I didn't get a code from mk.com because I didn't get ANYTHING from them (yet)!!!  :o  >:(
I suppose I will tomorrow, as I've been away for the last 2 weeks... nice! I'll get a code!  ;D
Maybe I can use it for the Swiss show...  :lol

The regular version that I bought in a local store didn't come with a code, indeed

No code was sent between 31st of august and 4th of spetember by mail. So long before delivery

I have received an order confirmation mail of course. Still got it. No code in there.  ???  >:(

Mrs twm is not happy with the RAH seats. For the three shows, they vary from Row 7 to Row 19. The odd thing is that the Row 19 seats were the tickets she secured first, before she bought tickets for the other nights when the seats are closer.

As she is a Hamlet scholar, perhaps the notion that something is rotten in the state of Denmark (or, in this case, the state of "mk.com") has entered her mind.

RAH 27th May - Arena F Row 3   27 & 28

RAH 28th May - Arena F Row 2   25 & 26

Hi superval-
We are in row 3 both nights, in the high teens and seat twenty so we will share the row on the first night!  Very exciting. 

I'm happy with our assignments; I didn't have any code.  It's small consolation considering I don't yet have the album.  I preordered from MK.com and have an assurance I will get it.  Waiting patiently..... :)

I'll be honest : I have similar thoughts.
I guess they plan to give us the best bests for the swiss shows.  >:( 
Actually, the only times I got great seats from mk.com were for Montreux and Zurich. I didn't order faster nor slower, but maybe as a local I was entitled to get something better.

Those MK.com presales have always been a mistery and a major disapointment to me. 
Probably the tip is to order more than one ticket, if possible from a friendly country.
At some point it's really not worth it : the seats are not good enough if you consider you can not transfer them.  ???

Yes, the same happened to me! And now I hear that "some countries residents" have received promo codes and some other's not (by ordering from the same shop, that is!) I don't need to ask any more...

I don't think so. I guess there will be no Swiss show, therefore Swiss residents did not need to get codes.

Of course there will be no swiss show.
And if ever there is, what does it mean  ? 
We're not good enough to get the dates on september ?
You know what? I'm gonna play with PCM. Roland Dent style

I don't know Roland Dent and I don't think it's worth nor adviceable to play whatever game...
I prefer to not playing their game by not playing at all.

To have said that:
I am truly very happy for all my fellow fans who have done it right and got great seats!
But I know that the way it was organized there was again a lot of space for scalpers to get the best seats in the house.

I was 1st minute of Cologne and row 7, but had no code, so I suppose that's the reason

I don't think "code" or "no code" is the reason. I have ordered Berlin and Frakfurt with promition code from amazon.de at the same time exactly at sale start at 10.00 and recived confirmation mail from mk.com at 10.03.

Berlin row 1 and Frankfurt row 5 - I can't belive that rows 1-4  in Frankfurt were sold in 1 min.  A few of amiter got 1. row in FRF, and I doubt that I was slower or  whatever..
It seems to me as a kind of lottery  :-\

Oh, you don't know him ... He knows everything on everything ...  ::)
I must admit I have an unusual logic and sometimes useless things are a big source of motivation.
Let's say I need to put the diesel in the tank.

Fully agree.  ;D
