I know a few people are still looking for camping tickets for this year,

Just came across a cheap ticket for Houx on Ebay whilst trawling for t-shirts

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&am...

Has less than 24 hours to go.....Sure someone from here could snap it up at a bargain!

We are all staying in a house this year .... How posh rolleyes

It might be cheap now but by the time it closes it couyld well be several times the price from an agent, you tend to get cheap tickets in early June but any for sale now will fetch well over the odds

True, but i'm from the Ebay school of 'bid at a price you are willing to pay and then walk away.....'

....and get outbid by someone else.

There's a much better way of doing that sort of thing - use bidnapper or auctionsniper - set it at the maximum you're willing to bid, and let it bid for you 3 seconds before the auction ends. Leaves nobody else any time to get in another bid, and you don't get carried away bidding more than you intended to. Sorted.

Much better to just buy direct from the ACO, Tourist office or an agent.

Saves all the hassle and you pay the going rate

That is well below the sort of prices seen last year and makes the buy it now prices of £210 look a little optimistic

I was keeping an eye on that at £10. Rocketed in price about the same time as this post appeared!
