So some dirty thieving bastard has had it away with me money and I have been right royally ripped off. I bought some concert tickets from eBay for a gig at the end of next week, sent the money in March but was told the tickets would be sent out as soon as the guy received them from the promoter. So, I waited, and waited…and waited. I thought it was a bit odd that nothing had come through so I emailed the guy. He said that the venue had changed because Wembley Stadium was so behind schedule (which turned out to be true) so I waited a bit more. Then I emailed him last week and got no reply. So I logged onto eBay to find that he is "no longer a registered member". Now have I lost my money because I put my trust in a fellow human being not to do a runner with my hard earned (OK, I admit, I don't work THAT hard) cash? Or is that God's way of telling me that at 36 I shouldn't be going to see Take That in concert? Either way I am mightily pissed off.
