Tickets arrived yet?

SimonWales · 07-31-2006, 07:53 PM

I know that Ticketmaster say that tkts may not be despatched until closer to the gig, but my last few purchases from there (in fact, come to think of it, every online purchase there) i've received a couple of days after buying....but I'm yet to have received my Damien Vicar Street tickets. Was just wondering if anyone else has yet, or should I start to worry?

A few years back my tickets failed to show that I had bought directly from DRM and I had a LOT of trouble trying to convince them I hadnt received them. Got let in in the end, although it was down to the night as to whether we would get in or not. Tickets showed up 3 months after the gig!!!!

I have never received Ticketmaster tickets sooner than about two weeks before the event date.

It seems that depending on the demand for tickets it takes longer for them to sell out, I bought a ticket for a gig 2 days before I bought the Damien tickets and it arrived late last week (I've occasionally recieved my tickets the day after too).

I think that it's a combination of the fact that it takes a while to process all the orders and to send them out en masse and the fact taht ti's a sell out which means that sending them out late stops people from touting them. Of course people who didn't buy the tickets on-line aren't affected by that.
