61  Club Arnage / General Discussion / an ebay sellers description of a pass for sale at £129 on: February 14, 2005, 07:19:10 pm
 
Due to a drop out from our group, I have one camping pass available for this year's Le Mans (2005). Join the 100,000 Brits on this annual pilgrimage to Le Mans for the greatest motor race in the world.
 
Camping passes are in phenomenal demand and usually sell out around 18 months before the race. (There are very few hotels in the vicinity of Le Mans and they all sell out years in advance!) Camping is the "proper" way to experience the real Le Mans. But if you are going to be camping, make sure you are in one of the best sites and critically one equipped with showers!! Shocked
 
This pass will give you access to the Beausejour campsite from Wednesday the 15th to Monday the 20th of June. Qualifying for the race takes place on Thursday evening,  :-\Friday is party day with the circuit open to drive your own car on (not to be missed!) while the race starts at 16:00 on Saturday. Beausejour is a relative new site but one that is growing rapidly in popularity with a huge number of people returning having stayed there in previous years.
 
The great thing about Beausejour (aside from having showers) is that it allows you easy access to so much of the circuit. The corners of Arnage and Indianapolis (arguably the best spectator points, as they are the slowest points on the track and you can get so close) are approx 10 minutes away on foot.  ???Beausejour is also just inside the Porsche curves and is the only place you can watch the cars going through this sequence. The village of Arnage is a short walk with its bars and hypermarket. Cunningly, there is also a shortcut from the edge of the site through the inside of the circuit to the area in the middle of the track known as the village.  :oThis means you don't have to fight your way through the main entrance and the back of the grandstands. It is also worth noting that Beausejour is a flat grassy site unlike most of the others which either suffer from being very dusty, having concrete areas (not great if you are trying to pitch a tent), or uneven surfaces that can damage cars.
 
This pass is for one vehicle with no restriction on the number of passengers. The only other thing you will need are general admission tickets which you can buy on the gate.
 
Don't get scammed  ???by the tour operators out there who will charge you silly amounts of money for the same thing.  ;DBuy a cheap ferry crossing, a camping pass and general admission tickets and you will save enough to pay for all your food and drink when you are down there (and probably your petrol there and back as well!!)
 
I have written confirmation from the ACO for this pass and I can fax a copy of this to the wining bidder. Please check my feedback and bid with complete confidence. Any questions, please use the "ask seller a question" tab. Don't miss out on the best weekend of the year!!

What a joke this person should be done under the trades description act  imho What do you think?

I have 3 Maison blanche tickets to swap for 3 tertre rouge/musee/chappelle if any one can help. Many thanks
63  Club Arnage / 2007 and earlier / Re:Greedy People on e$$$ on: February 11, 2005, 12:42:36 pm
Over the last few years more and more tickets have been appearing on Ebay . I use Ebay on a daily basis in my search for Le mans related memorabilia for my private collection. It never ceases to amaze me the prices that they fetch. Only this week a tertre Rouge campsite ticket fetched £360.00 item number 6509045480 Another seller both last year and again this year seems to have an abundance of tickets last year netting £1000,s profit this year to date he has sold 2 Maison Blanche tickets for £122 each item numbers 6507379808 and 6504964296. I  find it ludicrous that I cannot get the tickets that I have requested from the ACO even though I have ordered them 15 months in advance and have been a member since the scheme started we have also supplied the ACO with a disabled pass. I have camped at tetre Rouge for many years as one of our party is disabled and as the campsite is close to the track it is perfect That of course means nothing last year we were allocated Beausejour and this year Maison Blanche  how much further away can you get?.
I ask the question how can other people buy tickets just to sell at vast profits and genuine enthusiasts like myself and others struggle to get what we order. In response to the posting Re; listing guidlines for tickets on Ebay it also clearly states that tickets cannot be sold if it is expressly forbidden to do so on the ticket. On the reverse of each ticket it clearly states that the ticket/sticker cannot be transferred or sold. Violators will immediately have their sticker withdrawn and will risk legal action Ebay appear to ignore this as I have informed them that the sale of Le Mans tickets and passes is in contravention of the rules of the ticket. To date to the best of my knowlege this has been ignored by Ebay and the ACO

