Hey Guys,

not sure if this is the right place, but I'm too crook to go to the GF Footy show tonight (save my energy for Saturday) So I'm selling my ticket..hopefully to a pies fan. Only have 1 ticket, so you will be flying solo. Section 17, Row S. (It a ticketfast ticket so I can email it straight to whoever wants it)

PM me if you want it, selling for $50 just to get rid of it, should be a great night, but i'll be watching it from the lounge room

I think Mental Magpie is mental.

You can get the official AFL packages with Breakfast for less than that!

I've been on the forums all week, and you should get standing room for around $400, and basic seats start from around $600 .. more of course the better the seat.

You just have to be patient, and respond and make a decent offer as soon as contacted, and be ready to settle the same day.

Remember, the closer we get to Sat, the more itchy sellers will be to offload.



NEED A TICKET?
Well forget paying the mortgage for a while is all we can say. Here are some of your remaining options to get into the big one:

The grand final is not officially sold out. Collingwood is advertising packages worth $1500 that get a wealthy punter access to the Channel Nine grand final breakfast, as well as the big game.
Geelong's packages, which feature a grand final brunch at Etihad Stadium, are going for $1450
Etihad Stadium is selling tickets for $1450. They include admission to the North Melbourne grand final brreakfast.
The AFL Players' Association is even in on the act. Their breakfast bash at the Sofitel Hotel, featuring star players like Adam goodes, throws in a grand final ticket for just the $1800.

Thanks for the advice Fractal, good stuff.

 

[scruffydog]

I'm not even going to bother trying. I might pay $500 or so for a ticket, but $1,500 is just ludicrous.

I can't believe that Pies people are exploiting other Pies barrackers by charging above the face value of a ticket. Why would you??????

Western Bulldogs have reduced their standard seat package from $1350 to $990 but if you contact Dave on 9680 6333 he will sell them to you for $850. The seats are top deck southern stand up the back....

Hey Snag, I understand your theory, but what if you paid above face value in the first place...

I'm just warning people to be careful as I ended up getting scammed $500 for a grand final ticket.

Thats a lie. Scalpers will shit themselves with the weather trust me. I have had tickets offered to me from 400 standing to 1000 premium seats. Heaps of scalpers try and bluff. If there is hail an rain as predicted u will be fine. Why the **** would any one buy of a scalper for $1500 when u can get a package with lunch beers ect and u don't risk the chance of a cancelled ticket ect

Guy offers me ticket in AFL members. I called him up to discuss everything. He even sends me a picture of the ticket. I paid via Paypal. Seller says he will send express the next day and will supply tracking info. Surprise, surprise, no ticket. Guy won't answer phone calls, text messages, emails. I spoke to Paypal and they said raise a dispute and I will get a refund. Fingers crossed. You live and learn I guess.

[rapid123]

Still have two - not looking to sell them separately... Top level right on the wing - should be undercover... rapid1232000@hotmail.com asap.

Tickets still available and considering it's now Thursday evening looking to sell them pretty quickly.. Send e-mail with an offer if you're looking for two..
Cheers

Unfortunately not as the picture is blurry. Scammer said he was using his old nokia to take the picture . I can make out it's a grand final ticket though, just not the important details. My alarm bells should have been activated then. Hindsight hey?

At least you paid with paypal and can get a refund

Is that 100% certain though? My concerns after reading a lot online is that I may not get anything if the seller has no funds in their paypal account or close their paypal account.
