Arctic Monkeys tickets are already being re-sold for £600 each - up to 11 times their face value - despite still being on sale at some venues. General release tickets went up for sale for between £52 and £99 this morning.
At its height, 80,000 were in the virtual queue for tickets for the Manchester gig, and 67,000 in the same line up for tickets to the Sheffield show. Ticketmaster tweeted desperate queueing fans to encourage them to "be patient and don’t refresh or you’ll lose your place."
Fans scrambled but many were left disappointed. People rushed to Twitter to jump on any spare tickets being re-sold. On Twitter, one user said: "Selling standing Arctic Monkeys Tickets for Swansea, £300 each."
