News Membership/Finals ticketing

[treeman]

Got home at about 6pm depressed after a shit day, checked bigfooty and got even more depressed reading where everyone was sittting. Poured myself a wine and sat on the couch patting my dog. My partner comes out from the bathroom and says theres a bill on the kitchen table. Great. Walk towards it and its a ******* Origin bill uhhhh what's the damage this time... open up the paper and 2 grand final tickets fall onto the kitchen floor. My partner scored 2 tickets. 2 tickets. 2 tickets to the grand final. I thought I was done and now this. Beyond ******* excited!!!

How did she score the two tix?

Hi guys.
Sorry to intrude, however, I was interested to see if anyone has sold 2 or more tickets to the GF at or near face value? On the Tigers sight I have not actually seen one person asking for multiple tickets actually get them at a reasonable price. Supporters here in Melbourne are desperate to get to the big dance, as I am sure many of you are. Prices being asked are crazy. I am lucky in that I got my tickets but was surprised that people who managed to get extras did not want to accomodate those who missed out. Everyone seems to have a bit of scalper in them.


For people talking about walking around the G and asking for a spare, it's actually illegal and you will get moved on by the cops. You are better off to stand on a busy area leading to the ground and keep askiing for a spare. A mate who follows the cats has done it in the past twice and got a ticket at face value. There are people for one reason or another, usually sick or a car breakdown that can't meet their friend who has the ticket at the ground, so they want to get rid of it at the last minute.

Yep. Price plays a part.

I've got 3 adult tickets and for $10,000 each they are yours.

I'll sell for $30,000 but if not I'll go. Everyone has a price and that's mine.

[Drakescoffeecake]

How did she score the two tix?

Her parents are gold but they're in the process of moving house so can't go, so we had the tickets right from the beginning, but didn't tell me until last night.

 

[adelcrows]

Being on the GC helped in the fact it took me 45 seconds to get my tickets!!

So so pumped now!

[thebirdman 24]

I asked about this, if you do, you go to a ticketek office and they can cancel the original and make a new one.

I'm even scared of holding them for too long lest the natural sweat and oils from my hands cause them to disintegrate before my very eyes

Keep the faith - I got one at face value. There is people out there that don't want to rip others off if they have a spare ticket, just got to find them.

Still hoping to get hold of a couple...

 

[Ramses Red]

I've been gifted a walk-up guest pass to the MCC! You beauty! To say I'm excited is an understatement. Have to queue up super early to get a seat and I'll be surrounded by Richmond supporters but gotta represent the tri colours. Let's do this!!

 

[Tweek]

Keeping out hope that I can snag a couple, but I know it won't happen

[Croweater23]

If people are still struggling with queues, I hear the Ticketek in Port Adelaide is empty
