HOW TO BUY, SELL, BARTER OR GIFT A TICKET

There are some unscrupulous folks who try to profit off of personal ticket sales, fake or legit. This goes against the ethos of our community. Below are some tips to keep these transactions safe and ensure no hassles at the gate.

1-GOUGING IS EVIL
If you want to sell your ticket we ask that you please do not sell it for more than you paid for it. Tickets are priced in the tiered structure to ensure that everyone can attend the event. If you can't go, selling that $200 ticket for $200 when tickets cost $225 is helping someone attend who might not be able to otherwise. Please do not buy a ticket for higher than the face value printed on it.

2-GET INFORMED
It is important that we at BMHQ know who is going to Burning Man. So if you are buying or selling a ticket, please let us know so we can make sure to get you added to the mailing list so you receive your Survival Guide and other important information about Burning Man 2005. Send us an email to: partiserv *at* burningman *dot* com
and we will get you added to the mailing list.

3- DON'T BUY A FAKE
If you are buying a ticket and want to check to make sure it is legit - send us an email with the ticket number and the email address or name of the person selling it: partiserv *at* burningman *dot* com .

I think a good point to add to this post is that when you sell your ticket please have the courtesy to come back and notify those who are looking.

Sadly I cannot attend this year's burn. My health is not so good, and have been advised not to make the trip (from England). A few weeks ago I was suddenly convinced that I needed to go, and bought a ticket. But it not to be this year.

I am selling my ticket (it is held at Will Call). I paid $250 for it. I wanted to see if I could use it next year, but they say it does not work that way.

I am hoping someone will buy my ticket (hopefully for at least $200) or possibly take my ticket in exchange for a ticket next year.

Have a great burn. xxx

I have 2 tickets to sell for this year's burn, as I can't go :evil: . I bought them for $250 each. I want to sell the pair, and will sell for $150 each.

Just happened to see your post here . . . I would LOVE to be their new home! I have been searching high and low for two "low budget" tickets so my boyfriend and I can join our Village on the playa this year! We got excited building village structures . .. now we HAVE to be there.

Sorry you can't make it this year . . . yes, EVIL! I am in SF area, but would pay shipping costs, etc. I could use paypal or send you cashier's check or money order! WHATEVER works! Pleeezzzeee let me know if they are still available!

Thanks!

I've had a Family emergency and have to sell my BM ticket :( You only have until Wed 9/01/05 at 2 PM to take advantage of this ticket (I have to catch a flight after that). I paid $250 for it plus the $13.75 service charge. Cash only, please.

Oh! And, will you say a prayer for my family at the Temple... please.
