What to do with unwanted concert tickets?

My wee sister has three tickets to see Paramore in Dublin at the o2 on Saturday the 6th of November which she can't make anymore, is there a website anyone knows of to sell them on?
She isn't interested in making money from them, just getting back what she paid, she's only 16 and I don't want to see her loose her money on them.

I could put them on eBay or gumtree but surely there's places that buy unwanted tickets these days?

Ebay is ok
I know someone that sells tickets there on a regular basis and makes money from it (sells above face value)

Wait until a week or so before when the concert is likely to have sold out, then put them on eBay, you will make profit too.

If it wasn't in Dublin i'd have had all 3 off you. Me and a few mates are trying to find some.

Fair play to her for only wanting back what she paid, I wish more people did the same.

Try here: https://www.scarletmist.com/default.asp

It's an 'ethical' ticket exchange website where everything is sold for face value.

That was awesome! Probably one of the more interesting reads in awhile. That’s great to hear! Please let us know what you think of it. I am greatly enjoying it, myself.

Thanks for the update.

Put them on eBay, fingers crossed.

Isn't it illegal to resell tickets on ebay for a profit?
