Resale Groups

[CaledonianGonzo]

Empty handed here

[Oll678]

Just saw the ticket page for the first time in my life… all sold out by the time I chose destination ect… gutted, at least I know the ticket page is a real thing now though!

[Cheuky]

Did anyone managed to get the two URL's so that we can have a go at predicting Sunday's one?

[Avalon_Fields]

A group of us were trying for one person, no joy.

that doesn't matter anymore, even if you are on the main page and you get a session you can just click through and it holds it. I've just experienced it now, and could go into the Wednesday or Thursday sale.

2/6 here. We go again Sunday. I wasn't one of the lucky 2.

Is it too late to sign up to the spreadsheet for Sunday's sale? Feeling pretty deflated after tonight's sale so looking at any ways to increase ours/your odds! 

[Jarski75]

I got through to enter reg details and it didn't recognise one of my friends.  I carried on for the other person I was trying for but there was no coach options available.  I literally tried every location to see if there were any at all.

 

Gives me a bit of hope for Sunday.

 

No joy on the laptop, 4G got me through

Sold out 18 mins

It was quicker than that I think. I was through to booking page within a few minutes and had checked every departure town in england for wednesday by 6.12 and got 'no shows available' when I tried the thursday page

Four groups out of eleven in the main resale spreadsheet got tickets today for coach sale, looks like decent odds for main resale on sunday

Same here.  No idea what to think about that though, just sheer chance I think.

Whoa that's really good! Is that 4 groups of 2 or 4?

[alibear]

4G here too. Unfortunately the coach sale interface on mobile is HORRIBLE! So much scrolling up and down to find a coach opening only to find they’d sold out by the time I hit purchase. If there are any spots in the spreadsheet for Sunday I’d love my friends to be added - they haven’t been since 2017 despite trying every year ☹️

[Ayrshire Chris]

Tried for a friend but no luck. Four folk were trying for them 

[timbrass]

Nothing here - 4 of us trying....

It was.  I was in - but unable to buy anything - long before the sold out page was up.

Sometimes odd ones drop in so may not have officially sold out 

[Nobody Interesting]

In 10 years of trying in coach sales for other people I am still yet to get past the holding page!

[Looother]

Excuse the newbie question but does this kind of collective efest ticket-buying business happen for the initial ticket sale, or is that just survival of the fittest/luckiest?

It happens for the initial sale too. Usually a couple of posters running spreadsheets. Just as mad a scramble;  there are more tickets but also more people after them.  You have to commit to your group on the spreadsheet, as do other people trying for you.  If someone buys a ticket just for you it will cause the group transaction to fail and scupper the chances of the rest of the group.

Congratulations to those who got them. I do however detect a hint from reading here and elsewhere  that less than usual were successful. Many seem to have go to the booking page quite easily and early only to find them sold out.

I HAVE 1 (ONE) SPACE FOR SUNDAY FREE

 

Any takers message me ASAP. I will update this page when it is filled.

 

I will also accept 2 more full groups of 4 ONLY. I need those requests in by tomorrow night.

 

I would love some more helpers too if possible. If you want to help message on here and I will get back to you ASAP to add you into the group chat and give you sheet access. All helper requests must be in by 13:00 on Saturday.
