It's a partial success I'd say...all the touts who signed up for the last presale would still have had active memberships for this one and got the codes. It'll be interesting to see how many tickets end up on ebay before the end of today. That's the way I'd measure how successful the pre-sale codes are.

Pffft, no chance, even if I wanted it, would I ever get made a mod

You know, there's really no need for a new thread, please post in the already existing Wembley 2010 thread
-
Yeah, from what I gather codes are unique and linked to usernames.
-
Go read the presale thread in the news area. It'll tell you about the Thursday presale as well. If you don't get any there then you can try on Friday. Otherwise, sorry....keep your eyes on Musebay and Scarlet Mist, sometimes face value tickets will pop up.
-
Why not try reading through the existing threads? It's probably been answered a hundred times over in one of them.
-
Good, because the code is also linked to your username. You need both to buy pre-sale tickets, just giving out the code wouldn't work.

Nope, asking for other members' pre-sale codes is a no-no.
-
Might be an idea to stick an announcement at the top until after the presale, just so everyone gets the message
-
Unfortunately if he was not a member before the presale was announced then he will not have the code. There is a second presale on Thursday that is open to anyone, see the News secion for more details.

wmv is a Windows Media Video file. You'll need to either find a piece of mac software that will play it or convert it to a format macs recognise.

Ahhhh...so that would be the picture Tash posted in Banter then
I didn't actually realise the new video was supposed to be played tonight...ah well, shame for those who have to wait for it
-
Ooof, getting epic load times on the board tonight...is it because of the 700-odd people online?

Did the seller forward you his confirmation email? If so then you can use that to check on ticketmaster's website whether your ticket details match what is on the ticket itself. Failing that you may need to call ticketmaster and ask them.

Most reputable sellers of tickets have their own payment systems set up, the reason sites like that one use paypal is because it's cheaper and easier to set up than a full-blown internet payment system. Makes it easier to set up, get a few orders then fuck off without trace. Try looking through http://www.scarletmist.com every now and then tickets will appear, and at face value. It's basically a fan-to-fan ticket service so you'd be paying the person selling the ticket directly by whichever method you agree on. But DO NOT under any circumstance go through any site that is not an officially accepted ticket seller. You only need to look through most of the terms and conditions of these sites to see why. Mostly they offer SOUVENIR tickets - so you may not get them in time, or they may not be real, or other things. If you can't get tickets, then it's best to just hold your hands up and admit defeat. Of course you can go to a venue on a night you want to see a band, and about 5 minutes after the main gig has started you can get tickets dirt cheap off the touts who at that point just want rid...you'll miss a couple of songs but it's worth it for the savings.
-
Dodgy as hell, I wouldn't trust any ticket site unless it's a major official ticket site. The fact that they offer Paypal as a payment method marks them down as a cowboy company. There are tickets still available from http://www.gigsandtours.com so go there and get them at face value, rather than potentially risking your money on these dodgy sites.

Zaphod Chizzlebrox replied to kev's topic in Muse.mu Support
The pre-sale system was designed to minimise the number of people registering just to get tickets earlier than the general sale and then flogging them on eBay...although this has still happened, rather annoyingly. Unfortunately registering for just the messageboard wasn't enough, as the pre-sale codes were given to people who registered to be part of "The Resistance" duing the treasure hunt stage. It's not nice, but it's done for a reason. Best of luck with getting tickets on Friday! -
The simple answer is be more careful in future, and buy tickets only from reputable sites. Sorry, but you were scammed.
