At this pace non of the initial lucky dippers will make it to the PIT.....

That may be true.
Maybe they gonna use the lucky dips for "carre o"r or "cat 1" tix.
I seems there are still plenty of these.

Yes , got 2 pit tix too for Paris 3 , lucky dip price

I hope this is not a mistake like they did in may during the general sale...

Did you get the E ticket (pdf)?

Downloaded the pdf tix directly from my U arena account.
At the moment I haven't receive a confirmation mail, suppose this is still to come

Confirmation mail received...

How did you solve the problem with the error message in the end?

Congrats!

The billetterie is now jammed as I think Roger Waters went on sale

Well if that means that original lucky dip holders won't get a chance for the pit, its just fvcked up, honestly.

SERIOUSLY???? NOW you can get FOSSE for tonight, for either Lucky Dip tarif or regular tarif. For you to choose.....

I think they opened the champaign a little too early....

I've got 2 No Filter Pit tickets available for 22nd Oct show. Face value 450€ for both. Email me wickerman767@aim.com

This is so messed up the way tickets have been sold for these Paris shows.
I do hope they have emailed everyone that bought pit tickets for regular price in the initial sale and had them retracted to offer them again this week.

Nate

E-mail sent!

"you get a pit ticket for 220"
"oh sorry, we take it back, now its 75O+"
"you want a chance to be in the pit? buy LD for 50"
"still want pit? now you can have the originaly advertised 220 tickets"
"oh btw, we didnt say anithing, but now we have pit for 50, because @#$%& people that bought LD"
"you cant refresh the site all day long and you dont want the bullshit vip package? @#$%& you too"

realy nice.

Just out of curiosity where are LD tickets sold at UArena webpage? I can't seem any reference to them on it!

Yes. Somehow I would not say this is disorganized or messed up but very well organised.
The first pit tickets for regular price were invalid was because they first wanted to sell as much VIP packages as they could. Also Fosse (or) was hard to get but Carre Or and other seated tickets were available all the time.
Just to let people think all other tickets are sold out and buying a seated one. And fans who desperately wanted a Fosse (or) ticket had to buy a VIP package.
So now that they sold as many VIP packages as they could, they sell the rest tickets for cheap prices. This system is precisely planned to make the most money possible.
This was not only the case with the Paris shows but also with most of the other shows. Also for Copenhagen, Stockholm, Arnhem etc. cheap pit tickets were popping up a few days before the shows. Though Paris has the most ridiculous system, since now they are selling Lucky Dip tickets that are no Lucky Dip Tickets since you can chose where you end up... That's a shame really for the folks who bought real Lucky Dips and now probably get inferior seats.
I bought Fosse Or for regular price some months ago and I'm sure it will be fine if I come early but I also feel punked there are Pit tickets for 55€ now. (though congrats to the lucky ones..)
I also bought a Pit ticket some months ago but got that Email like many others that it is invalid. The whole system is inscrutable for most fans and even if you know how it works you still might have a job and not able to wait for days in front of your computer screen in order to pick up a 55€ pit ticket shortly before the show. But scalpers have so much experience with such systems that they end up buying all those tickets.
I think for UK next year I will show more patience with buying tickets. For all shows this tour, tickets came up again shortly before the shows. So next time I will travel more spontaneously and book all hotel rooms and train tickets with an option to get refund.

No such luck.

Had I known the pit tickets would be available stand-alone later on I obviously would not have gone for the Fosse Or package but now it's too late to change (and the package is non-transferable anyhow). Oh well.

I can’t believe I missed every single pit drop, especially this one. Does anyone have an extra pair for Sunday or Wednesday?

It is very easy to miss it, it only appears for very few minutes. I spent several days trying and was lucky today.

got 2 no filter pits lucky dip tarif for the 25th. e-tickets received by email.
can't say how happy I am!!

How long were they available for? Should I waste my time refreshing pages all day?

Congrats to all the lucky ba$tard$ who got great seats on the cheap!

I'll be on the cheap floor section tonight (in my yellow Stones shirt if someone wants to say hi).

A ce soir :-)

Me too Woz, just walked the Champs-Elysees for the first time.

Have a fantastic show everyone!

Has anyone tried to phone these clowns to find out what on earth they are playing at with the ticket sales?
Given what happened when the pit tickets first went on sale and were then quickly retracted I would be concerned if I had purchased one today for €56 I hope everything works out good for everyone that holds tickets no matter what price you paid.

Please elaborate, Bardo -
You mean you have (had) Lucky Dips for the final gig, next wednesday (Oct. 25), yes?
And you were contacted just now (today - ...), per e-mail, regarding these "Lucky Dips", confirming you'll have Pit tix for them - nót as some sort of upgrade (so without surcharge/ extra payment), in fact: the pit tix were included in that mail... is that correct?

Seems like a very, very strange way of operating.
Definitely a first!! ("Lucky Dips" normally are to be picked up at the venue...)

I have LD for Oct. 25 as well; therefor I'd like to know what's happening.

Thx for extra info!

EDIT - It's OK - no need to elaborate any further. I just checked the previous pages over here...

I sincerely hope for everyone involved the UArena won't retract these purchases today just like they did in May...



(anyway: congratz to all with y'r PiT's. You're in for a treat!!... )

Were these pit tickets for the price of Lucky Dips only sold for the show on the 25th?

This morning on the U Arena on line billetterie showed up "No Filter Pit" tickets at "Lucky dip" price, i.e. 56 euros ca.

I got two myself. They are elctronic tickets. On them it is stamped "No Filter Pit Ticket / Placement Libre" and "No Filter Pit Ticket / Lucky Dip Tarif"

There's already the indication for the gate. They are pit tickets already

I bet (hope) this means that every Lucky Dip for the night would turn into a no filter pit placement

yep, I don't know what happened today. I was lucky dipped in Zurich, and had/have regular tickets for Lucca, Barcelona and Paris II.
I had a feeling they were releasing pits for Paris III in these days, and I was after that since 3/4 days.. Today I just was lucky enough to be in the right place at right moment for this very strange procedure. I'm afraid of getting an email saying that this was a mistake, in fact everytime I hear my phone ringing, I'm shaking ehehehe
