Fools guide to buying German tickets

**paul_oshea** · 15/06/2006, 8:46 AM

thats good at least it means more people will be aware of ticket availability. i would imagine a lot of people living in luxenbourg and the surrounding areas will make the trip for this.

Just hope it doesnt alert the Germans to us getting tickets. Wonder how many have actually bought tickets?

sent the info on to a few of lads over in luxembourg - email has gone around the gaa club there - a lot of them will make the day trip down id say - only about 3 hours down to stuttgart from there.

looking at the stadium plan it seems as if most of the tickets are being snapped up at the irish end - still theres a good chance a lot of block bookers are hedging bets.

Reckon anyone who wants a ticket for this one will get one.

Am I missing something here?
Is there a huge Irish contingent living in Luxembourg?
Two of ye have mentioned about Irish traveling from Lux.
Wouldn't have thought there would be alot traveling from there.
Are they all working for the EU or something?

No, it basically says the seats you selected were no longer available and that you must go back and reselect your seats.

If you got the order you will have got a confirmation email within seconds to your email address and the screen would have said thanks shakermaker! if in doubt ring your credit card co they will tell you if they took your money.

Cheers lads, I've found a translation page that is starting to make some sense. Fingers crossed it has gone through this time.

It means that the seats you were looking for are no longer available and that you should select seats in another area and "put them in your basket"

**shakermaker1982** · 16/06/2006, 9:34 AM

look for fussball 1st (at the top of the webpage) and then go from there.

That happened me also the first time I tried ordering. Just like on ticketmaster here it happens when you spend too long purchasing the tickets. The time limit is probably something like 5 minutes before your chosen tickets are made available to the public again. Basically they don't want people spending an hour buying their tickets when someone else could have them.

The second time I was registered and all and flew through it. I even got the same tickets that were taken away originally.

I bought 3 in 66D, but going in a row from back to front. Hopefully I'll not be stuck between hairy sweaty beer-swilling Germans. That's only preferable to a bunch of langers.
