I feel violated by the ticketmaster experience. Sat there for 20 minutes waiting for the queue then someone else in the office logged on and got in virtually straight away.
Once I was in it was 5th tier only and down in the pockets. I tried several more times and then got some on the wing top tier but row 4. Tried to purchase them only to realise that ticketmaster wanted me to log in and I could not remember my password. They sent me a temporary password but made me change it before I could proceed by which time those seats were gone. I am now top tier row 22 :'(.

I hope the game is not as stressful.
The whole password changing thing happened to me and I got timed out... was a nightmare
 
Look at this from Gumtree posted 30 mins ago

Selling 4 tickets together in section 511!
Selling all 4 together
Open for offers
Can’t attend as have other commitments:(

Tickets are hard copies

Call or txt Dean
0422369091


Why not send Dean a commisseratory text supporting him now that he can't attend the game an hour after he bought the tix

This makes me so angry...
And I'm pretty sure it is now illegal to resell tickets over the net for more than cost value.

Last year the Eagles said that if they found out about any scaplers, they would track down the bar codes used to buy those tickets and maybe rescind the memberships...

I think Victoria recently passed a scalping law for certain events/venues, but it's not illegal in Perth.

Oh and I did text the guy on Gumtree and asked him why he couldn't go. He said a death in the family :rolleyes: That was sudden. I offered my sincerest condolences and $100 for the 4 lol

I sold 2 tickets to the Essendon game at face value (what my membership cost) on Viagogo. No markup. Sure enough the Eagles found out after the fact and threatened to cancel my memberships if i do it again.

Oh wow. If true that is really sad. :(

Glad you could help him out. ;)

Ok. The Eagles are true to their word then.

FWIW I can understand people needing to resell tickets because of unforeseen circumstances. It is just the scalpers who are just out to make a profit and pry on desperate supporters that make my blood boil.

Wow really? They don't target anyone on Gumtree making a fortune.

What cut did Viagogo take?
 
Really, more people who didn't think they might need their password in advance? The mind boggles
I actually logged on at 8:30 and reset my password with the temp one they emailed me. The issue was when my tickets were confirmed and they prompted me for my email address/password they wouldn't allow the temp one and I had to go back in and change it.

Good websites force you to set a proper password after the temp one. Ticketmaster fail

Username checks out

They do make me laugh - tell you to use ticket resale. Give you credit for 50% (or less!) of the ticket value, on sell for full value and make 50% profit. You cut them out and sell for what you paid and they threaten your membership

Guess season tickets would have been easy to trace - surely they have buckleys of matching any finals tickets as all are randomly allocated?

You'd think all the AFL could do was cancel the ticket if they knew the exact details of the seats...
 
Lol @ the scalper who just rang up 6pr and called Karl a moron. Oh dear

Tickets are brought with your barcode - so would be easy to trace members tickets. Not so much GA tickets.
 
Which tickets give access to the River Room or do you take your membership card with you ??
Your membership now accounts for FA as they are AFL events. I suspect they are having functions / corporate events in there. Unfortunate, as I used to enjoy loading up with 6.2% beers before, during and after the game.

It was pretty arrogant of me to think I could just Rock up to the River Room whenever I wanted ...!!
