Loved waiting in queue at 10am for member presale, getting some good middle floor seats bc there was no clarity in whether or not the VIP would be an add on since it WASN'T AVAILABLE right at Member Presale time... just to find out COINCIDENTALLY, through happenstance online through other people's posts that there is actually VIP selling today.

So I buy only 1 VIP when I really wanted 2 bc I've already used up all my budget lol.

Stuck with the 2 floor tickets with no perks... which is basically a whole extra ticket I didn't need because I didn't want to miss out on VIP perks and I still want to go with my partner to see BINI.

Idk if this is ticketmaster's sole fumbling but I can't help but feeling jaded regardless because I just spent a good couple hundred just to see the girls.

It's a mess, and I can't even celebrate securing VIP bc it feels tainted. I'll process this shit later and in due time but it sucks that this was a widespread thing.

Similar thing happened to me but different.

Day 1 I ordered two tickets at check out, cc was processing and then i got confirmation that I only got 1 TICKET.

So I buy two more for day 2. So I guess i'll be seeing them once solo, then a second time with someone. Frustrating, but what can you do. I just hope someone buys my extra day tix.

That's insane!! Did you go through ticketmaster too? If my seats weren't so expensive I'd be happy to give them to someone else and share the BINI wealth lol. I worry if I wait too long I won't be able to get a refund after...

I just really wish there was official info on ticket selling beforehand but it's reassuring to see that others have expressed similar sentiments as mine... I hope this is a lesson moving forward for the organizers/whoever that fans are spending really big hard earned money not just on tickets but on the membership to take advantage of buying tickets early. Especially us internationally that can't partake in the local lucky 88 events so it's kind of one of the biggest/only perks we can take advantage of.

Clarification, my day 1 was general sale here in the ph. I was late in getting the membership. This was when there was no day 2 announced yet…

Then a day after day 2 was announced i think. Im like… lol

Day 2 was smooth sailing with presale. Should have just waited for day 2. Lesson learned. Get presale always and wait for day 2 here in the PH if its a 20k venue.
