Can you buy concert tickets online?
 

I live in the states, but im visiting japan this winter, so i was wondering if i can buy the tickets to CDL (when they go on sale) online somehow. Or is there a number i can call to purchase the tickets from the states.

thanks!!

Yes, you can buy them online but only second-hand. You can try Yahoo! Japan auctions or you can try a pretty reliable re-sellers site here: http://www.ticket.co.jp/

Tickets for Japanese concerts are never available by phone to those outside of the country.

What if my friend in japan calls in for me...what number should i use?

^Couldn't you just ask your friend in Japan to try and buy them for you? It would probably be less expensive that way. :shrug

True, but i rather buy them myself.

When does the ticket usually go on sale anyways? This is the first time i plan on going to ayu's concert so i hope to get decent seats.

When the show is officially announced to TeamAyu members, that'll be kinda your "warning" that the tickets will be onsale to the general public soon. I only get the website, not the release alert e-mails, but a TA member who gets those e-mails will probably post something somewhere about the concert being officially announced.

EDIT: lawl, it looks like the show was officially announced not 5 minutes before i posted this! :P Shows how much attention i'm paying. :P

wow...is the ticket really on sale now??

does anyone know the number i can call? cause there is way to call a japanese number from the states. i do it all the time lol

As far as I know, most ticket sales go through convenience stores in japan (like Lawson & Family Mart)... I don't think there's a ticketmaster equivalent over there.

Honestly I think to buy any from the USA, you'll just have to wait awhile until secondhand ones are available at Yahoo! Auctions Japan or ticket.co.jp.

If you want better prices, you should have your friend in japan go to Lawson or Famima when they're available to the public (I don't know if they are yet but it's worth checking), and then you could pay him back, or send him the money so he can get the tickets for you & send them to you.

yeah i guess thats the best idea. thank you guys!!

The tickets will be aviable for purchase from 2008/12/14（日）10:00am on

i'll try to get mine from lawson that day.
