You're right, they're not available anymore
I don't know what to say...I'd buy the best seated tickets I can right now, and then I'll keep looking for standing tickets, but I understand that, when you have to pay x2, it gets more expensive.

Seated tickets can always be sold on the forum's ticket exchange if no longer needed though. There are always going to be people who don't want to give touts the money.

I do. I want to win an auction and tell the tout, 'thanks for being a great seller, sorry that eBay and Paypal will be taking most of the £5 that I won the pair of tickets for' in my feedback.

On Ticketmaster, it says that tickets will arrive 48 hours before the event. But I'll be already in London! What can I do? Am I able to print them?

48 hours is the latest they will possibly arrive to you. I have never had tickets received any later than 3 weeks before. You can choose to pick them up at the box office at the venue if you're worried.

it's not like you're going to receive your tickets 2 days before the event. it's just a thing they say, don't worry.
and no, looks like the print-at-home option is not available.

Ok, they don't accept my credit card. Maybe because it's a prepaid one.

I always use my Postepay and it always works fine. Maybe you could check the details and try again?

Maybe it's empty

I'm going to put some money into it. Anyway, there's a strange fact: why the avaible seated tickets are the same since this morning? Maybe it's not an actual sold-out...
I hope

Anyone called the arena's box office to see if It's an actual sell out? Could be web traffic etc maybe? Clutching at straws, just looking out for you all

Can anyone tell me if its a problem to sell spare tickets on the ticket exchange on here that i ordered off seetickets? Ended up with 2 extra seated tickets but don't want to be selling them, then the buyer gets refused entry. I'd be willing to meet up with buyer at the venue in case ID/ccard is required for entry. I assume it wont be a problem, but i dunno because i've never used seetickets before. Help?

I haven't bought from seetickets personally for quite a while, but I don't remember them ever having names printed on the tickets so I assume it would be fine to sell them on here.
