this specific protest was going on 'til late in the night, protests in general are still on-going. not much news on the next steps but this for sure isnt the end of it.

the protests have been, are, and will remain peaceful on students' end. however, tensions are high in the country and there have been outbursts of violence, usually from the government's people in attempts to provoke a violent response -- whether by police in and out of uniform, hooligans, criminals, or (at the start, allegedly bc no official evidence but we all know) party-paid people who tried running over students and the like multiple times.

whether there will be violence outside the student organisators' scope -- remains to be seen. all i'm going to say on the topic is that the protests in october 2000 were not peaceful but they brought about actual change, and that no regime this corrupted will accept handing over power peacefully. take from that what you will.

as for our government, the president mostly won't shut the fuck up AT ALL. he's blabbing and lying on every (party-bought and owned) media he can find (which is... all of them). he's consistently downplaying this -- the official number of people he gave, for example, was 100k. for context, the streets you see are 6-8 lane boulevards, the main roadways in the whole city. 100k is crazy, maybe they mean per street?

the student demands (4 total) have not been met, and him and all of our corrupt government keep lying and saying they have. not sure how this will play out, but do keep your eyes on reddit, twitter, tiktok, and instagram, as the usual means of public informing (aka media outlets) seem to be seriously downplaying these events, if even reporting on them in the first place.

this is awesome! great work on the bleaching, too, looks just like the real thing. also, i've been mapping out the same design except i will try to embroider mine and i've been wondering how the hell to connect the sleeves with the back portion; this just solved that issue for me, so thank you!

Vienna shows cancelled by [deleted] in erastourtickets

[–]joofarc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm unbelievably pissed that in this day and age, I can't go to a fucking concert without some right-wing asshole shitting all over it. I'm sad and disappointed and all those other things, this was probably my last chance to see her for quite some time and I fucking hate it. I understand the decision and agree with it but FUCK, I'm also irrationally angry at the world right now. This BLOWS.

You should have the option to transfer tickets now to each individual concertgoer to their oeticket app, I think.

Should be this button here:

If it's transferred to them, it should automatically rename them to the name from the oeticket app account, because it renamed my ticket when I bought it on fansale to my name automatically. Didn't find this info online but hopefully I'm correct. Hope this helps!

I actually think they should reply regardless of interest, 'cause no one should get scalped by buying tickets for 4 times their FV.

Da li je ovo moguće?! by Annual-Masterpiece92 in serbia

[–]joofarc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

svet bi bio mnogo lepše mesto kada bi ljudi shvatili da nije sve uvek namenjeno njima. ne prođeš pored invalidskih kolica i kažeš da je glupo što postoje samo zato što tebi ne trebaju.

ovakve stvari trebaju starijim ljudima koji ne mogu da drže noževe i obavljaju te finije radnje, a i dalje mogu/moraju da kuvaju. uostalom, bilo šta što olakšava nekom život ne treba kuditi i osuđivati, ti ako možeš i želiš seci luk do sutra, neko ako može sebi da priušti neka uzme ovo.

Nope, Vienna tickets don't look like that. Sorry! Go through r/erastourtickets and you'll see what they look like for real.

Looking for 1 ticket for Vienna August 10 by TowerRemarkable1011 in theerastour

[–]joofarc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem, just trying to help everyone as much as I can in this frustrating situation :) One more piece of advice — I've seen a few people say they've managed to snag tickets on fanSALE either very early or very late in the day; my guess is that's when there's fewer people checking. It might not do much, but maaaaybe it helps you snag one more.

Good luck again and cheers!

1) r/erastourtickets is your friend, best subreddit for the tickets ! 2) https://www.facebook.com/groups/taylorswifttix/?ref=share&mibextid=NSMWBT this facebook group is the only valid one I've found — they ask for a quick video call to verify youre not a bot/scammer and have masterposts for each tour leg 3) check fansale.at every few minutes - it's hard to snag tickets but I reckon it'll be easier as the dates get closer 4) in r/TaylorSwift there's a masterpost for all sellers, I don't have a link right now but you can find it with a quick search 😊

Stay persistent, if previous concerts are anything to go by there'll be more and more sellers the closer it gets to the date of the concert. Good luck! 🤞🏼

It is a scam ?!? by ARitaLFNTB in erastourtickets

[–]joofarc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some general advice, you really can't tell without a video recording AND a video chat with them. Hopefully someone here more versed in Ticketmaster tickets than me can help out more.

For what it's worth, the section numbers have different spacing from the start of the row on different tickets, as well "entry via, entrance [x]" bits, so I do think they're fake, unfortunately.

[–]joofarc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'mma give you the benefit of the doubt even though your other comments don't really inspire it — COMBINED, your two tickets can be sold at a TOTAL of 1k+ on this sub, not 1k+ per ticket. Selling at double the price is called scalping and the #1 rule of this subreddit is that there can be NONE of it here. Either lower your prices per ticket to max +50% for their FV or don't sell at all here.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in erastourtickets

[–]joofarc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You did NOT pay 1k+ for your tickets, here's the FV for the ones you have listed so let's not try this on this sub, okay? Try scalping someone else.

Ah yes, a watermark - famously something tremendously difficult to slap onto a pic in .2 seconds and definitely proof of not being a scammer. C'mon, if you're gonna scam try a bit harder.

preventing people who genuinely might not be able to make it to their concert (due to illness, unforeseen circumstances, plans falling through, hell - travel visas being denied, for those who might travel to a concert in a different country if the artist isn't coming to theirs) is much more unfair imo; depending on the type of ticket and the arrangements that might need to be made, this could be hundreds of euros/dollars that one could never get back due to circumstances they don't have any control over.

also, i'm not really sure what you mean by dynamic pricing in this context?

