Are they in the A6 Section?

Yep. I expect them for go for quite a bit.

immel · #**162** 25th January 2007, 04:14 PM

Indeed section A6, which is way off to the right. Like kel64 said they'll most likely go for a whole lot, but due to the off position I'd say it's not worth it, it's better to spend less money and get a more central position further back, then you'll be able to enjoy the light show fully, too.

Can anyone tell me exactly where section Arena B3 iwith seat 191?

I bought tickets and I want to know exactly where it is

immel · #**164** 27th January 2007, 08:20 PM

It's in the second row of blocks, it should be very close to the central stage.

Joeyoh · #**165** 28th January 2007, 01:10 AM

Thought so,

I am so happy!

^ VERY promising gamble for A-block seats. 5th~8th. Not a bad gamble no matter what turns up.

http://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/94252626
^ Hot seats in the center, gamble of B3 or B5 (B4 is the catwalk) from 1~24.

Problem: auctions are for 2 tickets. If anyone is planning to go to 3/11 concert, we can split the price. If I don't snag these, I'm still looking to buddy up for other pairs. Nothing cool gets sold separately anymore. =P

Translating often makes it worse. If you're just searching for a particular thing, you look for keywords, and you learn to recognize the kanji for what you want. And yes, the pictures help a whole lot. For concert tickets, you'll want to look for letters for blocks (A2, B5, etc) or the number 200 (200レベル/200LV) for seating on the sides. Most of the stuff in the title is filler, like where the concert is being held, the date, and how many tickets there are. But for one, you should know where you event is already, and you can always find out how many tickets there are in the description (2枚 = 2 people). Seats are listed with "列" and "番", one is for the row. In a translator, these kanji come out really weird, so it's best to just eye for them yourself.

These are in Yokohama:
Center: A1 100-150
http://page14.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/s48066814
Center: A1 50-65
http://page15.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/t25996045
Center: A1 10-30
http://page6.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/f50554314

they don't really show the block/seats in their pictures of the tickets, it's not very clear to me if those numbers are rows or seats...

And the block plan on yokohama-arena site, isn't very clear about the center either.

Those were seats. I believe 1-30 is in the first two rows.

Yes, every row has 20 or 25 seats, or something in between.

KyahRyorin · #**172** 30th January 2007, 06:19 AM

Jeez, Martin. I'm gonna need this when I go to Tokyo next year for study abroad. Thanks so much. ^^

Hatix · #**173** 30th January 2007, 09:02 AM

Wow, then, seats 100-150 are around row 6-7, those were actually quite good. But they eventually went for 50000yen.
But, good to know, thanks! Will keep you updated

Not necessarily. A1 block sucks. ^__^; It's close, but really hugging the left. You'd be the same distance away if you were in B3-B5, 'cept you wouldn't have to strain your neck. But that's just how I feel.

It's that 'wrong'. You have to be careful with Yokohama, this A6 is NOT in the center, it's on the side (a seat). If you see above the block number, it says arena (アリーナ), if it's in the center ("standing"), it says center (センター).
That's why A6 is not so expensive. See on the site of Yokohama Arena for the block/seat plan (but they only have block numbers for the side, not for the center, but you can see that there are only 3 blocks per letter in the center).

I do get confused with all of these seat numbers

The ticket above wasn't used, it' has been expired...
It's only my collection now... ^^

immel · #**179** 1st February 2007, 04:15 PM

What do you mean when you say "ordinary ticket form"?

The tickets look different depending on from where you bought it, mine is TeamAyu tickets so they come with the big red A on them. But yeah, the text looks the same on all of them, the background is different.

~angel*ayumi~ · #**180** 1st February 2007, 04:31 PM
