One seller, Mr Boghog, decided to purchase 5 pairs of tickets and just to sell them on and will probably get double the price he paid

I keep thinking-why didn't I buy 4 instead of 2? Maybe because I was so shocked that I actually got in with my slow internet connection and they had tickets left!.

Thats the main reason I'm NOT going.

I know Gilmour has nothing to do with E-Bay, but the man is off his nut.

$154.00 for floor seats at Radio City......give me a break!

Why so much?

Radio City is a medium size venue and I don't think Gilmour is travelling around with a "Floyd" type stage show......so what gives?

I saw Roger for $50 bucks and had amazing seating right near the sound engineer.

Why isn't Dave able to keep his ticket prices reasonable?

The CHEAP seats for Dave were $65.00 bucks, but who the hell wants to sit in the rafters. I just can't see spending that type of money on a show, even if I do idolize the guy.

Hope it's all worth it.......

Think e-bay is bad..have a look at getmetickets.net this clown is taking the piss...top price tickets ?777

This was the same guy who last year was in the Scottish papers regarding tickets for T in the park festival. Hundreds of people had bought tickets from this wanker only to find out the tickets never existed.

Seemingly he has been charged a few times by the police over these matters but still continues to rip people off aand get away with it.....the bastard needs his legs broken

I bet some of his victims would like more than his legs broken... how bout removing his jewels

That said, this is the reason I don't go to shows anymore. Well, that and I amazingly havent destroyed my hearing yet!

I'm sure they'll be a nice DVD by the fall.

I wonder if artists as big as gilmour look out into the crowd and know that basically the first 20 rows, or so, of the audience payed astronomical fees to see them, illegitimately, at that. Thinking to themselves that they made probably millions for the scalpers in one show alone. Ride the Gravy Train.

supply and demand, plus the old buggers are too lazy to play more shows!

People buy exta tickets, taking good seats away from the fans, then sell them online to same fans who lost those seats.
