Check this out if you're still looking. Double8 tickets (a long established secondary ticketing agent) selling at BELOW face value.

Yes, you DID read that correctly .... I said BELOW face !!

[www.double8tickets.com]

Fill your boots people!!

Floor block B for 290 - not bad. Not bad at all!

Has anyone been offered pit tickets with TM ? My thoughts are that TM's allocation go's elsewhere. I think that some very lucky people got them with the facebook pre-sale on eventim.

If you look at the ticket agents there are less and less pit standing available since the last days. And they even sold for at least £ 1200 per ticket.
I still think that I am correct that some people try to sell their tickets via various ticket agents and once they sold those they are taken away on all other sites. Remember that Stubhub is also on ebay. So the tickets available are not limited but for A-1-3 and standing still above face. I strongly believe that this will remain the next two days.

I lost a pair of pit tickets that I'd agreed a price on from ebay as before I could bid the guy realised that he had already sold them on Viagogo ,so yes I think there were less available than numbers indicated.

SC UK, I've been in touch with Flairville re someone at BSKYB who wants to talk to people who have bought tix from secondaries, like you and him for example. Has he passed this info onto you ? Seems like you'd be ideal after all your frustrations endured along the way ...... ?

Hi pauly, I've spoken to him this morning He can't make it to interview.

Personally I don't want the entire nation to know what a tit I've made of myself . I wish I had Gazza's principles,but as I say to my better half............."it's the STONES"- that always goes down well

If I went on screen it would be one continuous bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep anyway !

Might right to my MP or the culture sec. about secondary selling though .

Prices are going down the drain aren't they...imagine how the people who thought they were going to sell for 3x must be feeling right now, hopefully that will drive prices down even quicker with a bit of panicking.

In case there are some floor openings for the 29th, anyone knows how the numbering works on the floor? Does it start with 1 on the left of A1 and go all the way to, say 60, on the right of A3 or are they numbered from 1 to 20 for A2 and 14 for A1/13 (numbers based on the picture below) ?

Well, via Getmein, I now have a ticket in Block 113, Row L for about £350 (saving another £100 via other ways too) so feeling pretty good despite the price
However, and the real reason for this note (and I should have known better), I thought these would be £406 tickets - but the face value was £166!

So obviously pleased on one hand, I'm there - and looking at the above photo, I should be about level with the stage and a great view...
On the other hand, paid double - but (and report back on Monday) if the view is as good as I hope, then £166 tickets were the ones to go to for value!!

Newark, Dec 15 tickets available on ticketmaster now... 750.00 seats

Good point, shattered1978 just posted in another thread that he had £150 tickets in 113, in row C apparently, which came as a suprise to me. Not sure you know the number but 412 is on the 112 side and 435 on the 114 side, so the lower the better.

Only heard of people getting a pit via the MB/VIP and FB

Unreserved standing tickets available for the 29th on Ticketmaster just now


Edit: gone already

I just checked out Viagogo/Seatwave and they have now reduced available tickets. For 25th there was 1 standing on Seatwave.
I much assume that their bail out and either go themselves or try to sell the last tickets upfront. However I just still think that there are not as many tickets available as one thought.

Ticketmaster.uk doesn't work for at least one hour :/

If "cheap" seats become available, I have to reconsider my presence at least one of the concerts!

Sorry to ask, but I always buy tickets on official website: is Double8kickets.com a really reliable website even for foreign buyers?

Really ?! You got them by selecting "best available" or "unreserved standing" ?

Double 8 tickets (unlike GETMEIN, SEATWAVE, VIAGOGO which are all INTERNET businesses) at least has physical premises you can walk into from the street. Their place of business is located at CAMBRIDGE CIRCUS in central London, at the junction of SHAFTESBURY AVENUE and CHARING CROSS ROAD.

[ If you don't believe what I'm singing, at three o'clock in the morning, babe, well I'm singing my song for you ]

Just been in to Double8 this morning.

They have dropped their prices online, and if you go in person you can haggle a bit more. Got 2 x A3 (Keith side, I think) on the 25th for a very fair price.

Double8 are at 28 Charing Cross Road, almost opposite Cambridge Circus, same side as Gaby's. First floor of an anonymous office building, press the entryphone and they'll let you in. The guy I dealt with told me he had instructions to get rid of their remaining tickets for the 25th,hence the price drop.

I still disagree with having to use re-sellers, but if you have to do so Double8 seemed pretty straight. And you leave with your tickets in your hot little hand!

Ticketmaster has floor F6, row 12 up now. Very expensive but at least it's not nosebleed. Also some uppers for $500. So apparently the pattern of releasing the crummy seats first is being followed here.

Edit: This is for Barclay's, sorry.

Seatwave has removed all unreal standing tickets.
I have checked last 2 weeks, only 4 standing tix were sold, despite over 80 tickets were available last weekend.

As a matter of interest, what do you mean by "unreal" ? I do not follow. does this mean they were in effect advertising something for sale that never existed, or that they didn't have ? Can you clarify ?

As I already stated Paulywaul, there have been less amounts of tickets available as advertised in all ticketagencies together. Come on that is a little mafia when it comes to help each other. So they advertise everything they can in different levels at different prices.
Of course there is always a bundle of tickets available on ticketmaster at the end, but those are more returns from the packages like M. Butler or Eventim as they may have a real contract.

ONE MORE SHOT to witness a part of Rolling Stones history! The final tickets for London have been released, including some extras in the Tongue pit! This is your chance to see legendary former Rolling Stones Bill Wyman and Mick Taylor Official (micktaylor.com) take to the stage with Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood for the first time ever.

Tickets available here:
[www.ticketmaster.co.uk]

The resellers had few tickets, but not as much as it was advertised last few weeks.
Some of them never said 'Fast Delivery'(=ticket is in their hand) nor 'collectfrom' (at Seatwave office).
Eventhough they have tickets in hand, some may have duplicated on Seatwave itself plus other sites. So most of them didn't exist.

From today they only sell tickets which the buyers can pick up form the office. So all tickets exist and unreal tickets can not be advertised. Now they can concentrate on other sites which they can advertise until last minutes.
