sorry I copied this when i posted it elsewhere by mistake.
I need help.

ok i don't like admitting this
but i ordered two tickets for elton john on ticketmaster in november and they still haven't arrived. I am getting worried.
My bank statement says they've had the money, is it normal to wait for ages, the concert isn't till june.
In my defence I bought the tickets for my boss and her hubby as an Xmas pressie for him (she is not net savvy and was desperate for tickets). I can prove to her that I paid cos of my bank statement (she has given me the dosh in cash) - so I can prove my honesty, but as the tickets haven't arrived I am thinking of her disaapointment.
This story is true I swear, I am not going to see Elton John. But my boss and hubby would like to, please help.
and BTW my boss is lovely not a dragon.

No need to worry just yet. Ticketmaster are notorious for sending out tickets really late and very close to the concert date. Despite them going on sale six months earlier my ticket for Springsteens' Old Trafford concert in May 2003 turned up four days before the show,plus they never got them all mailed out and loads of people had to collect them from the box office on the day of the gig,despite having paid postage charges.

On the other hand,and to be fair,ticket agencies obviously cannot send tickets out until they receive them from the event promotor. More than once I've had an email from Way Ahead/See apologising for the delay in mailing my tickets to me because they still haven't received them themselves. I know also that some promotors now are not releasing tickets until really late in order to reduce the window of opportunity for touts to deal in them.
