Las Vegas End of Presale/General Sale Discussion Thread

[popbellydancer]

my mom got this in her confirmation....

Thank you for your order. Your tickets willl be mailed via US Priorty Mail and will be shipped within the next 60-90 days.

 

[Thora]

my cc has been charged, but tickets have not been printed. does anyone who bought presale tix show that their tix have been printed yet??? when you look at your order history thru unlv, there is a spot for tix being printed.

Nope, I went on earlier this morning just to see what my status said, and noticed that "printed" section too. Nothing there just yet. My CC has been charged, so I do feel very relieved having seen that.

from my confirmation:

Delivery Method: Priority Mail (USA Only)
If you have selected the MAIL, FEDEX, PRIORITY or EXPRESS MAIL options, and you live in the United States, your tickets will be mailed no earlier than one month prior to the event date.

it's not going to take that long, it will be as quick as the tickets purchased through ticketmaster.

Whew! ... After getting shut on on GA's right at the starting minute of LA, I was able to score 1 for VEGAS at 10:00 today!!!!

 

[FitzChivalry]

Congrats. That's awesome.

Did any international Interlanders take part in the presale?
I just had a quick look at the general sale and one of the options for shipping was "Will Call (International Only)", which wasn't there in presale

Anyone?

 

[U2Flame]

I just got two GA's off the UNLV site!!!

I kept trying and...tada...I got two to come up. At 12:39 PM...almost two hours after sale time (I am in Mountain time).

Try right now!!!

well you never know

 

[agentmissa]

so tickets did go on sale today? not on ticketmaster?

 

[mtnfox]

yes. not ticketmaster, but here: http://www.unlvtickets.com/specialevents/

 

[DRay9911]

not that it matters now because the damage has been done for those who didn't know about unlvtickets. but ticketmaster has a 'find tickets' link that redirects to unlvtickets.

yep, got a GA in the presale. rang UNLV, they said all international orders are automatically changed to "will call". looks like they still charged me the $12.50 priority shipping though, wtf

So what happens with that then?

 

[waynetravis]

Nevermind, google helped me

 

[Daddysgonnapay]

Got 2 GA's... easy as pie!

So much for the "good authority" over at U2.com who said they were sold out.

Yay!! so why would they say that if so many peeps were able to get GA's? seems odd

I looked this morning and didn't see that...

 

[lemon_drop]

I just called up unlvtickets, and asked Phil who answered really pretty quickly, where exactly was my seat.. and actually, other than it being off side/back its the first row, and it happens to be a really narrow slice, like a pie slice, and it's one seat, at the first row, however, it says row 2 on my receipt/confirmation.

Strange set-up, so others in section 134, row 2 is the first row, and so forth.
Too much to hope for that UNLV seating chart is bunk now is it? I would prefer the seating chart that U2.com has, or ticketmaster.
Blah.

Other than that, I'm so excited to have found my way back to 'my' people, lol... since there isn't that many U2 fans around me, that I can get my fix any time day or night.

yeah baby...

 

[kafrun]

kaffy? any luck?!!

there are still seats...better to have a ticket than to not know you're getting in. i suggest picking up a 30$ one so you're in the door at least. then if you find a ga between now and day of, you can always sell your seat!

No luck. Didn't buy a seat either

One of the moderators stickied this message on Zootopia regarding Vegas Will Call for international purchasers. I'm still not clear on why the hell they're charging anything for willcall but at least you'll get 5 bucks back.

"Any U2 Fan Club Members who live outside of the United States and purchased tickets during the fan club presale that paid the $12.50 priority mailing fee will be issued a credit of $5.00 per order. Their orders will be adjusted to reflect the International Will Call Delivery Method, in which the standard cost in $7.50, in the place of the $12.50 Priority Mail Charge. These credits will appear on their statements within the next two weeks. International Will Call will be available for pick up at the Thomas and Mack Center Box Office beginning next week, and at the Sam Boyd Stadium Box Office the night of the performance."

I got 2 tix for my sister and I, Section 128 Row 9....Since we wouldn't be able to get there early anyway for GA, and we already have GA for Rose Bowl, I didn't even go for it...so that weekend is going to be fucking awesome...Friday in Vegas, Sunday at the Bowl!

sorry to anyone who couldn't get tickets, I'd keep trying, there's some really good seats out there that I'm still able to pull up

 

[BEVERLY56]

It's pretty amazing that there are still some decent seats available. Perhaps anybody who gave up earlier should try again just for the hell of it?

 

[Rob33]

hmmm...I was just able to pull up a seat in section 104...do you guys think that would be a better experience than section 128? I figured seats in the 104/105 area are too much off to the side...I kind of wanted to be in front of them...does that make sense?

 

[DRay9911]

makes total sense. go with 128

[Rob33]

makes total sense. go with 128

well that's reassuring to hear...great! thanks and good luck to everyone! There's still tickets available!

What's so bad about a seat? haha...there's some good ones still left!

In any case, I just tried about 10 times for ya, nothing yet...I'll be trying periodically throughout the night though...I'll let ya know if anything comes up
