Any particular reason why these are not selling out straight away?  My 1st live event was Dublin and have bought into Bolton and Luton without any problems but the general opinion was that they would all sell out in a matter of minutes (as per previous years).  So what"s changed?

Not complaining of course just interested!

We sold two events in a week (a first) both taking place just before Christmas...I would say that"s largely the answer.  We also did not send an email to the database for either or promote them on external forums.  Bolton sold out very quickly of course and we have very few seats for Luton left.  As this is effectively the last event of the season to buy into, I think it"s good that we might see a few players coming to the site for the first time and actually finding they can buy a seat to an event.

Yes the 2 buy-ins in a week was a dent in the BR!  

I understand and probably the "credit crunch" has not helped matters either.  Definately not a bad thing and like you said it"s good that everyone who wants to pay should be able to too.

As I said, not a critisim just wandered what had changed.

 i havent brought in for luton because 2 buyins in a week is two hard for me. Im banking on cashing in Bolton then getting on the seat exchange. Im probably not the only one thinking this.
