Anyone buy a ticket for cash at the venue box office?, i got one from ebay and it was bought for cash but its slightly different than the ones bought by visa, ie theres no MCR logo in the right corner but does have a manchester evening news arena instead? :? :?

  • All the ones i've seen have MCR on them. Might be worth giving them a call to check.

    Ours for both nights off of Ticketmaster have the MCR logo on them.

    All the tickets ive seen have the MCR yellow logo on them but were all payed for by visa,and was probibly sent out by post a while later but the ticket i have was bought with cash and was picked up at the box office same day as the TM sale, i think i remember it said you could buy tickets from the box office??

    No doubt you could buy a ticket from the Box Office but why would it be different I don't know.

    The type of card used to pay has no impact, mine were paid for by Mastercard and have the yellow MCR. It's possible they have different ticket paper stocks and used different ones depending on what they had? As said before, call the venue is probably the best option.

    Box office tix would defo have the venue logo on... It's their own ticket... No harm in giving them a call, explaining what yours are like and asking if it's legit though.

    But you see it isn't The Manchester Evening News Arena anymore. Those rights ended sometime late last year that's the thing.

    Maybe it is Because Tickets went onsale in 2011 And the Name still was M.E.N. Arena And Tickets purchased via Internet were printed And shipped later And so the local tickets from Box Office are without MCR Arena Print but with M.E.N. Print...

    Could be,im not sure if to contact MEN box office or not because on reading the small print it states tickets can not be sold on to a third party for a profit when they were,they my cancel the ticket. :?

    If your Germany tickets have the MCR yellow logo on them aswell surely thats nothing to do with MEN?

    That's the most likely outcome. The ticket looks genuine enough.
