I think people have overlooked this: the reason we have a deposit system is because the sale is held so far in advanced. Which in turn is done because the Eavii want to see the festival sold out before any organising is done because of the scale of it all. You can’t expect people to have a full ticket in price in October / November when the previous festival was only a few months ago. It’s already a case of saving up all year when the tickets are fully paid for on April. deposit scheme is mutually beneficial for both organisers and punters and scrapping it would be a bad idea and never considered -
To you, maybe. The deposit system means that people on lower incomes have a chance to go. -
This is why many of the suggestions on this and other threads over the years can be easily dismissed. The festival will remember not selling out in 2008, and how close that came to causing them serious financial problems. They'll be working to the (probably correct) assumption that one day demand will lessen again - just as it did then, just as has happened at other festivals that used to sell out quickly (Coachella, even Reading did in the past). They're not going to introduce new obstacles that both cost them money and potentially reduce demand. They'd be crazy to even consider it from either angle. -
