Continued from https://www.boards.ie/discussion/2057678685/ireland-ticket-information-thread
The last thread was alerting me every single time someone posted and I couldn't turn it off. Here's a new thread.
I managed to get two All Blacks tickets this morning - Block 528, Row X.
While I'm delighted to have tickets for the game, and I will use them, I would consider swapping them both for a single central Premium level or 500's block ticket plus the cash difference. Face value only. I paid 263 Euro for the pair including fees.
Anyone interested?
To be clear I'm not saying you have to be a paid up member of the club but people who post looking for tickets on toutless are clearly aware of the site. Similar to here you get people asking a question that (in this case was the VF link) a few posts up.
IMO if you were really looking for tickets you would do a bit of research instead of posting and waiting for them to be delivered to you. Call me old school.
Anyway, hope people got sorted today between the IRSC and Leinster branch sales.
Ok, thats great and you're clearly a huge rugby fan who has their bases covered but not everyone is or can afford to be a member of every club or be on top of every single avenue to get tickets. So to claim most other people are 'clueless' because they're not aware that a single Boards.ie thread exists tells them how to get tickets is a weird statement. Also a lot of people have never heard of Toutless.
I'm a huge rugby fan and a member of a club and provincial supporters club. All the same this thread, and toutless have been a godsend over the years. I'm pretty sure a Google search brought me here in the first place. It's not difficult to find.
There's a link a few pages back. You're supposed to be a Vodafone customer but they left the link open so anyone who had it could use it. Ooops
What's the story with Vodafone presale. Do you just need to be a Vodafone customer? I can't access any tickets for sale through ticketmaster? Any ideas?
Just got two tickets for NZ 😁
Expensive but **** it, great seats too.
Do you think the general rugby attendng public are all on this thread and/or Toutless?
Saying they're effectively on 'public sale' is just wrong. I've huge rugby head fans who aren't on boards and wouldn't use Toutless, they're hardly clueless.
Yeah, it moved faster than I expected. Got 2 for NZ. Was originally giving me the gods in the corner of 528 as "best available" but I got lower stand tickets when I specified stands.
Got Argentina through Vodafone link ages ago and am away for Japan game.
The VF link was posted on here and toutless and people still couldn't get them...seems there's a branch presale at the same time as the IRSC today.
Yeah queue was new but seemed to be lots of tickets. Got 2 for each match ☺️
Queue system for supporters club tickets?
That's a bit harsh. Hardly clueless if you're not aware of a Vodafone pre-sale that was barely advertised by Vodafone.
TM started invoicing for club sales last week so you've already started seeing returns for Japan and Argentina via the Vf pre sale anyone can access and then there is the IRSC sale today.
Always suprises me how some people can be so clueless about tickets, even on toutless.com you have people looking for Japan and Argentina tickets...they've essentially been on public sale for a week.
Tickets through clubs went out via ticketmaster over the weekend. Deadline for payment is 5pm this evening.
Expect to see a general release online at some time between this evening and Thursday for any instances where allocated tickets weren't paid for in time
Know him personally, he's very responsive for stuff like that.
Thanks! I emailed them yesterday evening and Barry responded very promptly explaining that I had been removed from their mailing list somehow. He sent me on the link and code so sorted now.
Fair play to him, certainly didn't expect a response that promptly on a Monday evening!
I’ve flagged this on Twitter with them, I see they’ve helped someone else with same issue this evening already.
They've been available for weeks via the link a few pages back. More likely next week for a further release I would say
Any ideas if Japan tickets will go on general sale this week? Looking for one of possible.
Renewed my membership a couple of months ago and got no email! Have checked spam etc.
Nothing.
Anyone else experiencing same?
Ah , alright lads cheers for the replies
Unfortunately, it would be too late.
Current and recently lapsed members were included but anyone joining after the codes/emails were issued at 11.15am this morning won’t receive one.
I would guess too late as the emails have been sent out with unique codes.
Folks is it worth a newbie signing up to the supporters club or is it too late. If i paid the 50 quid will it guarantee me a chance of buying tickets tomorrow
IRFU Supporrs club members....check your email.
Seems they have sent thr code to those whose membership was coming up for renewal...
Prices for NZ game are exorbitant. Business or no business. Its a rip off. I'm not sure what the situation is south of the border but here in the north gas prices are through the roof and many are struggling so 2 of my friends when they enquired about the price gave up any idea of going to NZ game.
What also might be significant is they are playing nz, oz and sa!
As I posted earlier, I've paid £100+ for a nothing special seat (upper tier) in Twickenham and Cardiff for 6 Nations games so the idea that it's an IRFU thing is wrong.
It's simply business! The WRU is selling tickets for a 74,500 capacity stadium to a 3.5 million population compared to the IRFU selling tickets to a 6.8 million population for a 51,700 capacity stadium. The demand is definitely there for the tickets in Ireland and at the end of the day it's a professional game now and making money from crowds at live games is a major income generator. I'm not sure whether the pricing for the New Zealand game is sustainable for other high profile game such as England and France etc. only the attendance at games priced at that level will answer that question!
