spare tickets

This is a question for the mods -[sorry possibly should have sent a private message but wanted to gauge interest to see if its a good idea] is it possible that people could post up here if they have spare tickets available that they want to pass onto people within the boards community. I'm well aware you can't sell them for profit - feel it could be useful if 'friends' on boards provided spare tickets information that they had for whatever reason.

Just thought I'd ask - I know they is loads of people still looking for tickets so even if they picked up a ticket for something, if could make their day and tickets wont go to waste as such.

thanks

ps - i am not a ticket tout

Seems like a good idea. The website says you can exchange the tickets amongst your friends/family members for face value so i dont see the problem.

Excellent idea! I have been on the London 2012 website whenever I can for the last 3 weeks and there is no sign of tickets for the sports I want to see. A very frustrating experience as I am waiting to book the flights, depending on what tickets I manage to get

That's a good night's track and field! I have just the 50km walk myself. Hoping to get an athletics session, but after watching the site like a hawk for the last few weeks it is impossible to get them there as they seem to sell out as soon as they are put up on it.

Anyone know if you only get the free travel pass if you have bought your tickets from Locog? Just wondering if you bought them through the Dutch site would you get the free travel pass?

According to the Dutch site, the tickets are being sent the first week of July which is this week.

I'd be nearly sure the travel passes would be included. The dutch crowd got their tickets from Locog, so no reason they wouldnt pass them onto us. They're just the middlemen.

Yeah expecting mine this week. Bit sick of waiting for them at this stage.

I'd want to be getting some more travel passes for the €100 I'm giving them to send me two separate envelopes with tickets in.
