Tickets acquired. Now hurry up, Friday!

 

[bringbackbucky]

So you can only buy a concession ticket if you have a barcode linked to a concession membership?
That doesn't seem right.

What ******* bullshit. Missed out on the tickets I had in the cart trying to work out the concession thing.

Just buy what you're offered and you can upgrade at the ticket gate on game day. Did it last week.

 

[bomberclifford]

Cat 5 is now best available.
**** that shit.

 

[bringbackbucky]

6 tix in 121. Happy with that

 

[Ian Jackson]

I had a PC and two phones on the go, got thru on phone at about 9.03. 4 seats sec 338 row F, very happy!

 

[power_army]

137 Row L. WOOHOOOO

 

[Hodges 153!]

Block 210 Row H, looks like Im sitting in the box next to Ken.

 

[Rising Power]

Bay 407. Weird but ok.

Top of the Bradman Stand. Sat there (edit 408) last game and had a great view (a little high but pretty much central). Virtually right below Bruuuuuce and Gav.

I want a concession ticket with an Adult barcode. There's no obvious way to do this.

 

[Arsene Wenger]

surely cat 1 couldnt be sold out already?

 

[raffdog]

it took me until 9:18am last game to get on after starting to try at 8:50am

I started at 8:55am this morning so i expect it will take a while yet

Do you hit refresh? If you do it puts you at the back of the queue each time

 

[raffdog]

Yes it is could only get cat 2 as best available

Yeah that might be a problem...

 

[Rising Power]

I selected Cat 1, then told none available. Selected best available and got Cat 1 in 302 Row R.

In my other browser I selected best available and got Cat 2 in 302-1 Row Z. What's the -1 mean?

Went the first option. Accidentally selected refundable tickets in my rush so $55 down the drain.

 

[Janey]

Got in quicker than the last time, bay 200 in the western stand. I haven't sat in the western stand for ages, but I did sit there the last time we played Richmond in a final

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Remember, there's an obscene share of tickets allocated by the AFL to the opposing team, so there's every chance that a bunch of Cat 1 tickets will be released once the system decides that Richmond members aren't going to use them. Waiting around for this to happen can be nervous and risky, though, because if you miss out on that second wave then you're stuck picking from an even smaller selection of Cat 2-4 tickets.

Yep probably about 9.45 to 10.00 there will be Category 1 available.

 

[Cheesey Mac]

6 seats in 336, first time my group has been allocated up in the red seats, much prefer the bottom deck but I wasn't going to click back and try again... Especially considering how quickly our initial Cat 1 allocation gets exhausted.

Happy just to be going... Now we just need to win! Carn Ports!

 

[Festerz]

settled for 4 in 125.

Get to see the players run out and cheer them back after the win!

 

[Chewy316]

Section 311 row GG. I assume that is probably the top row of the West stand? Just happy to be there regardless.

 

[steve4445]

got 8 tickets 334

Just go best available, you get cat 1 if they are available anyway.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

That's how it is supposed to work, but ........

 

[Coobk001]

Waited in queue from 8:50 - didn't get into about 9:15... ended up with 5 tix in 149

Just FYI, its not a queuing system. Its a luck of the draw, that your refresh ping connects to a vacant site access spot.

 

[Coobk001]

Just go best available, you get cat 1 if they are available anyway.

My biggest issue with the whole ticketing system is their interpretation of best available. I was on at 8.58, so fully ready to go at 9.00. Copy and pasted barcodes in, fastest finger in the West through the ticket allocation page, and bang, somehow I still got stuck with bay 213. If I'm nearly in the first few hundred to buy, which I would have had to have been, I should've been far more central on the wing to that.

The whole system for allocating is crap.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

I managed to get 2 tickets in 208 which is a restricted view. Anyone know how restricted?

****ing Ticketek timed out while waiting for payment on 212. Bastards.
