extortionate prices
 
I'm lucky enough to have got gold circle tickets for Manchester in the pre sale. I have just been looking on ebay and can't believe how much they ate selling them for especially the diamond circle. Has everyone who's going paid the face value price or paid over the odds?

If you pay over the odds you're an idiot. I actually think that even if you buy them for face value you're an idiot nowadays. No need for that with Bon Jovi, you can easily get them for a lot less 1 week before the show.

They were giving the expensive tickets away at the 02 to people in the nose bleed section.
I cant understand how anyone would bid on a ticket which isnt even printed yet even though the shows arent sold out. I,m not even going to get a ticket before Xmas,but if it sells out then so be it. To me the face value is extortionate enough. When I think back to the first time I saw Bon Jovi live I paid less than a tenner!

It's the most I've paid for a ticket but the nearest I will be.

Not much more expensive than the GA tickets then, I might be tempted to try out for these (if not sold out). Still going to wait though. If tickets dont sell too well they tend to put out more GC tickets closer to the date by making the Circle bigger iirc.

I originally tried to go for Diamond Circle tickets but didn't stand a chance.
