I see they are trying to justify the price with donating to charity but 20% is only a £100. They are still making £400 on tickets which cost them £16. Now thats a nice mark up!

its all about supply and demand if someone is silly enough to buy the tickets at that price then he is fulfilling that demand who cares? the charity makes more money the seller makes some money and the buyer get what they want

profiteering off someones death is pretty scum behaviour IMO.

The only way i would be ok with that auction is if EVERYTHING above the £4 per ticket cost (plus ebay fees) goes to charity.

At least then good is coming out of it rather than greed.

Donating only 20% to charity is a complete joke.

He is clearing in it just to make money.

Also as its listed for charity on ebay, what does this mean for likes of final valuation fee's and paypal fee's? Do ebay waive these for charity auctions?

Paul Walker Tribute Day? What you gonna do - have an outside screening of all the F&F films (or at least the ones he was in)? Who the fuck would pay for that? They were wank!

Loads of the little chavs from town are going in their vauxpoo's and jap crap. A couple of them tried getting me to go in the saff for a few runs up the strip lol I told them it'll be a waste of £14 as the track will no doubt be wet and no cars will be able to run some of them have already seen the error of their ways and sold their tickets (for similar extortionate prices) as now they realise its going to be a giant pile of 'modded' shite there and no doubt none of the cars will be anything like the cars from any of the films, just loads of idiots in civics with crap hanging off the back off them

You will find that the people bidding up the tickets are in fact the organizers as there are going to be people trying to make money as its a huge sold out event! In order to stop this they are doing everything in their power to stop them selling.

Im not interested either but that's the reasoning behind the high bidding.

Edit to say after looking at the add above it seems this particular corn hole has seen what they are going for and believes he can make a buck so has started them off at a silly price! He is dreaming!! People moan about paying £30 to go to autosport so who in their right mind would pay over that to go to see shit cars outdoors in January!!
