I noticed when I joined this thread the link to the landing page , is that going to cut the stress on getting through quicker ? I'm thinking of finding someone who lives local and doing a second registration there to maybe try that avenue . I think a good " going" forward plan is a must so we don't all end up here again in 2 years time . look forward to thoughts and pointers Secret resales survivors club. 1 big list of organised groups and teams + helpers who all have the list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No substitute for an organised group or group of 8's with a list of who tickets are being bought for. All with different IP addresses and preferably on different browsers. No mad F5-ing - just all committed to it as the bell goes off at 9 o'clock. After that - its sheer bloody luck EDIT: if it wasnt so far off I'd suggest we set up such a thing for next time based on the folk in this thread (who have earnt their spurs on the commitment front a zillion times over) Edited June 17, 2017 by Ted Dansons Wig 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutchmaster Posted June 17, 2017 Report Share Posted June 17, 2017 Fairplay @lobo! Great to see so many in this thread end up with tickets!

Woke up this morning to a text saying the ticket is at my friends house waiting for me. I can't actually believe it. 4 days before the festival gates open. Its been so much stress but now it all seems totally worth it and I can't begin to explain how happy i am. Thanks so much for all of the help, especially to the cucumber who immediately offered advice and help to a newbie/lurker on the forum looking for resale tickets. You are all hilarious, incredibly kind and weird in your own ways and i couldnt have got through the past couple of months waiting this out without hanging out with you guys, this thread definitely has the Glastonbury spirit. Good luck to those still looking. Now wheres my upvotes?

barcelonista1899 Posted June 17, 2017 Report Share Posted June 17, 2017 Long time lurker of the Secret Resale group this year here, I have previously worked at the festival (last 4 years), but my current 'day' job means I can't take off the 7/8days required this year. I had a place assured this year but had to cancel, which was absolutely crushing to do . Tried in the re-sale (as I can manage to play the sickie card for a few days!), no luck and had been on the page checkers and refreshing every day since. It's really starting to sink in now, especially with Glastonbury beginning to be mentioned very frequently on social media and the radio. Normally I would be spending the weekend in Bristol before heading to the site on Monday.. not this time! The ever lasting hope of this group has been brilliant and it really encompasses the love that people have for the festival- which is what makes it the greatest on the planet. It's great to see many people finding a way in eventually! Fingers crossed we'll all be there in 2019 (I'm changing jobs so won't be bound by pesky term dates! ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get yourself into the local pubs around glastonbury over the weekend and just attempt to speak to as many random people as you can, you'd think someone, must know someone...
