The Evening Standard tried to buy tickets for a string of major concerts and events from such agencies. </p> <p> . In one case we were offered a pair of tickets to see supergroup Cream featuring Clapton at the Royal Albert Hall for Pounds 1,500. At the box office a pair of the best seats in the house cost Pounds 250. </p> <p> . Another agency offered us tenth-row seats to see Queen and Paul Rodgers at Wembley Arena for Pounds 350 each. Top-price tickets cost Pounds 49.50 at the box office. </p> <p> . For U2's sold-out concerts at Twickenham stadium we were offered a pair of tickets by an agency for Pounds 900. Best-price seats were Pounds 80 each. </p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30283134-115132704580909894?l=ticketwood.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Tickets - Concert Tickets - Sports ticketshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12531292515360645136noreply@blogger.com0