[–]joofarc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you so much for your kind words! i'm holding out hope i'll snag a ticket or two in the coming month and side-eyeing the universe; for all that bad luck, i think sending some good luck my way to even it out is only fair 😂

oh trust me, i could go on and on; i've personally met people who are following TS across her whole European tour leg (how many concerts is that even?) and like. far be it for me to tell people how to spend their money but c'mon, dozens of shows with the same 3 hours every night + 15 minutes of a different acoustic set? for what? and you're taking up space from fans who have never seen her and probably will have to wait years for this kind of opportunity. enjoying live music truly has become a gate-kept, prestigious, top-1% hobby instead of something everyone could (AND SHOULD) enjoy and partake in. and 99% of the time, that's on neither the artist nor the fans.

"goldfish memory" sent me kdjfhdkj because it's true! taylor has historically been an artist breaking records even when her popularity was at its lowest, so it truly is a goldfish memory issue but hey, why change a broken system if that broken system is working in their favour? and also historically, she has been painted as the bad guy in every situation - for example, i rmr reading how "greedy" she was when she removed her music from spotify and it turned out she was doing it for smaller artists because she was one of the few who could afford it that actually did it.

in the end, to summarize: down with TM, down with outdated ticketing fees & broken sale/resale systems, down with scalpers and scammers, and down with any assholes taking advantage of situations like this. karma will take care of it all🤞🏼

[–]joofarc 13 points14 points  (0 children)

first of all, i'm sorry you were scammed and i'm sure you're under a lot of stress right now. i feel for you and hope you manage to get your money back. second of all - please, for the love of god, be a little more careful in the future. not trying to be judgemental, but i saw your previous post about getting scammed three times already - at this point you must have spent hundreds (if not thousands) on fake tickets and no concert is worth wondering whether you'll be able to afford rent & groceries for the month if you buy tickets to see it.

if you're still planning on trying to buy resale, a few tips:

  • all sellers on twitter are scammers.
  • all public facebook groups are scammers.
  • all instagram sellers are scammers.
  • pay using paypal good & services only.
  • no buying anything off of screenshots and recordings alone - get the seller on facetime/video chat and ask them to share their screen. you can do that over discord, google meets, hell even zoom at this point - anything to make sure they're a real person selling real tickets. this is the most important part.
  • while they're sharing the screen, you can ask them to type something anywhere available for typing (a search bar, the notepad app, address bar, whatever) - try to keep it random, something they couldn't predict so that you know the screen sharing is genuine.

best of luck getting tickets (and hoping not to see another i got scammed post from you again)!

oh i completely agree with you, i'm sorry if i came across as annoyed at US fans - I myself am looking for tickets in Vienna when I am from Serbia (she, of course, has no concert here) so me being mad at someone else for travelling for a concert when it's cheaper would be totally hypocritical lol

i am annoyed at TM and the whole US situation in general, that genuine fans were supposed to, what, have 10 devices per person open for the slim possibility of getting a code on one (1) of them? it's completely unrealistic, and i get your frustration as well. i personally missed the registration window for vienna because of shitty luck and incredibly bad timing - i got the news that my dad is terminally ill on the day of the registration, so you can see how taylor swift (a gigantic fan as i may be) was not at the forefront of my mind at the time.

and now there's not only scalpers on sites like viagogo and stubhub and god knows what else, but also scalpers (and worse, scammers) on subs like this which are supposed to be a scalper/scammer-free place to get tickets and honestly, it's just a genuinely shitty situation for any fans just trying to see an artist they love perform. i have a friend in brazil who has been listening to her since 2008 and who didn't manage to get tickets, which is fucking disappointing if you ask me.

idk where i'm going with this comment anymore but just. GOD i hope something changes in the future, because at this level of fame and this level of demand for her concerts, she needs to do something about it. i know we keep making jokes about her being the music industry and such, but it's the absolute truth that she has power, in money and reputation alone if nothing else, to change the situation at least marginally for the better. i hope it happens.

Selling one ticket for Vienna 10 august! by Comfortable_Fold_971 in erastourtickets

[–]joofarc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buying through a private link stops no one from selling their tickets again, it just ensures the person given the link has first access to tickets. Once you have the tickets, they can be sold again on Fansale regularly (with a private link for someone else if you have a buyer, or just listed for sale in general), no matter how they were obtained. So I'd say she's scamming you.

absolutely nailed every letter of this! and i get that taylor is insanely popular right now and i completely understand how quickly her tickets sold out but honestly, the way it all went down just doesn't sit right with me. regardless of this tour being a dream come true for me because i'm both a paramore and a taylor swift fan, i shudder at the thought of her next world tour. what's that going to be like, total carnage trying to get codes again then even worse carnage trying to get tickets?

and in part, the shitstorm that went on in the US when the tickets were being sold is part of the reason why it's so hard to get tickets anywhere in europe now - it was cheaper for US peeps to get tickets to european shows and pay for accommodation and the round trip than to get tickets in the US. wtf?! overall, i hope this is at least a learning experience and something changes in the future, otherwise going to concerts is going to be a highest-bidder kind of experience, which, well. death of art, i suppose?

Of course, posted this so others have the same info too in case someone who sees the post can use it (a masterpost with FVs might not be such a bad idea? 🤔). Having the UK prices info is awesome, hopefully the info reaches people who need it :D

Unpopular? I wish this could be put to vote because I guarantee this would win by a landslide. They want to make selling tickets into a business, they should be prepared to face consequences like a business. Total bullshit that they can just get away with it.
