days of post-sale October 2019 ) a crack resale team was assembled and sent to the internet to gain access to a festival they didn't get tickets for. These group of renegades promptly hounded the efestival servers as they escaped from the doldrums to the positivity of @Big durbs in the Resale Club. Today, still wanting tickets, they survive as efest posters. If you have no tickets, and no one else can help, and you know how to use your F5 finger... maybe you can use... the Resale Spreadsheet.

*heroic music - dur dur duuurrr...*

I have just added the thirteen or so emails I had over the last few weeks, so currently the spreadsheet exists for any potential sale... let's remain positive. 

I will tag everyone on the spreadsheet, can you confirm that you still want to be on it and I will edit it before I republish it next week on here to be viewed to make sure we have groups and maximum chances... whenever that resale takes place! I have included ones who had success as I don't know if your places have carried over?

Resalers assemble...

Sorry on the delay, definitely still want to be involved! Thanks for keeping this running

All mention of an October sale seems to have disappeared. It not even in the original cancellation statement anymore.

Was thinking about this the other day.

While this isnt going to be popular with those without tickets would it not be sensible to hold off any resale? If it's going to go ahead (fingers, toes and bumhair crossed) its likely to be at a reduced capacity due to the pandemic.

This would probably mean less everything, traders staff etc but of course, festival goers surely its easier to sell more tickets closer to the time than have to make some sort of decision to lock some people out who have already secured a ticket...

I think they'll hold off and see how that land lies in Q2 next year...

I don't have a ticket and I think it's sensible to wait until they have a bit more certainty. Also I think the less time people have to prepare the less people who will try in the resale so really it's not bad all round.

Makes sense to wait until April when they’ll know for definite it’s going ahead.

The other factor of course might be that they haven’t had enough deposits returned to make a sale worthwhile.

I don't see what reducing capacity would achieve - it's still going to be rammed in some areas whether it's full capacity or not. Plus the fact that there won't be a resale in October, but will in April (subject to it going ahead) suggests most ticket holders are hanging on to them anyway.

Oh I'm with you on this buddy. 

But where is the sense with anything at the moment, like you cant go to friends house but you can go to the pub and work.

It will make them look like they're being sensible (remember Cheltenham). Thus distancing them from any blame, its what they do.

"Well we reduced the capacity and they didn't follow the rules so its not our fault"

I can't see any large events happening unless the vaccine has been rolled out, and once that has happened then there'll be no need to reduce numbers.

We will all be ready in April.

Isnt this spreadsheet idea not really fair on the whole idea of people buying tickets? Almost like trying to beat the system?

It’s an extended version of getting friends to help which I’m pretty sure everyone does these days 

[Diamond Geezer]

I get that, and i have always had help from mates getting into Glastonbury- normally ones who work there who come out with a wristband and nicked pass out, but surely the buying tickets thing should just be left to chance so that everyone gets a fair crack at the whip.

I had an Oxfam place too, so I feel your pain.

The idea behind the spreadsheet is that once your group has got tickets, you keep going and try to get tickets for another group on the list. So your chances are higher because you'll have extra people trying for you (once they've secured their own tickets).

Oh sweet, sounds like a no brainer. It's gonna be crazy hard just with the April one though now

[astrowerks]

it was me with the hard luck story on the oxfam ticket when payment wouldn't go through 

 

so i'd like to be involved in this please if possible!  

 

thanks

Sorry for late reply! Have been on hols!
 

Definately still in!!

Had taken a bit of a break from here. Busy with work and all that plus feeling negative about chances and coming on here, though cool, does make you think quite a lot about what you'll be (might be!!) missing!
