Iguess you and 'your friend' just happen to have those tickets right?
No way you have any intention to screw people trying to find someone crazy enough to pay 700 euro's for a ticket? Pffffffffffffff I get tired of people doing this.........

Its no different to football clubs changing their strips each season. As a parent I am getting fed up of paying for nylon tat club t'shirts at £30 each which are snagged on the rails before they are even sold- the only good thing about them is that they dry quickly in bad weather and don't need ironing! Not to mention the price of watching a game now. Who benefits? Brand Beckham etc & the Clubs laughing all the way to the bank so the touts are no different!?

hey just to be contraversial. If Andy nd his friend wanna gamble on the football tickets, then let them. They went through the hassle of buying them in the first place, and out up their money. The risk losing it to.. What's the problem with a bit of free enterprise. Nobody is force to pay 700 euros. If they do pay that then more fool them.

How about a bit of live and let live.

Of course blatantly advertising your srvices on CVO.com, well that's another subject entirely !

Think youre just a windup merchant Bob!
Not much of a football fan myself and dont think England have a chance anyhow.
Andy put Sold to replace his former heading,Sold alright.A pup I think

those mugs would have been better off pouring the money down the drain.or better still,if youve that much money to throw away,give it to a good cause like
Children in Need
and stay at home to watch game on TV.
Reckon Zidane will win match on his own.

Nothing wrong with free enterprise BUT in my opinion the national football team should be available to all (as should Wimbledon etc) and therefore a lottery/ballot/simply waiting in line system where everyone pays the same price for something that is very oversubscribed is fair. To follow the route of touting is just making the events only available to the richest (or daftest)

Equally, if I was (a)interested and (b) lucky enough to have obtained tickets, seeing that they can now be sold for 700E each would give me a very difficult dilemma since efectively it would now be costing me E700 in potentially lost income if I were to use the tickets rather than sell them.

Finally (and probably most importantly given that everyone, not just football fans wants a peaceful tournament), I presume that the tickets sold through the usual channels are to vetted recipients. The authorities will know who is sitting in each seat and in the event of trouble the video footage will be able to identify the troublemakers for future games. A touted ticket has no such security and as such I fully understand why the authorities have outlawed this practice.

Off now to watch our magnificent boys thrash the All Blacks tomorrow morning. (Strange how they have been forgotten so suddenly ......)
