Manchester auction - tickets received?

Post by Paul Zagreb »

I managed to get tickets for the 20 June Manchester show on ticketmaster auction - ticketmaster site tells me my tickets have STILL not been dispatched ... did anyone else who got tickets this way get theirs yet?

thanks!

You are not the only one waiting for their tickets to arrive. I was successful inthe auction and paid £120 each, for a pair of tickets for 18th June,Row B seats in the stalls. Ufortunately for me none of my closest friends are prepared to pay £120 for a ticket. so I was hoping to sell the other one over the internet. But now I will need to consider other alterrnatives. I may even take my son, maybe?
Any sugestions?

You're best option may be to offer it for sale at cost price at http://www.scarletmist.com and agree to meet the buyer on the day. Since it is now only 7 days before the concert you could also telephone them to see what is happening - someone suggested to me that they are holding them back until the last minute (they promise to deliver not less than 48 hours before the concert) to stop them being traded for higher prices on ebay! Normally, I would never get involved in such auctions but I noticed 20 minutes before the end that it was still possible to get excellent seats for only a little more than cost price. Having bought the tickets legitimately, I really do think they should send them as soon as possible.
