homerj Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I thought warnings would be put up if someone was selling out - just been to buy a Peter Capaldi Diamond and they've all gone?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrong Name Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 SM have always said they will TRY to put up warnings when they can. Sometimes there can be a rush in people buying things that can result in them selling out before SM get a chance. It could also be possible that SM just need to add more into the shop so they have not actually sold out. It is the weekend, so they would not be adding them back in straight away. Try looking early next week to see if more or added, or there should be something put up on here to say it is actually sold out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravogd Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 This is common at this time as we get nearer and nearer to showtime. It’s less than 2 weeks away now and it’s past the last pay day before the show, people who have been swithering over whether or not to buy things will bite the bullet so things that have been selling slowly will begin to sell out fast. I’d advise getting your purchases done as soon as possible now to avoid disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris1970 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Yes, DP’s and Photo Op’s will go quicker now, and dont forget entry ticket(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Yes, the keyword is "try". If anything happens like a sudden spike on the weekend there usually won't be a warning because the office people have the time off and the mods have no access to the store. Peter is showing sold out, so unless there's anything that can be fixed Monday like a payment not going through the tickets are sold out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebster118 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 There have been cases where Diamond Passes and Photoshoots were marked “Sold out” but not the case a number of days later. I have bought Diamond Passes for those I REALLY want to meet but holding out on photoshoots until the schedule is up in case of potential clashes, especially on the Sunday.

Queen_Sindel Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Photoshoots can go back online because of Upgrades to Diamond Passes. It is very rare that extra Diamond Passes are added, especially that close to the show. I will try to find out tomorrow morning if anything else is close to selling out. Hoperfully no more surprises til then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know it was possible to upgrade, what's the method to do it? Edited July 15, 2018 by Kuato_Lives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @Kuato_Lives I’m pretty sure you email Showmasters and ask them if you can upgrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safe way: Email the showmasters shop and ask if you can, they should email back and tell you to buy the Diamond then email them back with the order numbers for your diamond and original photo and they will refund the photo (they need to see both to prove you have bought the diamond) Slightly risky way but should be ok: Buy the Diamond and email that order number along with the number for the original photo and ask for the photo to be refunded. I say slightly risky just incase they aren't allowing upgrades any more but it should be fine. I upgraded my entry this way and they refunded me no problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R4wly97 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I put a post on Peter’s thread last night as soon as his diamond passes had sold out and I double checked on Eventbrite to confirm this so anyone who went on his thread would know but unfortunately that’s the best I could do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing happened with entry this weekend. SM have been posting saying Saturday was running low and may sell out and people were still shocked on facebook when it came up sold out.

Queen_Sindel Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Peter did have a small number of Diamond Passes released again this morning. These are definitely the last ones. I don't know how many in total, but I was told to let everyone know it's the last Chance and to pick them up quickly if you still want one. I will update on other guests when I hear back. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuato_Lives Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Thanks to all who helped with the upgrade and refund info. All done in less than 24 hours, good customer service by Showmasters there, I'm impressed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I'll pin this one seeing it already has some important info. Peter Capaldi Diamond Passes are in extremely short supply, as already posted in a number of threads. No further warning for Diamond Passes at the moment. I will update with photoshoot warnings once I receive them. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homerj Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 Thanks all. i managed to purchase a Peter Capaldi Diamond Pass last night. Thanks Queen Sindel. However, to the person who said that messages of short supply had been placed on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. I am not on any type of social media at all so wouldn't have seen the messages.

MrsCorleone Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Does anybody know the difference between "sold out" and "unavailable". Wanted to buy a Tardis shooting with Matt and it says "unavailable". Never saw that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanted to buy a Tardis shooting with Matt and it says "unavailable". Never saw that before. It became available again briefly but there was only one ticket left so I'm pretty sure it's when the last ticket is in someone's basket but they haven't bought it yet, therefore it's unavailable until they either buy it and it's sold out, or they don't in which case it goes back to available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
