    We're sorry, but the tickets you want are currently SOLD OUT.
    Extra tickets may be made available but, as always, these will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis.

    Tickets to Pearl Jam at O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire...

    A further HMV exclusive allocation of tickets will be made available from Thursday 23rd July at 9am. These tickets will be available only to customers who have received an email invitation to purchase tickets for this further ticket release. These tickets will be of a limited number only and will be allocated to customers on a strictly first-come-first-served basis. "

    It's not quite clear if a second email with a link from HMV will be sent out though.
    I think it is Jenny... see in red - I read is as a new e-mail will be sent for the second release... which suggests that not all those who purchased will get a link.. maybe only those who were not successful.

    Maybe they have been sending e-mails out with a different link therefore the 'old' one is not relevant anymore.

    I have just re checked my original link and it only says:

    Not Available
    We're sorry, but the tickets you want are currently SOLD OUT. Extra tickets may be made available but, as always, these will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis.




    On the day of the sale i got as far as having the tickets in the basket but was unable to checkout, i haven't recieved any 2nd link.

    I also e-mailed a complaint to HMV yesterday morning at about 9.30am and recieved an automated response saying that they would reply in 48hrs (or i could call the customer service line which i had tried at 8.30am and got a recorded message saying they were too busyto take the call try again later).

    I have still not had a response to my e-mail.

    Tomorrow is the general sale, i dont believe that we will get any preferential teatment over and above any other HMV customer at this late stage in the game, after all HMV just want to sell the tickets do they really care who its to?
  • I haven't got a second link either and loads of us have discovered the new msg (about the new allocation of tickets) has now disappeared from our links...and those two tickets are still in my basket taunting me!

    No link. If there is one, I bet it's gone to the scalpers. Fucking shit.

  • Had no emails from HMV apart from the one they sent me initially on Monday night

    How do we know this second email things is even happening anyway?!

    Assuming I don't hear from HMV I guess I'll just try my link again tomorrow morning and see what happens.

    no second link for me either, but my original one still gives the 'new' message about the new allocation of tickets as mentioned above... or it did as of 5 mins ago...
