Due to numerous requests, these are the names of people or ticket selling agents, submitted by forum regulars, who are alleged to have let people down, proven untrustworthy or are questionable sources from whom to buy tickets (i.e. touts). We will add to the list as and when people submit names.

mr breadhater

this may not be right thread to make this comment but has a connection as it is about gooners disrespecting other gooners.

have seen thread where gooners offering to use their privilege as away scheme members to buy tickets for other gooners for villareal away game.

i think my friends and i will be ok as come into next category with 25 + credits but as there are 1400 away scheme members-so the box office tell me- and an initial allocation of 1550 tickets only it could be a tight call and i would have every right to feel aggrieved if i miss out due to queue jumping. i dont think this forum should be used for that purpose.

what do you think?

Rolypoly,

Although the ticket threads weren't set-up with that particular consequence in mind, I can understand and sympathise with your point regarding the fear of being queue-jumped by people with less credits than you have accumulated.

Not sure how we could get around it without withdrawing the 'service', which many on here - both buyers and sellers - have found useful and been extremely grateful for. Definately a bit of a moral dilemma. Perhaps gooner.ed would be the best person to take this up.

simple solution.

nobody can offer to buy for someone else

the main function of the service is to buy and sell unwanted tickets already in possession of seller.

There would be nothing stopping people sending a PM or an e-mail to each other offering to do the exact same thing (only this would be in private), so I'm not sure your solution would put a total stop to it.

easiest way of not being scammed is to meet in person I would assume
