[Albion] Ticket Exchange

I assume the ticket exchange must be open for the Villa game but I was surprised how few tickets are available, no pairs anywhere and no more than 10 singles in any block.

Honest question then, do people bother putting their tickets on the exchange if they can't go, or is it more hassle than its worth? Last time I used it was for the boxing day game last year, but that's obviously a fixture many people can't make. I was quite pleased with myself waiting for the exchange then to nab front row west stand upper seats, rather than taking the south stand seats available, but I've been caught out trying the same thing this time. Shame as I was hoping to go but looks like this really will be a sellout.

Have put our tickets in North Stand on the exchange several times and it is very easy, other than the slight ball ache that you have to repeat the process for each seat. But the process is easy certainly.

I was trying, last week, to buy tickets for a friend and their kid for the Villa match but there were only Exchange tickets available. I know this as Exchange tickets will only be sold at full price and I couldn't find any seats that weren't and my friend didn't fancy paying full whack for a 9 year old (can't blame him myself, January can be a lean month!).

I've just selected four tickets at random from those on sale, and all allowed me to select U-18 which reduced the price of the seat considerably.

Scratch that...

The East Stand ones did stay at U-18 price.

The West Stand ones looked like they were allowing it, but there was a warning message stating they were full price only.

Those were my seats weren't they?

Looking at the seats available for sale right now, I don't think the sale-side of the Exchange has opened yet.

Edit: and if it has,. just wait until next week when people focus on the upcoming game. There WILL be plenty of pairs in due course.

WSL is full (ie adult only) price irrespective of when, or which format through which, you buy them.
