libra Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Hi I know tickets are non-transferable but did I read somewhere that they could be re-sold by Massive Events if for some reason someone couldn't come? If so whats the latest I could re-sell my ticket if I don't get out of hospital or get medical permission to come. This is just a query I AM planning to still come just checking my options.

Moderators etmuse Posted January 19, 2011 Moderators Share Posted January 19, 2011 As far as I know, the only case in which ME have a 'resale' option is if the event sells out completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Showmasters Admin Too Tall Posted January 19, 2011 Showmasters Admin Share Posted January 19, 2011 The re-sell system is linked to below, but I'm afraid it only happens IF the whole show sells out.

Dankriss Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I thought that you were doing resale on Chevron 7.6 tickets? Kriss :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 You mean a re-sell if the show is not sold out? Where did you hear that? I'm not aware of a policy change for this one, and going from the posts above TooTall ans Yvie haven't heard anything either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yvie Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 There is no resell policy change for Chevron. What Kriss may be referring to was when a Gold ticket was returned to sale following someone's failure to pay. That Gold ticket was returned to stock because the credit card of the person who tried to buy it didn't go through even after a couple of days, and it was unfair to hold the ticket indefinitely while that person sorted out their finances. That wasn't a resale though, because it wasn't actually sold in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they were going to allow resale for this event...something was said that if you could not attend you could resale your ticket but it would cost you something like £5 to do it...as there had been complaints about not be able to transfer tickets...

Gatewhale Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 they say for a sold out event only but the gold tickets are sold out all ready and I am sure people still want them so why can't you resell them then ? ( I'm not gonna cause I am still coming! ) but just a question ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 The general rule is the event has to be sold out, not just a single ticket category. Unless Mark or Jason announce a change that's the rule that's followed. I can only speculate, but I guess the reason for that is because then for example standard ticket holders would "upgrade" once they have saved the money for gold, and then there'd be the problem why they can't sell the standard ticket. After all they upgraded, right? Too many logistic problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Showmasters Admin Too Tall Posted January 20, 2011 Showmasters Admin Share Posted January 20, 2011 As QS has said, the rule is no re-sales until the whole event is sold out. As per the thread I linked to AND the websites, sorry but those are the rules ME have set down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biggestfanever Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Kriss is actually correct i believe. Maybe sm misswrote what they said or meant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I'm not sure why you think something different was said? Was there a comment at Chevron 7.5 that I missed? Kris seems to have caught only part of the official resell policy, which as explained above only applies if the event is sold out. That resell rule has been in place since 2009, and it's posted that way on the 7.6 site: http://www.massiveevents.co.uk/chevron76/info.php?resell Plus TooTall, me and Yvie are not aware of any changes to that. Yvie is responsible for the online shop. If something that significantly had changed she would know. I'm genuinely curious now what I may have missed.

adriangill Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I don't recall anything be said on stage about ticket resells. I can't find anything in the Chevron 7.5/7.6 sections to contradict the links that Yvie and TooTall have posted either. Thankfully, as I am not sure I would want to contradict Yvie anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggestfanever Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I'm sure we are not imaging it:-). It is weird but im sure it was stated somewhere :s, on the forum. There would of been a admin fee if i call. Anyway this does not concern me as i won't want to miss this:p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adriangill Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I'm wondering if you are thinking about the resell admin fee of £15 that is mentioned in the link that TooTall posted. http://showmastersonline.com/forums/index....showtopic=53818 I have had a look and can't see anything about £5 anywhere. If you do find it then please point it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dankriss Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I know it was mentioned at C7.5 just after C7.6 was announced I got the impression that it was if at anytime you had to resale a ticket because you couldn't go....so I obviously was not listening correctly...LOL... Must admit it would be nice if we could resale the ticket back to Showmasters with the £15 admin charge without the event being sold out....although can see how it can be hard if a guest cancels and everyone wants their money back!...LOL Kriss :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe one part slipped through because your mind automatically went "oh it's RDA, it will sell out anyway." Must admit it would be nice if we could resale the ticket back to Showmasters with the £15 admin charge without the event being sold out....although can see how it can be hard if a guest cancels and everyone wants their money back!...LOL That's very likely the reason for the resell policy being written the way it is. I'm sure we are not imaging it:-). It is weird but im sure it was stated somewhere :s, on the forum. There would of been a admin fee if i call. Anyway this does not concern me as i won't want to miss this:p. The only policy mentioned on the forum is what we linked here. There is an admin fee involved in the "sold out resell policy", that's probably what you recall. I searched quite a while yesterday and couldn't find any other posts by SM about a different policy or about a 5 pound fee. There were posts of attendees saying they were willing to pay a 5 pound fee though when the subject "why are ticket transfers not possible" came up. Maybe that's what got mixed in there somewhere. If you find something please let us know, just to avoid this causes further confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen_Sindel Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 There's this little joke in German. Rule 1: I am always right. Rule 2: If I am not right for some reason, rule 1 comes into play by default. Doesn't sound as funny when you translate it, but I hope it's keeping the general sense.

adriangill Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I understand perfectly. More or less what Yvie has stated. They are rules that I have....been subjected to so many times from non-males that I have been forced to accept them as law. It's just easier that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
