Which of these AT08 Tickets are best? Need advice!

**Love Appears** · #1 9th April 2008, 08:58 AM

So, I got the okay to go to Japan for AT08. Great!

But, I'm really stressing out about getting tickets. I want the best seats possible.

I've been looking around on Yahoo Japan and have found some listings, but can't figure out which seats are best. I really want to go to the 6/29 show. So here are my options:

http://209.85.135.104/translate_c?hl...tion/k56706801

Full listing of 6/29 dates:

I need a pair of tickets.

Am scared if I don't act soon they'll be gone, but I don't want to get ripped off or pass on great seats because I don't know the stage layout very well. Any advice would be appreciated.

hi!
i don't know which is better

Thank you.

I ended up actually going with the 1st one. They're kind of in the corner I believe, but they're front row seats and the price is very low.

If I come across better seats (say, the A section in the center) I'll just sell or trade them.

hahas yea
congratz on getting AT2008 tickets!!! =D

btw just wondering if i wanted something
would you by any chance be able to get it for me then ship it over?
^_^

Me.... no. I cannot read Japanese. But I'll tell you how I got what I wanted!

Go to www.celga.com . They are a fantastic business that will help you buy and bid on Japanese items. For instance if you want to bid on tickets, just send them an email with this info:

Spoiler:

and they will bid for you, then ship the item to you when they get it.

just that if i wanted more ^_^
hahas

I don't know if this helps but I think if you're looking for really good seats, you should be looking at something B-block or A-block (though A-block is really hard to find.) I *think* the B-block tickets should be right in front of the middle stage, like, actually in front of it (so you'd have to turn around to look at it), but it'd depend on where you are. A-block would be right in front of the stage. I have C-block tickets for the 29th as well, and fdjp told me that they were pretty good seats...

EDIT: Meh, came too late. Oh well, congrats for getting your tickets!

Hehe... I see. So you want me to help you buy something while I'm there and ship it to you? Perhaps that will work.. you can PM me if you want!

Thanks for explaining. Apparently my tickets are A7. So does this really mean I'll be right in front of the stage (but probably on the side of the stage?)

When buying things in other countries, BE CAREFUL.

I'm not sure about the USA, but Canada has a limit as to how much you can bring back in the country. Since both countries are similar, I would assume the rules and regulations at the customs will be similar as well. Make sure to get as much information as you can before you leave!! You wouldn't want to come back and get some stuff taken from you, right?

I'll be going to Japan next year, and I feel exactly the way you do, I'll be buying as many Ayu things as I can while I'm there. But the professional in me(because I studied in Tourism & Travel, I've got a bit of knowlege on regulations and a stuff with customs), keeps saying NOO STOP!! xD Be careful~ That's all.

For your tickets, A7 should be front row, but if the seller doesn't provide a map or drawing of the arena you're going too, it can be tricky. Every arena is set differently, depending on how it's set up and how big they are. Where is the location of the concert you're going to?

Hey! Oh believe me, I realize I can be an impulsive buyer... but when I'm surrounded by Ayu goodies, I visualize myself especially freaking out and wanting to buy everything I see.

So yes, indeed, you must practice restraint in that area.

Thanks for the heads up about that though. It's a good thing to think about.

As for where I'll be going, I'm going to the 6/29 show, which is in Yoyogi. Anyone have an official layout?

Neo Daydream · #16 9th April 2008, 03:10 PM

yeah i've been looking at those on Yahoo auctions Japan too... >.< gotta find a good but affordable seat >.<

i think i'm gonna go for the B6 ticket tho i don't have the money yet >.<

astameth · #17 9th April 2008, 03:11 PM

The first auction is not for arena tickets, but first floor.
That mean far from the stage.

**Love Appears** · #18 9th April 2008, 07:54 PM

Oohhhh man.

So A7 is that part way in the back corner? Dangit. I thought I was getting a deal.

I dunno what to do. I already bought out the auction. I really want better seats than that, so I may have to just cut my losses and buy another pair.

Neo Daydream · #19 9th April 2008, 08:03 PM

did u say ur getting 2 tickets? who's going w/ you?

Itz so hard to find good affordable tickets >.<

**Love Appears** · #20 9th April 2008, 08:18 PM

Yeah, my boyfriend is coming with me, Neo Daydream. I converted him into Ayu Fandom.

It's so cool, we listen to Ayu together and watch videos and DVDs together. It's much more fun than having no one to be a fan with. ^^
