I don't have a huge problem with paying that much, it will be amazing to see the Jamaicans in the 100m Final and amazing seeing Mo Farah win the 5000m (fingers crossed).

But for whatever reason I may change my mind. I have a ticket for the first day of athletics so I will get to experience the stadium and park etc. Will I think it's worth heading back there a week later though. If not I can always sell my ticket.

Get on there now and see what you can get mate, push the boat out if possible on cost.

I've tried. I can't get Any. Literally any. Just tried all sessions at all prices (apart from £450/£750).

Still plenty of time. It's only 22nd July. The last day of Olympic events is 12th August.

My Handball tickets have been submitted for resale.

If all else fails, the Paralympics will be ace.

Class A tickets for Athletics £30. £10 for Cat C if you want a cheap day in the park.

Do you know how long it took for your ticket to be put up for sale after you requested the resale?

The BBC Olympics reporter has just tweeted that LOCOG now have the last remaining Opening Ceremony tickets on sale.

The only tickets left are AA and A.

I don't think they are gonna get rid of those tickets, they are too expensive, they have been available for weeks now.

Just a few hours ago my cousin managed to get a few Athletics tickets for the session with the MENS 200m FINAL for a mere £50 each!

I don't knew when it was on the site, but it was a poor session on sat morning and was cat B ticket so overpriced. Also I was selling just one so someone must have wanted a single.

I requested resale on thursday afternoon late and sent the ticket off Friday. Just got email late today. No idea when it was listed, I was not searching. Sorry that all info I got.

I listed a table tennis ticket for resale on Friday morning and got a mail on Saturday evening to say that it had sold.

If you're still looking, there are £65 tickets available for athletics day session on Friday 3rd. Filter for 'athletics' on the site rather than any other combination (as they don't show up otherwise).

Edit: whilst toing this post, they've gone! Gotta be quick in this game eh?!

I've had to re-sell one of my tickets, but I haven't picked them up from the box office yet ( I chose that option rather than postage as I'm in Stratford a lot), I wonder if I still have to pick it up and re-send it or if they do that for me. I'm guessing the former.

Wait, I have them in my basket, they are not gone.

Do you think they will be delivered before the 3rd August if I got them?

When you go to pick them up they print them off there and then. So you shouldn't have to do anything.


Don't quote me on that though.
