Where can I sell these Harry Styles tickets? Are there other sites/groups?

Looking for advice. I have 3 tickets for concert we can not now go to in Coventry due to school kindly deciding in the last fortnight to put exam week bang across the day of this concert. I have tried a site called twickets which someone suggested but no tickets have sold in last week and attempted to list on the site stub hub but they add such extortionate buyers fees that the price of the ticket has gone up by 40% (!) from the price I said I would accept for anyone to buy them which is ridiculous.

I don't know where else I can try and drum up some interest. Does anyone know other forums to sell tickets on? I am only looking for face value or close but I just don't know where to put them and it will be such a shame not for the tickets not to get used.

Anyone used other sites? Thanks

Have you tried Twickets? I’ve found the fees just a few pounds.

another mn found the fees high though.

worth a look though.

Ticketswap is good.

Or Viagogo or facebook marketplace or ebay?

Out of interest , how much are you selling them for?

She said she already tried this site.

What about trying Facebook?

VegetablesFightingToReclaimTheAubergieneEmoji I have tried Twickets but no tickets seem to have sold from the site for Harry in the last week - the selling fees for the site are very reasonable but you have to be able to sell your tickets first 😁

First port of call would be Facebook

I've sold tickets on viagogo - really straightforward and my obscure tickets sold. So I'm presuming Harry Styles will fly out

Thank you - ok maybe look there tomorrow but I assumed it was like stubhub who have added over 35% (not quite the 40% I thought above) to the price I was looking for!

is it this one? Dutch company I think https://www.ticketswap.uk/ had some very poor reviews so was a bit suspect - have you used them? thanks

What's the date of the concert please?

QueSyrahSyrah · 14/05/2023 22:44

Where did you buy them from? I had tickets for Harry at Wembley on the Wednesday from Ticketmaster and I managed to get tickets for Saturday that suit us much better, I sold the Wednesday ones through Ticketmaster re-sale, super easy and I got back exactly what I'd paid (I assume they add a fee for the buyer).

TastesLikeStrawberriesOnASummerEvening · 14/05/2023 22:45

Do not touch Viaggogo with a bargepole.

I'm not sure why you can't use Twickets, but that's a great site.
Other than that, Facebook like others say.

Shame, as he's amazing!!!

They add a huge fee, it was around £25 last time I looked to buy a resale.
I buy and sell a lot of tickets and only ever use Twickets.

Tickets are direct from Coventry Arena - they are coming out on pdf by email to me when all the physical tickets are released this week or whoever's email I provide to them. So cannot be listed via ticketmaster even though it is ticketmaster that are dealing with the direct ticketing by the venue which is a real pain. I have clarified this with the venue and ticketmaster.

I can still sell on other sites hence trying to use twickets but as I said above no tickets seem to have sold all week on there.

There seem to be a few popping up on our local FB site and they seem to be getting buyers.

I can use Twickets - I have been on there for a few days but no tickets have sold for this concert from anyone.

Someone suggested trying Viagogo above - have you had a bad experience with them? Thanks.

TastesLikeStrawberriesOnASummerEvening · 14/05/2023 22:56

I had 5 tickets, and sold 4, but now it's coming around I'm tempted to buy more!
It'll be my 13th time and I just can't wait.

Tonight was only the 2nd night of this leg of the tour. I would say Twickets by next week will be buzzing.
Otherwise Ticketmaster resale will her rid of them but I didn't realise the fees www so high.
