Swans Board Grand Final Planning Thread

[vonn]

s**t, I don't remember it working like this last time. I've only got 500 in my account. Surely I get to choose the seats I want (the cheapest), it doesn't just select tickets and charge me automatically?

It just selects tickets and charges you automatically.

 

[Borough Blood]

So if it selects tickets worth $600 and I only have $500 I miss out altogether?

It selects the best available as well from when you are drawn from the ballot

Yes. If you have 2 registrations in you need to have at least $800 in there or you could potentially lose out on both. You basically get whichever tickets you're given from the cheapest up to $399.

 

[Borgan]

so the most expensive tickets are $399?

I'd transfer funds across your bank accounts (same bank) if I were you, that's the only instantaneous method. I transferred an extra few grand in there a couple of days ago for two tickets. Just in case tickets are like $100,000,000,000 or something. Did someone say #anxious?

The most expensive tickets I THINK (lost the letter) are $399 for adult but you never know what additional fees. Just put in $1000 and feel safe.

A big weekend coming up...I have p2 tickets in the ballot and if the Storm get up tonight, will be off the the NRL Grannie as well. Briefed the wife....setting expectations early.

Yep. Pretty sure the registration fee covered the transaction fee last time but not 100% sure.

MaccaKnowsBest How do you know they're coming out of our accounts today and not tomorrow?

Just going by what's happened in previous years . But it's the Ticketek so anything is possible.

What rough time has it gone out in the past?

 

[Artax]

Hopefully it's today & not tomorrow. The wait is a killer.

As I said before, a lot of people were making comments that money was being deducted early afternoon on the Saturday in 2014. It was definitely before the Hawks vs Port twilight final.

Here's the ticketing thread from 2014. Don't know what time but it was on the Saturday when money was coming out.

On the plus side... We win the flag every time I have a kid

Hope your wife likes popping kids out then

What's everyones thoughts grand final morning? I was pretty keen to get along to some form of official breakfast. Would love to go to the north Melb one but just too much money. Assuming swans are at that one. I know the Hilton do an official one which would go alright. Anyone wanna dress up and join?

Was it P1 then P2 then P3 or was random?!
Anyone remember?

 

[MaccaKnowsBest]

I would assume P1 --> P2 --> P3. Obviously if you are a P2 but didn't register until the P3 ballot, you would be randomised amongst all the P3 members.

Honestly can't see any P2 barcodes missing out

For a ticket? Yeah I guess. But not all will get a seat.

Big woop - I'll handstand the 3 hours if needed....

Let's hope we are locked in. I'm out of Perth at 2ish. Land at 730.

Be horrible to get stuck standing only for new seats to be available if GWS win.

At the end of the day I'd stand just to be there.

 

[Chaisa]

I mean I would but the rest of the family isn't so keen.
