Re: Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup Pre-tourney THREAD!!!
FIFA is really screwing average joe fans. I've been checking their ticket portal daily and other than 1 window last week where they dropped tickets to crappy games, they have not made anything good available since nearly 3 weeks ago. The tournament is 5 weeks away and they have yet to give average fans a decent chance at getting access to in-demand games. I've been on other sites and those who have been successful have gone to extreme lengths such as waking up with 15 of their friends at the crack of dawn and opening hundreds of browsers at the same time to get a shot at tickets. What a piece of crap organization they are.

Dude, I don't foresee tickets for any big games via FIFA.COM. Matches like Argentina vs. Iceland, Spain vs. Portugal, Germany vs. Mexico, England vs. Belgium, Russia vs. Uruguay, Russia vs. Egypt, Brazil vs. Serbia and Nigeria vs. Argentina are selling on the open market for 5 times the price of the tickets. World cup tickets have become a get rich scam to many people. The real fans like us are getting screwed.

A lot of tickets dropped tonight (Saturday night) and luckily I found out at the right time.Undertaker wrote:Heliopolis wrote:FIFA is really screwing average joe fans.

I got 2 tickets for Russia vs. Egypt.
Most of the games you listed were available but were very hard to get.
I would follow this forum to learn more. The members there say there will be at least 1 more huge drop but more likely 2. All the games will become available but f*ck FIFA for prioritizing everyone but genuine fans who just want to enjoy watching their country play: http://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/russia ... 1/page-423

Re: Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup Pre-tourney THREAD!!!
I will love to watch Egypt vs. Uruguay but the location is too far for me. I am flying to St. Petersburg from Volgograd on June 23rd to meet up with friends for the Nigeria vs. Argentina game, so I can't stay for Egypt vs. Saudi Arabia. Btw, I am looking for Serbia vs. Brazil tickets in Moscow on June 27th if you know anyone that has that tickets. I need 2 tickets.

Re: Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup Pre-tourney THREAD!!!
Because you cant. If you got tickets before the April sales window, FIFA has or is in the process of mailing the tickets to you which means you can't resell them on their website. You can only resell tickets you've purchased since April but even still, you'd do so at a 10% loss.Lager-back wrote:for the people that have tickets that dont need them and are offering them here.. why dont you put them up for resale on the FIFA website ?

British govt travel advice for Russia.

Most visitors experience no difficulties but racially motivated attacks do occur. People of Asian or Afro-Caribbean descent may attract unwanted attention in public places and should take care, particularly when travelling late at night.
