SUMMIT NEWS FLASH - It's Ticket Buying Time












Vicky, also known as Habschick on Habs Inside Out, will be e-mailing all those persons who have requested tickets prior to last weeks deadline of July 31. Shortly, Vicky will be sending out an invoice to everyone for one $68 ticket or $136 for two tickets. Follow the Pay Pal instructions in the e-mail and you will receive a receipt immediately upon payment.

Ian has just paid for his pair of tickets and the process worked well.

Once we have secured our 56 requested tickets and paid for them, we will be inquiring about additional (read single) tickets around the building for people that want more than 2 tickets.

Please make sure you that you have paid for your tickets before noon on Wednesday, August 13, after which time they will be sold to someone else.

For information on purchasing tickets outside of the Fans Summit group, visit the Montreal Canadiens site link here, for information on how to proceed.

In total, there were 87 tickets requested by 40 posters. The demand exceeded our wildest expectations!

While we absolutely would have been happy to undertake these many purchases, the Bell Centre ticket office has informed us that the maximum group purchase is 56 tickets.

In order to supply every fan that requested tickets, we are proceeding in this manner:

Those people who ordered a single ticket will get 1 ticket and those people who requested more than 1 will get 2 ordered from the block of 56.

Any additional will be ordered after August 17, and they will be single tickets scattered in various area of the Bell Centre. As of yet, we have no price on any additional tickets, and we will be receiving information on such once and only once the initial 56 ticket transaction is completed and paid in full.

Everyone will need to have set up a pay pal account online to pay by credit card for these tickets.
Here's how:

Go to http://www.paypal.ca/ and sign up.

When you receive the e-mail from Vicky, it will include a PayPal number for you to forward your payment. You will then proceed to the PayPal account you have set up in your name, and make the payment. Be sure to write down or save all pertinant information as to transaction numbers. PayPal, for those unfamiliar with it, is the most widely accepted and trusted form of internet payment worldwide.

Ian has pulled every string in his bathing suit in attempts to satisfy the overwhelming ticket demand. If you have ordered more than two tickets, hang in there, we will do what is possible to help you out further.

Continue to watch this site closely over the coming days for updates and information. Should we be able to add tickets to our request, it is quite possible that the window for their PayPal purchase will be very brief. Be prepared in that event to act quickly!

If you further inquiries and concerns, click the grenade icon on the sidebar and we'll do our best to respond quickly.

At the Habs Inside Out site, look for Ian, Habschick, Conecticut Man1, Robert L, SmartDog, and Chuck. The six of us are on constant e-mail alert for fast breaking news and changes, if you require any further clarifications.

That's about all for now.

CHeers!
