Taylor Swift Eras Tour Ticket Swap

Sorry if this has already been asked somewhere else. I wondered if we could set up a list thread for potential ticket swaps!

I have just bought 4 tickets for Edinburgh on the 7th June 2024, obviously I wouldn’t have bought them if I wasn’t happy to travel but I am in the South and any other UK stadium would be more convenient. Posting on the off chance that someone has done similar, but for another venue and Edinburgh would be preferable for them. I know it is early days for ticket sales, but putting it out there for anyone interested.

I would need to check how to do the swap above board so that both parties are covered. Potentially, we “sell” to each other via an official resale site?

I think that would work too and if both parties are honest then they should be happy to do it.

Only the escrow agent need be honest.

The other party might just want to buy your tickets at £2000 above face value, nothing you can do about that, except maybe setting the premium higher.

The only problem with such a scheme is that those parents/fans who cannot afford to tie up £X000 for the time between gigs cannot use such a scheme. Just another injustice for the less well off.

If I had tickets I couldn't use I'd sell them back to ticket master and I'd sit on ticket master and try and buy them there.

Or AXS

And you would be up against a small army of bots.

Also I have only seen pairs and singles, ppl obviously take 4 even if they need 2, you cannot get stuck with these tickets so why not.

Interested in this thread?

Then you might like threads about these subjects:

@chrisaaaaa ive bought two standing tix on there and had others at checkout. You won’t get everything but it is possible to beat the bots on occasion!

Thanks for starting this thread TheVeryHungryTortoise.

We have four tickets for 18th June in Cardiff. We're based in London so would love to swap with someone who may be Cardiff based but has London tickets.

These tickets are still available if anybody is looking for a swap.

Offredsrevenge · 28/03/2024 21:22

I don’t have any to swap but would have the two happiest DC in the world if I could buy any, and willing to pay a good price if can find a secure way to transfer.

Really? Why wouldn't you just sell them via the official resell sites ie Ticketmaster and AXS Are you expecting someone to send you money then trust you to send the tickets once they are released a few days before the event.

If anyone has tickets and, for some strange reason, they don't won't to use the official resell then surely you could just sell them to friends or work colleagues. Selling or buying from strangers on social media is foolish.

Offredsrevenge · 29/03/2024 20:25

I think she is looking to swap not sell!

I check Ticketmaster every evening and not once have I found three tickets for any U.K. or Dublin date. I don’t think anyone is reselling them!

I'm looking to swap as there's no guarantee that I'd be able to get other tickets if I sell my own, we have already tried finding others that I know who I can swap with but it isn't that easy. Plus, we're looking for later dates so we carry the most risk as our tickets become available first. We are looking to use a safe and secure way like PayPal business which we will discuss with any interested party.
Thank you for your concern.

Hi, I have 4 tickets for 20th August, looking to swap. I bought them knowing full well we couldn't make the date due to a prebooked holiday, but hoped I could swap them. Mine are in section 503 (so high up!) Let me know if interested, and we can chat....

Lells2105 · 02/04/2024 20:29

Hello, I have 4 tickets for Liverpool on Thurs 13th June - looking for a swap for any Edinburgh date. Thanks.

chrisaaaaa · 03/04/2024 02:02

We have given up on swaps, going to jump thru hoops to split party across Edinburgh and London, it should not e this difficult.

Anyway, for anyone wanting to swap/sell vip tickets, another hurdle.
"To ensure that your VIP Merchandise arrives ahead of the show, AXS Resale for all VIP packages will close on Tuesday 9th April at 5pm. Any VIP tickets that remain listed for sale after this time will be returned to your account."

Offredsrevenge · 03/04/2024 20:37

There aren’t even any VIP tickets for resale though? I check everyday, all venues in U.K. and Ireland for every date (except August)! I check as soon as I wake up and when I go to bed!

ididntthough · 03/04/2024 21:27

@Offredsrevenge There are tickets coming up constantly. You should check sporadically through the day for new listings as they go quickly.

I have PM'd you x

LittleBumblebee3 · 03/04/2024 22:10

How far before the shows are tickets likely to be ready on the app? I’m assuming the “transfer” function won’t go live until then?

I sometimes try at lunchtime but tend to be in work mode and work FT. I think it’s because I need 3 as I have 2 DC (DH would go if I could get 4 but I only ever search for 3). I never see any available though.

ididntthough · 04/04/2024 23:15

Ah, i can see that 3 might be tricky - fingers crossed for you

JennaLondon · 07/04/2024 18:38

Hi all,

I have 2 x standing tickets for Sunday 9th June in Edinburgh.

I am looking to swap with anyone who has 2 x Wembley tickets (any date)!!

Please let me know if interested - desperate to get these swapped! :)

I know someone who wants to trade their 3 August date for June. It was on Reddit (already talked to the person and they seemed legit). Let me know if i should connect you! My Reddit username is Tovis88
