It may be because I haven't had my caffeine fix yet 
but.........this is really flew over my head.
What's your query exactly?
If you're asking about tickets being unavailable within minutes of a code being posted, well I guess that's just the way it goes. Getting tickets is really first come first served so if you're not quick enough then you'll have to rely on the kindness of others, something I often have to do. This is where FMUK really comes into its own - we are lucky to have such a wonderful, generous, friendly & kind group of people here who go out of their way to get tickets for as many people as possible.
Hope this helps. And if not......desculpe!

Re: Tickets 29.1.13 (& others)I give it a year/sff
Hello Marty,
I also had to read your post few times but I think I understand your query; you wonder about this weird thing SFF does sometimes?
- sometimes there is a pop up saying "sorry no tickets left"
- some other times (and for the same code) the booking page loads (without pop up) and shows "Not available" in place of the usual "Available"
I have seen this few times and it seems a bit random. I really don't think there is any meaningful reason behind it, although it sometimes happens when the guys at SFF have not made the booking page fully live and bookable yet.
In any case it is always worth to keep on checking the "old" codes as when tickets are cancelled, some tickets become available again.
Hope this helps

I also wanted to second what you said Celini.
Is there a like button, canadian_turtle? I'm also confused about this :/

There isn't on this forum Livi92, I have clearly spent too much time on Facebook and Pinterest this week!

I actually laughed out loud at that, Beate...Beate wrote:Are you all drunk? This thread is baffling me completely.
You know when you try a ticket code and it brings up the blurb, list of venues and dates/times etc but instead of a circular button next to one option, the button isn't there and the narrative says "Not Available?
The question is why does that happen sometimes (with no locations available whatsoever) rather than the white box of "Sorry, no tickets" left.
Does that help, Beate?
