    Hi

    We have two tickets available for a swap. Why? We'd like to be with family and friends in the same stand. (We do not want to sell these tickets)

    1 x Hill 16
    1 x Nally stand

    Options:

    1. Straight swap: Will swap a Nally stand ticket for a Hill 16

    2. Straight swap: Will swap a Hill 16 ticket for a Nally Stand

    3. Upgrade: Will upgrade and swap a Hill 16 ticket for Hogan Upper or Hogan Lower and pay the difference in price

    4. Upgrade: Will upgrade and swap a Nally Stand ticket for Hogan Upper or Hogan Lower and pay the difference in price

    These tickets are NOT for sale.

    If anyone is interested, get in touch. We'll be in Dublin early on Sunday morn & can call to make arrangements. (Donegal fan)

    I have a premium level Hogan stand section 534 and a hill 16 ticket.
    I am looking to swap for two stand tickets.
    I know its an unusual request. Genuine reasons meaning I can't avail of either.
    PM if interested.

    Statement on the Kerry GAA website. All tickets have been distributed down here. And there are still plenty of people looking. I've never seen such popularity for a game. I think it's the fact that nobody expected Kerry to go so far.

    Anyway, I'll head to Dublin on Sunday in the hope of getting one up there.

    Im kind of giving up the search at this stage, not one sniff of a ticket, i do hope the genuine supporters get sorted, see a lot of tickets being touted on Gumtree etc, total disgrace, Im neutral to both teams as I have been on most of my visits to Croker this year since the league final right up to the two semi's...

    No luck yet Shiibata? I am still hopeful, even after being ripped off by Uiseabhi :/

    :o what happened ye?


  • Registered Users Posts: 11 Thumbelina 29


    I was silly enough to be duped by uiseabhi and his son. He seemed like a genuine guy, and in my desperation I guess I was slightly blinkered. Anyhow I am sure he enjoyed spending my money while I remain ticketless :(

    Sorry to hear that you still have no good news on that front:( Have you got anymore in meantime..

    What an overwhelming c*nt. Did he tell you to send money and he'd post tickets or what? You hardly have any contact details for him.

    How did you send him the money? If it was an online merchant (PayPal etc), you might be able to reverse/dispute the payment.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11 Thumbelina 29


    Have email, mobile number and address all of which are probably bogus. I even have proof of address and photo id. I got my friend to meet him or rather his son with half the money. The arrangement was that he would send tickets by registered post. He also supplied me with a fake postal receipt number. I was well and truly done by him/them. Anyhow I have learned a lesson ;) no shiibita no tickets yet......

    Chances are if you have all the above info (email address, a mobile number, proof if address and photo id), you are 80% towards getting your money back. I know people who would find someone with only part of that info! Chances are he also didn't create a brand new identity just to scam money for an All Ireland ticket.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11 Thumbelina 29


    Yeah I know that is possible that I will getmmoney back. I more annoyed though for being so gullible. Really wanted to bring my daughter who goes to every match, I will certainly be wiser after this.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,832 ✭✭✭keano25


    Off down to the Garda station with you in the morning. I wouldn't let that go!

    I'd say the Gardai would trace them easily enough.


  • Registered Users Posts: 791 ✭✭✭sob1467


    Finally got tickets sorted out this evening after a lot of searching. Got two tickets of two different people. Buzzing now.

    Advice for those who do not have a ticket:

    • Keep trying, ask everyone you know even those who you do not think will have a ticket, they might know someone else that ended up with multiple tickets.

    Thing is at this stage a lot of people have asked many people for tickets and some people end up with two or three tickets so there are bound to be spares going around.

    Technique for buying online
    • Create a page monitor alert
    (Chrome Plugin - google it)
    • Save the page http://www.gumtree.ie/s-all+ireland+final/v1q0p1
    • Change the check interval to five seconds
    • Chrome will then alert you with an alarm when a new adds go up relating to the match
    • When you see a suitable add ring the number immediately

    Issues with this technique
    • An alert appears when someone posts a wanted add.
    • The number of adds that have been put up as a joke
    • The number of touts charging outragous prices for tickets
    But for every ten adds that are bound to be at least one genuine add. Also make sure to meet up in person and pay in cash

    Of course you can also go up on the day to Croker, there are bound to be a few tickets floating around Dublin on Sunday morning make yourself a small sign asking for tickets.

    Just keep positive and keep searching and asking everyone.:D

    I did not expect this morning to get two tickets, just keep positive and searching!

    The admins are looking into it, hopefully he will be apprehended. It won't solve my ticket situation though :/

    And that guy/c**t was posting here I see asking how long money takes to get to bank accounts that was sent to him. Probably more victims money that was.

    Sorry to hear.

    My daughter managed to pick up a ticket in Dublin this morning, I think the closer we get to the game more tickets become available.


  • Registered Users Posts: 278 ✭✭cailinardthair


    If anyone knows of someone 1 to 3 tickets. I can find a good home! I know i left it late but worth a shot!
