Club Arnage

Is there any way that we can prevent tickets sold on this site for face value, being resold again on ebay for huge mark ups?

Its amazing just how many people seem to pop up with no other post to there name than trying to bag a couple of Masion Blanche or Houx passes.

The same thing happens every year Nordic.  As you say, people with a single figure post count suddenly appear, pleading for camping and grandstand tickets.

Unless those that sell them restrict their spares to 'known' CA'ers, this will continue.

I've sold my spare HA and grandstand tickets early (Dec / Jan) to regulars.

Either sell to regulars (as I have also done this year), or if a non-regular, tell them they can collect the ticket at LM, and you only give it to the guy you sold it to.

I agree to an extent, personally, I always hang out on Pistonheads, and this is the first time I have been on here.
usually my Tickets are secured through the TVRCC, but this year I couldnt commit until last minute. I would have a big problem making all the arrangments to get to Le Mans, only to be messed about getting access to the camp site. I would want my camping sorted before I left Blighty!

I dont mind covering people's postage plus maybe a beer as way of thanks, but refuse to pay markup on tickets

 

Ahh, Gnnn and boll.. ooohhh..****
Not for the first time I've spent a while piecing together a cunning argument of faultless logic (well that's my story anyway) only to have it vapourise when I press the 'post' button.
Anyway, to cut a long hairy shirt, or something (I might as well continue to talk tripe, this'll probably disappear as well..) I first have to say "Welcome Mr Vaughan", but then, sadly I have to follow it rather promptly with "B*llocks!".
I'm not one for ranting, though I did a little on:

And I've got to say, it's a free world mate, surely you're not saying that rather than pay a few extra bob you'd prefer to stay at home in your favourite slippers and armchair and not be with your mates at LM? Are those radios you're selling at cost?

There are also people with virtually no posts selling tickets here at cost price - should we do something about them too?

You beat me to the post, Fran.
Let's remember that we all had to make our first post once. I've made a lot of friends through meeting on message boards like this one.
 ;)

I just checked back to what appears to be my very first post in June 2003 ...I was buying a HA ticket from a bloke called Kevin! 

It seems like my second post was February 2005 - trying to buy a camping ticket from 24hourman (who had the same problem of having 3 MB and wanting 3 Tetre Rouge as he has this year!!) 

(I think some of my earlier posts may be missing cos i am sure i bought a ticket from Dark Warrior in 2002 and he wasnt my first!! - but I may have had a different name in the early years cos I was pretending not to be a girl  :-[ !)

So I would definately be counted as a non posting ticket buyer!!!

But look what has happened since 2005 ..........I am a goddess!  ;D

I can't argue against that Fran  :-*

Just noticed that Fran. You ought to get Smokie to change it to Goddess, or should we all be called God like persons?

The software can't distinguish between the sexes. However I have changed the designation so that one fits all  :)

As long as it is only the software that can't :o

bit late here but whats happened to yaBB God?

Not sure about the change Smokie  :-\

It makes us all look a bit AC/DC!!! As the blokes outnumber women  by 14:1 I really dont mind being a god  - after all actresses are now called actors, and stewardesses are flight attendants!! ;D

Just use this as an Avatar Fran  ;)

I might have a go Steve, but dont blame me if i crash the whole forum!  :-\

On second thoughts maybe I will try a bit later... but not after the pub tonight....

wtf does yaBB mean anyway? Just thought I'd give it something more meaningful (seeing as I can!).

I've removed the goddess bit as I agree with Fran...

wtf does yaBB mean anyway? J

You Always Bring Beer would be my best guess ;)

I'm going to avoid guessing the correct answer for fear of being earmarked as a geek if I get it right!! ::)

you could equally ask what value Club Arnage God is.  How about ?

I actually believe it's Yet Another Bulletin Board
