Hope there's a second show announced, why wouldn't I want 8 Argos tickets? :laugh3:

yup, at 10am it should make the link available to the presale on that page. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE.

YUP. Just got it from the horse's mouth though...you were pretty much bang on.

I had to beg, but I've been told this is how it's gonna be: 1) the landing page will have a link for the presale to bring you to a page we've all seen before, the ticket page. 2) the argos vouchers and coldplay seats are bundled as one package, and you search for your coldplay seats as you would if they were on their own. the vouchers are a standard seat, you don't choose those so the only variable is the coldplay seats (again, all seat locations are up for grabs) 3) you then get to the order confirmation and the argos vouchers are just an add on, no passwords, no confusion (except up till now) That's it, the thing that worries me more than the argos piece is the service charges, they'll probably be just as high as the vouchers - hope not.

i was told that you won't be stuck with argo tickets if you don't get the coldplay tickets - don't know how they manage that. hope the server doesn't crash

Could happen, but a chance I'm not willing to take

I don't know the logistics about the sale (passwords or whatever), but it says "instantly" everywhere so I guess they hook it up right away.

Hey all, I know someone that works with the Argos, and after calling him I got the scoop. There is absolutely a presale tomorrow morning at the link that you all have seen: ticketmaster.ca/argos. You will be able to purchase either 2 or 4 Argonauts vouchers good for any game of the year (July-November) and in turn an equal number of Coldplay tickets. From what he has been clearly told by both Ticketmaster and the Rogers Centre, ALL tickets that would normally go on sale to the general public will be available at this presale (so basically the stuff that gets put aside for the band probably isn't included but i have no reason to believe the floors (both GA and assigned) are to be in there. He was a bit confused too that the ticketmaster page isn't listing this presale, however I suspect that this is going to get a truckload of traffic anyway, because it's going to be advertised pretty well in the morning. Any way you slice it, this has to be the best way to get in there and get the best seats. I don't know if the whole concert can sell out through this, maybe there is a limit, but I would guess that the best seats are all gonna go in this deal. It really isn't a bad deal, because the Argos voucher is their cheapest ticket price and you can use it for any game, they could have made people buy season tickets or something like that. I know I'm going that route.
