JapanAxe Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Sadly, whatever the face value of the tickets, many of us will end up paying double to professional scalpers who scoop them all up the moment they are issued. The lucky ones just pay the face value plus booking fee plus secure delivery. [/micro-rant] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] SheWhoThinksSheIsBeingListenedTo got on OK with the presale today, and we managed to get tickets for the date we wanted. Apparently the only problems that people had were with the "Visa" verification system being slow to load at times - the presale page had an automatic timeout of 5 minutes or so, and there were a couple of complaints of things being slow and people not getting the tickets. Wonder if that will be a problem on fri morning when it gets busy. Oh, I see there are another 7 dates added. - guess it will now take 35 seconds to sell out instead of 30 seconds.

Tengu Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I managed to get 3 tickets but the seats aren't exactly in a prime spot. I don't mind though, the experience should be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
