Game night tickets

"Who cares what their site looks like right now if its easier to do at home and easy to use."

Robbo my point was if the website comes across as unprofessional or unreliable will patrons still throw their credit card details across it as easily. There is still a big concern with a large part of our population over internet scamming, credit card fraud etc etc and the media don't help over publicising individuals misfortune that normally can be avoid by some common sense.

"Buy a ticket and print it at home sounds a good concept. Is it unique or the norm?"

Camel31 it has been an option that reduces the handling/ticketing fee charged by Ticketek and Ticketmaster (two of the major ticketing outlets for Syd/Melb) for at least two years now possibly 3 or 4 or even 5.

I've got a query about the Season Tickets, if anyone can answer.

I bought a Courtside Season ticket and part of the package was a parking pass for the season; however there was no slip, or sticker etc. for that.

Are we meant to just flash the season pass to the ticket guys on game day and they let us in? or was the pass meant to be picked up from somewhere else at the game this past Sunday?

The thing I like the most is that you can purchase a game ticket, and print it yourself at home - no need to have it posted or pick it up!

You couldn't do this previously? Pressumed this was the norm these days.

I have no problem with changing and moving away from Venuetix, the bigger ticketing agencies often take too much as a ticket/handling fee. Just to me the ProTicket website comes across as very un-pro and the fact you cant purchase tickets yet, what would be the reason behind this?

Giving them time is also fine, but should a ticketing business require banner and google advertising on their own business website.

Further to that showed the ticket site to a couple of others and things mentioned
- Is it a scam site
- Looks fake
- Why do they only sell Newcastle Jets and Adelaide 36ers?
- Why wouldn't you just buy them through the club site or league site?

Couple of things re tickets.
Why can they not be purchased now, a great pre-season game, plenty of media attraction news & radio coverage now is the time fans would start to think of grabbing a ticket to the home opener?
New website is launched, season launch teaser is up but if a fan starts to get excited or interested in going they are told not for sale until 21st Sept?
The chances of them remembering, returning to purchase or forgetting until the next big news item maybe after a few games draws their attention again?

Secondly the company that is selling the tickets website comes across as pretty poor - I have never heard of them but hope they have some sort of store/newsagent selling outlets?
Any professional website for a business that needs to run google ads and banner ads to create an income is a worry and looks unprofessional (no offense to Hoops Isaac as one can understand sites need to be funded.)

Unfortunately very un-impressed by the ticketing option there. Especially considering the level of professionalism and enthusiasm that has been shown so far in every other aspect of the SOS team. This choice seems a weird one.

Perhaps a bit of research has been done and Venuetix sales were not very high, mainly season ticket and walk ups - this may explain this decision in a way but in the age of internet selling your product online should be a easy and professional option for all businesses.
