^ i dont know what i mean because the japanese system is so difficult for me lol. I meant... I want to buy tickets for her show but until now only those who are TA members could do it. Now I can? from which sites? Also, could you recommend good reseller ticket shops in Japan? thank you so so much

[polka-dot-jewel]

^ Yokohama Tickets is one of the major reseller shops in Japan. I've personally used the locations in Ueno and Shibuya, though there are locations in Shinjuku and Ikebukuro.

I've bought from Yahoo Auctions Japan, but those prices are very very expensive. But at least it guarantees you a ticket before going to Japan. I'm not sure of other websites to get it from.

Thank you, there are some other tickets i want to try and get from the reseller shops once I am there. Are the prices over there usually super expensive?

General sales for Apr-May starts on 17 March, and 12 May for June-July.
If you have friends in Japan they could try getting them at convenience stores for you by then?

I've booked my flights! Can I pick up tickets a few hours before the show?

iirc ticket pickup for global TA starts 1-2 hours before the doors open

Go in early to get your goods and tickets at the same time, I'd suggest. Last shows I went to that was 2 or 3 hours before the actual concert - just don't forget your passport!

Oh okay! And it’s not possible to get them online?

I'm not sure which channels they will release the tickets to. But generally speaking of services like PIA or Lawson Ticketing, you need a Japan address and phone number, plus I'm unsure if they take non-Japan issued cards.
Even if you could delay the payment by choosing paying at a convenience store, it would be the same as you walking into the store and getting the ticket at the multi-purpose machine.

If you mean buying tickets of someone else, then I recommend you do so through trusted agent sites. There's always fake tickets floating around.

What is a reasonable price for tickets gotten from the lottery? I simply want to get some money back, don’t want the tickets to go to waste.
I got a ticket for May 12, one for May 13 and one for May 19.

You mean you are selling it at the venue after picking up in person?
I recommend you make sure not to get any amount above the ticket price including ticketing fee, just in case it's a police undercover
not even small change.

Can you not sell at the venue? I was wondering if they would have police.

There are people with huge signs saying they are selling tickets all around the venues...

I don’t care about the fees. I would only be charging the ticket price. I believe you can sell it prior to the show and let TA know that someone else is picking it up.

Does anyone know how early they start selling merch before the concert?
