Question for people attending Summerslam. Do you guys have your tickets yet? I bought mine through SeatGeek back in April but still haven't gotten my tickets. I contacted the seller and was told that tickets are released 48 hours before the event and then I'll get my tickets. I've never heard of that before and I've been to a bunch of shows in the past including Summerslam and Wrestlemania.

Delivery delays are extremely common nowadays. They can be anywhere from 5 days, to 72, 48, and even 24 hours. Almost every concert has one in place at most large venues now. I wouldn't worry at all.

Just read my post back and realized that I forgot to mention they are e-tickets. In the past I've always received e-tickets within minutes of my purchase. Even when buying through Stub Hub or other third party sites. This is also my first time using Seat Geek and it's actually FanXchange selling through Seat Geek, and from what I'm seeing now they don't have the best reviews. |

Those are the types of tickets that have the delays. Occasionally, they hold back traditional hard tickets, but very rarely, because there's so much that can go wrong with such a short window for delivery. Choosing to utilize a delivery delay is usually at the discretion of the venue, so it may just be the first time the Barclays is using it for WWE. The last couple of house shows I've been to here in Maine have had 24 hour delivery windows, those are rough. I manage a small ticket office and we deal with delivery delays constantly. As for SeatGeek/FanXchange, we're a wholesale partner of both companies and we've never had an issue with either. |

Most all of those sites have good, customer-first policies should anything go wrong. Delays have become so common that StubHub has actually had to modify their policies to allow people to continue to list their tickets. For as long as I can remember, StubHub dictated that hard tickets had to be shipped no later than 7 days prior to the event, and e-tickets were to be delivered no later than 5 days prior to the event. Anything closer than that, you needed to obtain special permission from StubHub and be part of their large seller program. Just in the last year, I've seen their number change from 5 days on e-tickets, to 3 days, to 2. The only delay that requires you to ask permission now is the pesky 24 windows. I use StubHub because they're the largest resale platform, of course, but other companies quickly followed. |

It's usually done with concerts nowadays as well to stop people scalping the tickets.

IIRC, Summerslam travel packages went on sale around April. The seller could have bought a travel package and is selling the tickets. I know a lot of people do that with the WM packages. If this were the case, they don't have their tickets yet, so they wouldn't be able to transfer them. Not saying this is the case, but it's a possibility.
