Gemmill 46027 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Read the patter from AEG this morning about how the tickets will become collector's items, which were designed and inspired by Michael Jackson. But guess what? You only get to keep this piece of art by not asking for a refund. Wonder if he thinks he's fooling ANYONE with that patter. Mind it'll tug at the heartstrings of the deluded and there will be a few that forego the refund to keep their hands on their ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 46027 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Your average adult Michael Jackson fan is borderline retarded. Most will take the refund obviously but sone will hold on to their work of art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14013 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I thought he was doing 50 gigs anyway? So if the O2 is 20'000 capacity that's 1 Million tickets. Hardly rare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Your average adult Michael Jackson fan is borderline retarded. Should ask them if they want the ticket or to get their first shag. They'll still probably opt for the former though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly rare Aye, I think I read they'd sold about 750k already. Priceless collectors items. As a show of good will people should be allowed to keep them for a nominal fee.

Tom 14013 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Yeah they should be allowed to keep the tickets, probably for the ''processing fee'' e.g the amount it took to manufacture the tickets and deliver them, probably about £2-3 pound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it would only be 200,000 max, but whether they'd be worth more than the £75 paid in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hundreds of fans queued at the venue as tickets went on sale to the public and over a quarter of a million people queued online. Around 750,000 fans have bought tickets to see the veteran pop star. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/8060282.stm Edited June 30, 2009 by alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the less take it up the more potential value they will have. People are still reckoning companies could go under because of it though.
