Most companies who rely on the postal service to deliver their items tend to put whatever orders are ready out for collection on a daily basis. If I order tickets for a show or concert that is a few weeks away I usually receive my tickets within a couple of days of ordering them. I've never understood why The Albion leave everything to the last minute. It is the same every year. Possible legitimate excuse is that the smart cards have to be manufactured and they probably wait to make them all at once but parking is another matter-they clearly send them out separately to ST so why wait to get them out? They don't seem to procrastinate when it comes to our direct debit payments :rolleyes:.

They don't (or never used to) have their own postage account so it they would the Mailing Houses account instead. Obviously the larger the quantity posted at any one time would secure the largest discount so there fore they will all be posted as a batch.
Unless things have changed and it's all done in house. Although I doubt it.

This is very awkward for me. Live in Devon but find it more convenient to leave my home address as my mums in Peacehaven. I'm travelling direct to the game Saturday from here. With it not having arrived yet she hasn't been able to post it on.

CHANGE YOUR ADDRESS I hear you shout.

I can't. When i did change it, i came up to sussex a few days early for a couple of london away games only for my tickets to be delivered to devon the day before the game. :ffsparr:

Arrange with someone who lives in Peacehaven or nearby to pick it up from your Mum and meet you at the Amex? There are a few from that locale on Nsc.

Still awaiting my new card. Postie hasn't been today yet, but judging from above, I doubt I will get anything.

Seeing as most people probably switched seats late May/June time, why have the club left it until the last minute to send out new cards? I await their reason/excuse with interest? Seeing as I have to work this Saturday morning and probably won't make it until 2.30ish, I will be seriously pissed off if I have to wait ages in a queue for a paper ticket. :rant:

It's just rather awkward though, but it is what i will have to do. My friend gets to the ground about 2.45pm, i'll be there about 1.30pm, can i get into dicks without it!?
