Green Man Camper Van Tickets

[tedmaul]

What a palaver that was.  Worst successful ticket biting experience ever!

One minute camper van tickets available, one minute sold out, one minute little kid tickets sold out, next minute available.  Loads of our group has ended up paying over the odds for motorhome tickets only to discover camper van tickets then available again.  Loads of us had to buy older kid tickets for 3 year olds and then the little kid tickets came back available.

Total shambles.

One of us hasn't got a ticket for his van now.  Anyone got a spare by any chance?

I'm assume tickets going off availability and coming back on is the result of people initially reserving them but not going through with it (for whatever reasons). Assuming you want people to be able to hold tickets at least for a few minutes to allow time to pay for them there's probably no other way you can do it.

It was all pretty frenetic this morning though, yeah.

Loads of people got kicked out during the buying process.

My guess is the ridiculous 2min idle time that kicks you back to the queue, but the website is terrible so when it hangs for more than 2mins it kicks you out. 

 

Easily the worst ticket buying experience I've ever had
