Oasis Reunion. Its finally happening😱

You're right, I phrased it really poorly. I was trying to say that its quick to stop anything it thinks is a bot.

But of course the false positives seemed way too frequent and it happened to me too at numerous points.

There's another aspect to this overlooked and it also relates to the annual Glastonbury ticket scrum. Purchasers/bots with superior internet speeds and devices are always going to have priority over those less fortunate.

If punters want this system to change there has to be a mass consumer strike against it whenever these ticket scrums for far off dates arise. Don't participate. Let Noel play to a full stadium of the Real Housewives of Cheshire types and Ernst and Young accountants and see how he likes it.

I know it has been asked a few times already but did anyone get or know anyone who got the tickets priced at €86.50?

True but maybe Demand might not be as high

Its odd given this is a ££ tour and more dates = more £

Maybe some 'pop artist' has Croke Park booked

I think you imagined people thinking that…

Sorry no, look up Noel’s interviews - constantly goes on about being the band of the people, working class hero who never forgets his roots - all that bluster that the fans believe in.

Well now the bubble has burst.

Not €86.50, but i did get them for €92.50 plus service charge so €104.05. I entered the ballot and got a code for the presale on Friday. I’m the only person I know in my groups here and in the UK that got a code.

I never said I'd pay stupid money.

I said I would still try for tickets, however if I ended up being offered the 'in demand' tickets I absolutely would not get them. I am happy to pay the standard price, I am not paying double or triple the price someone else paid a few minutes earlier for the same ticket.

But I'm also not deciding I'm done with the band because they've crushed some dream that they're 'a band of the people'.

there is no venues/stadiums to play. A lot will be in use for football and then it’s too cold.
they aren’t going to play arena shows. It’s stadiums or nothing

That's not true though. There were plenty of face value tickets sold in the general sale.

ticketmaster representatives aren’t involved in ticket pricing. They simply run the process for promoter/artist upon the set rates.
Oasis agent has discussion with MCD, oasis agent sets out the guaranteed fee they want, €5m for example. MCD then draft up a budget with contingencies build in and then present show budget and ticket price possibilities ranges that a) cover costs b) generate different levels of profit. Oasis agent very likely gave indicative ticket prices to mcd to work from I.E we are charging £150 for standing in UK so ireland price needs to be close to that.
the number of vip, dynamic tickets etc out of the venue capacity are decided by agent.
with a full breakdown for each ticket category. Agent then signs off on it and mcd submit this info to ticketmaster to upload to their database.
MCD will get an agreed % of revenue/profits and ticketmaster get service fees based on tickets. After costs are done then oasis get the remainder

Don't get me wrong, I think dynamic pricing is totally wrong, and the price should be the price and that's it.

My point was I knew what the approximate standard price should be, and that is what I was willing to pay. I was never going to pay 'in demand' prices.
