Just been looking for a few stand-up show prices and, to be quite honest, I'm gob-smaked as to how ****ing much they are charging.... here's a few examples......

 

Rhod Gilbert = £89!!!

 

Dara O'Briain = £99!!!

 

Frankie Boyle = £180!!!

 

 

Those prices are PER PERSON! :thumbdown: :cursing:

 

Am I just totally out of touch or what? (I think the former there ;) )

Blimey! that is expensive. Although Frankie is funny, he does repeat a hell of a lot of jokes.

Frankie Boyle tickets available for me here in Glasgow for..........£20 :thumbup1:

 

In fact, I think I'll get a couple just now!

 

Check out http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk

Dara O'Briain is on there in Edinburgh for £25 as well

Now that's very interesting.....

 

Following a little more digging, look what I've found.....

 

As stated above - Rip-Off Price for Dara...

And the proper Face-Value price for exactly the same show....

Well, well, well! So how the hell can they justify that? :angry:

just rotten touts online. Their faqs state:

 

Since we are an intermediary and not a direct selling point, our prices often differ from the face value mentioned on the tickets. The extent to which the prices are higher depends on several factors. First of all, the degree of time and effort needed for us to be able to get the tickets affects the price. Prices are furthermore based on supply and demand. Very popular and therefore more difficult to get tickets will usually be more expensive than less popular tickets.

robbing cnuts. And I thought Michael McIntyre was expensive at £40 a ticket :rofl:

They're avin a larf!! No charge from me either!!

as said they are just online ticket touts buying at cost and selling on for 3/4 times there value.

OMG thats crazy :angry:
