Buying tickets used to involve reading the music press on wednesdays and if it was a gig that looked like it would sell out quickly, you physically went to the venue box office on the saturday! Now there's this unbelievable tense 5 minute window instead. I wish someone would find a way to eliminate the tout bots and especially the secondary ticketing systems.

Going on 17th December. So relieved.

Yes, as long as you have sufficient money in your bank/ on your card and ordered no more than 4 tickets you'll be fine, go celebrate!

That happened to me. Luckily Seetickets DID notice I'd bought far too many, but I think they realised what happened, so they dealt with it and I only got the ones I wanted. It did mean another set from Ticketmaster though, unfortunately, because I thought none of the Seetickets ones went through.

It's days like this I miss waiting outside Derrick's records at 7am waiting to get tickets for the PPF tour.
