is it wrong to buy tickets when you have no intention on attending the event they were bought for, but know you will be able to sell them at more than face value?
what are peoples opinions on this.

In some cases I believe its ilegal to do so if the ticket says (small print on back) Not to be sold for higher than face value.
In my opinion all touts should die!!!
I would like to know how they manage to get so many tickets when I have trouble getting 2?

i can see your point but it is always going to happen. imagine you bought 2 tickets to go to a gig then couldnt go for whatever reason and told some1 you would sell thsm to them for what you paid, then some one said il give you £50 more, is it wrong to turn down the extra £ someone is willing to buy them for

Sure thats fair enough, but lets face it lots of people buy to sell on.
Have to say im lucky git, and sometimes dont have to pay in the first place. Perks of working in media, and having gone out a girl that works for a record co. Just ticks me off when I really want to see something and cant!! Reading festival 4 example.
