Obviously a long shot but this thread is for anyone who may have one or two spare tickets and will sell them at cost price for a friend. Feel free to private message me and we can discuss.

Cheers[/b]

^ Good luck, but not sure you should put your phone no# in a forum that can be read publicly (by anyone, not just those who are members here). Could leave you open to scammers etc.

Post subject: Swap ticket threadReply with quote

Here's a specific one that may just suit someone else out there in Magpie land.

In the frenzy on Monday morning I managed to score two standing room tix for the prelim, but they are in different stands (one in Olympic, one in Southern). I was hoping to go with a mate, so I'm wondering if anyone wants to swap either a Southern Stand for an Olympic stand, or vice versa?

It's a long shot, I know, but let me know if this suits you.

Cheers
Jon

You can access Southern from Olympic or vica versa. Just print out another ticket where you want to stand (either S or O) in case the officials police standing room areas. Your legit tickets get you through the gate so stand wherever suits

Thanks Diamonds

So there's no issue entering through a gate in the Southern Stand if you have a ticket for the Olympic? Or can you walk between the stands once through the gates? I have looked everywhere online for an answer to this question but couldn't find one

Cheers
Jon

I have 2 ticketed seats for Friday night's final; 1 adult and 1 concession. Seats are not together but 1 bay apart.
Wishing to trade/swap for something of similar value.

Legitimate tix that I can't use. Shall I bin them?

Not sure what your problem is Tannin. The subject of his post is 'trying to sell tickets at cost for frid night prelim'. That's not scalping, nor is it illegal. I would have thought that a legitimate opportunity to buy tickets to a sold out prelim. would be welcomed.

I'm having more trouble trying to off load these tix than buying them. How ridiculous. My ad keeps getting removed from gumtree and AFL Memb are monitoring my ad and instructing me on how to sell.

No Mike. He is saying "something of similar value", which is obvious code for "lots of money".

Scalping is illegal, so you can't join a website one day before a big final and spam out your first five posts saying exactly why you joined (to make a killing), you have to be a bit subtle about it - e.g., "something of similar value".

Any normal genuine non-scalper would come straight out and say "selling at face value" or "fave value +10%", or made that plain in some other way instead of hinting.
