Switzerlan - Ireland Trip

nothing yet , will be expecting delivery between tomorrow and the 4th of Oct.

The one thing that does worry me is that (from what I have seen by posters on the Irish socccer sites on the web) that hundreds...yes hundreds of punters are currently waiting for tickets from Euroteam......and yes , they still advertise that they have a few tickets left....they are still taking orders and still debiting cards for a promised delivery between the 25th of Septand the 4th of Oct.

I am beginning to smell arat.

Where are they going to get all of these tickets is the big question?

It is very worrying in this regard.

Just yesterday The Peoplesflag lads booked another 7 Cat 2 tickets for the game ...no problem. ....huh? What's going on?

I mean I ordered from them back in July....so how many orders have they taken (and Money) from the Irish fan base?????

Will the first person to get their booking from Euroteam please post here stating seat number , etc

Judging by what the prices have gone up to on euroteam, I don't think these guys will have a problem getting the tickets even if they have to pay over the odds themselves.

For example you can now bid for tickets on ebay and get them for around £100 sterling each. Euroteam are charging well in excess of this and so could get someone in Switzerland to buy a load in this manner and still make a tidy little profit for themselves!!

Has anyone purchased tickets from ebay.ch yet? If so could you enlighten us as to how you got on....

Cheers,

On the Euroteam website, for one ticket its 300 euro plus 30 euro for postage. Thats 10 times the face value.

Its a tough decision but I'm sure there will be touts outside the stadium if it comes to it I'd rather watch it in a bar in Basel than get ripped off like this...

I bought tickets from swiss ebay...No problems at all, but paid 120 and now need to move them on as I got some FAI ones!! I got two available if anyone wants, but I am sure I can sell in BASEL!! I would be doubtful of that site you mention as the swiss guy said tickets sold out in 30 mins!! but I really hope you all get them...Justin

I also bought a ticket on ebay.ch about 3 weeks ago, spent £75 on a single ticket in C1 sector.....but currently more for multiple tickets. If you use ebay.com/co.uk it's the same procedure. If not, set yourself up to use ebay.com or .co.uk asap, then access ebay.ch and start auctioning.....by the way a friendly German neighbour would be useful or www.freetranslation.com to help out. I sent the money to Switzerland via a friend over there as the banks charge a fortune for money transfers. The ticket arrived by registered mail without a hitch. It's all kosher, try to get a seller who has a few recommendations for authenicity, if not, chance your arm. See ya in Basel!

So caseyjay registered on the 24th of September and is already flogging tickets. I'd rather risk sending money to the Swiss ebay.

Condex, I registered so I could sell them on to an Irish person instead of touting them in Swiss....Not an issue anyway as I have had a load of mails and have arranged to meet someone in Basel to give the tickets to. Hope your sucessful and less of the doubting!! Have a good trip...

I'm naturally suspicious, but can be wrong.

I'm picking up a ticket off a Swiss fella in Zurich only problem being that I'll be in the middle of 'hardcore' Swiss fans. Should be OK though I'd expect 10,000 Irish fans to be at the game, they usually get the tickets from some place.

He selling it to me at cost price I'll help him at some point to get a ticket to a premiership match, nice people the Swiss.
