    Can you not sell them on the London2012 site? Much safer for both parties surely?

  • I've reported Rooby's post as spam so anyone who wants to buy random 'Paralimpic' tickets from a stranger on a messageboard better get in quick.
  • Hi I went on the website, and managed to get tickets for two different events, on the same day (tomorrow!), for events in totally opposite directions, so cant do both, Eton and greenwich tomorrow with an hour in between!! If you want the tickets, I will give them away at cost price, £ 10 and will provide appropriate evidence.
    If not, it is a shame to waste them, so please pass the word on!
    best wishes,

  • If your wanting tickets then go to 2012ticketchecker.com as previously mentioned, the guy who set up the website is called Ben marsh you can follow him on twitter at benmarsh to also receive twitter alerts. Helpful tips that i can pass on is....apart from firstly going on 2012ticketchecker .com, set up two accounts with two email addresses on the official website for tickets if your wanting to go to different events on either the same day or different days. Also, if you have tickets in your shopping basket and you are unsuccessful at buying them leave them in your shopping basket and don't close the webpage as when the alert sounds again telling you tickets are available they will be in your shopping basket already and you will have an early advantage of buying them.

    They've released tickets for both sessions of the athletics on Saturday. For some reason if you search available sessions only, they don't show up, so uncheck this box when searching!
    Just scooped some up with no wait in a queue or anything
  • Got Althetics ticket for Wednesday 5th, if anyone has ticket for the night before instead or swimming on Wednesday 5th to swap let me know please. My second cousins are in the swimming that day so would love to see them!
