Bought too many Taylor Swift tickets

61 replies

We have bought two additional Taylor Swift tickets through AXL in a moment of madness (pressure decision!)

If we need to sell/transfer these tickets is this easily possible? Probably looking to transfer to a friend mo

I doubt you’ll have any problem filling those seats, one way or another. I don’t know about AXL but Ticketmaster usually ask you a bit before whether you can still go or do you want to resell!

Sell them to me!!

Starsandrain · 12/07/2023 12:29

Lots of people will be desperate for them! Including me if they are for London!

JorisBonson · 12/07/2023 12:30

Put them on Twickets, they'll be snapped up.

r0ck · 12/07/2023 12:33

I’ll buy them from you if London!

Is it possible to buy too many Taylor Swift tickets?🤔

I panicked too and now my DDs are going on two separate dates! I couldn't get four together so ended up with two Wembley dates which I'm a bit sad about.

The ticking timer meant I was worried I'd lose tickets completely so thought that way got everyone in.

JustLurkingAway · 12/07/2023 12:35

I've also bought too many tbh, one set of 2 for June & one set of 2 for august

Winter2020 · 12/07/2023 12:37

I have no way of knowing either way but users please be wary of fraud re buying tickets from a stranger online. OP I'm sure the avenue you bought them from will have an official reselling platform.

Conkerqueen · 12/07/2023 12:37

Yes you just click transfer on the app and put in the email address of the buyer

tabulahrasa · 12/07/2023 12:38

i downloaded the AXS app and it says you can transfer them on there and sell them for face value.

Though, if you were transferring to a friend, could you not just all go together?

I'd need proof you were real though 😂

DoThePropeller · 12/07/2023 12:38

Ugh it is so gutting to read of people buying too many by accident when so many desperate to go! There has to be a better less stressful system for this where people don’t have to panic buy.

My teen DD is absolutely desperate to go but I read the odds of getting tickets in the general pre-sale are 1.8%. Fingers crossed for resale nearer the time.

You can do it via the ticket master app but only when the tickets have landed in the account.

I’d just go twice 🤣 I went to rep twice

TheBestUsernamesAreGone · 12/07/2023 15:25

Are these tickets you're all buying from the Midnights website pre-sale?

I only did the pre-registration at the end of June and haven't had a code yet so I'm panicking I've missed out

I know. My DD has done so well at school this year and this would be a very well deserved 'reward' for her.
I really hope you (and we) get to go.

LittleBumblebee3 · 12/07/2023 15:31

@DoThePropeller @TheBestUsernamesAreGone i hope you guys manage to get tickets 🤞🏼 I’m a “too many tickets by accident” one 😬 Tried for 2 for Edinburgh on Friday, got to payment then it said payment had failed and it wouldn’t let me back on. So tried later on for 2 Sunday tickets and got them! Then got email confirmations about an hour later for BOTH nights 😬 and 2 lots of money taken from my account (which I really couldn’t afford at the moment 😬).

Will be selling a standing pair for the Friday through ticketmaster when available!

Oblomov23 · 12/07/2023 15:58

Eh? You've gotta be joking right? They are badly in demand and you will be able to sell in a nanosecond.

AgathaMystery · 12/07/2023 16:08

I can’t only see VIP ones now I’m at the front of the queue 😵‍💫

Yes, the codes for the general sale should be out Friday - I’m assuming because that’s eh eh the presales are all done

Thanks all. We were just surprised that we got 2 and decided on whim to try again really. It was a bit pressured to be honest! (Don't usually compulsively buy 🙂

Dudes. Don't buy shit off strangers on the internet. Hmm
