Tried before. Admin won't allow anu contact details to be posted. Will need to state a time and a place to meet.

One thing i will say to the OP is to be careful buying the A4 size paper tickets from anyone
These can be printed/photocopied over and over and I know of someone that got shafted last year buying them. When they went to go through the turnstiles the tickets wouldn't scan as the original ticket had already been used.

You are correct. That is exactly what I have. Bought them online as soon as available. Have printed them out from PDF but have since got another hill ticket which is my preference.

It looks now like my spares have gone anyway. However I would have suggested to go to the turnstile with those taking them. First person goes in and it scans , then they are good to go. Other than that it is based on trust which I would understand anyone's reluctance to follow. For sure, would never buy PDF /printed tickets from a tout. Passing personal contacts and agreeing how to hand them over is much safer than buying them blind from the streets.

Wasn't suggesting the OP shouldn't trust you. Meant if they were buying from a tout outside the grounds!

No bother, wasn't taking it that way at all. You made a good point and was adding a little advice of my own as more and more tickets are now just printed sheets of paper. Once scanned at turnstiles, they become obsolete. If I was buying them myself from someone I didn't know, would like some sort of security that they are not duplicates.

My spares are now gone, big demand out there. Hope the OP's people get looked after. Am sure more will be available if they head to Drumcondra early and ask around the boozers. If no luck, watch it on the big screen.