Another poor showing by the Aco and the money grabbing ticket touts incidentally I have 3 Maison blanche tickets that I would like to trade for 3 Tertre rouge if anyone can help Many thanks for taking the time to listen to my ranting
64  Club Arnage / 2007 and earlier / Re:Maison Blanche/ Tertre Rouge tickets on: January 03, 2005, 10:15:24 am
Thanks to everyone for the interest but I am only interested in exchanging for tertre rouge.
65  Club Arnage / 2007 and earlier / Maison Blanche/ Tertre Rouge tickets on: December 31, 2004, 11:59:01 am
I have been allocated 3 Maison Blanche tickets when I ordered 3 Tertre rouge (The usual ACO tale ) So if anyone has three Tertre rouge tikets I will be happy to swap. Many Thanks
66  Club Arnage / 2007 and earlier / Re:Tetre Rouge camping permit required on: June 07, 2004, 03:05:00 pm
There was one on ebay yesterday that did not sell price was £35.00 the item number was *deleted* You may be able to Email the seller and buy it
Good luck

(Moderator Note: Sorry to do this, I know this wasn't intentional, but rules are rules.  'No links or references to sites which could be considered "advertising"' posting the item number is the same as linking)
67  Club Arnage / So You Think You Know About Le Mans / radio Le Mans competition last year on: June 04, 2004, 08:11:28 pm
There was a competiton last year on radio Le Mans on the most exotic form of transport to le Mans the final was between  a relica 375MM racing ferrari and a C Type jaguar Any ideas who eventually got the vote Huh
68  Club Arnage / 2007 and earlier / Re:Ebay on: June 04, 2004, 04:41:22 pm
Yes there are a lot of tickets on Ebay that will not sell and people will be out of pocket. For the speculators that bought extra tickets to make a profit and stopped people like me getting the tickets that I wanted shame. Grin There was three Tertre rouge tickets on Ebay this week that I would have liked as I have camped there for the last 10 years (However the Aco decided to give me Houx annexe.)The Tertre Rouge tickets  did not sell at £40.00 each  so I emailed the chap and asked if he would like to sell them and he offered them to me for £300.00 Shocked  so I said no I like tertre rouge but not that much. I was under the impression anyway that it was against Ebay trading policy to sell event tickets if the ticket expressly says that you cannot which the tickets do. See the reverse of the tickets for tems and conditions.  
69  Club Arnage / 2007 and earlier / camping du houx on: June 04, 2004, 03:35:15 pm
I have just seen 4 Camping du houx tickets which are situated together being sold on Ebay for just £40.00 each which I believe is below face value. they are not up for auction they are buy now the item number is 2248892376 I thought they might interest someone incidentally it is not me that is selling them I am still looking for 3 Tertre Rouge and have 4 Houx annexe to swap

As a footnote I have just checked the last 7 transactions of the seller of these tickets and they are 7 Camping  houx tickets sold individually  for  £205 ,£205, £205, £311, £295, £191, £180  Shocked Obviously a profiteer and not a real  Le Mans fan  >:(I am in the wrong business. Huh

To the best of my Knowledge all these tickets are now gone
70  Club Arnage / 2007 and earlier / Re:swap 4 houx annexe tickets on: June 02, 2004, 08:50:26 pm
You are correct in it being European however it is the Nurburgring but when?
71  Club Arnage / 2007 and earlier / Re:swap 4 houx annexe tickets on: June 02, 2004, 07:26:57 pm
I am not sure a friend sent it to me a while ago I believe it is in America somewhere. I am sure someone will let us know though.
72  Club Arnage / 2007 and earlier / swap 4 houx annexe tickets on: June 02, 2004, 07:07:04 pm
I have 4 Houx annexe tickets that I would like to swap for 3 Tertre Rouge. Can anyone help. Many thanks

74  Club Arnage / 2007 and earlier / Re:tertre rouge camping for sale on: May 27, 2004, 05:34:15 pm
Did I have tertre rouge ticket of you last year I rember the renault alpine I am the guy in the replica 375mm ferrari I am looking for three tickets for tertre rouge as at present I have three houxe annexe
75  Club Arnage / 2007 and earlier / Chapelle camping ticket available on: May 27, 2004, 05:28:24 pm
I have one chappelle camping ticket available at £31.00 plus postage this is what I paid for it on Ebay last week Item number 2246260286 If anyone needs it please let me know I usually camp at Tertre rouge so unless anyone has  3 tertre rouge tickets to swap for  3 Houxe annexe that is where you will find me this year. look out for the 1000 watt karaoke system with over 6000 songs to choose from including the jiffy condom song remember that one ?

Bravo to the person who put the advert on Ebay to educate  ticket buyers that there is an  non profit making alternative  to the greedy  ticket touts who buy up the tickets that you and me would like and then sell them for ridiculous vastly inflated amounts and that alternative is Club Arnage I have had better luck getting the tickets that I have wanted on this forum for the last few years than from the inefficient and incompetent Aco End of rant
