Wow. That didn’t take long. Rather glad I got my ticket yesterday, but now that it is sold out (or at least appears to be), I will only be really happy when I have those tickets in my grubby little hands. (That confirmation email is really not enough to satisfy my paranoia that something might have gone wrong…)
Can’t wait though.

By the sounds of it, from reading the forums on the official website, a lot of people have been buying multiple tickets in order to sell their leftovers on ebay and make a tidy profit. [After reports last year of people reselling tickets for several hundreds of pounds just before the event]. There are a load of tickets on offer on ebay, most of which are at double their face value already.

Personally, adopting the moral high ground for a second, I think this is a rather sad indictment of the greed-based society we live in, not to mention totally contrary to the spirit of the festival. I suppose I can only hope that so many extra tickets are floating around that supply actually outstrips demand and drives prices back down closer to face value.
