Ashes Day 2 old trafford, third test

probably not ticket listers fault, but the person selling through them. I bought 3 tickets in feb 2013 for the ashes game in aug 2013.
I have been to various shows and events before, so did not panic when the week before no tickets had arrived, I did send an email to ensure they were coming 2wks before the game. After several emails I was told they were being delivered on tuesday by 1pm- after taking time off to receive tickets none arrived, several more desperate emails later, still no tickets, day before get a phone call from ticket lister saying the tickets will be sent tomorrow 9am, day of the game- I live in Somerset a 4hr drive away so would miss half the game! or I could take a chance, drive all that way, and meet some guy that may or may not be there at the stadium. it all sounds totally ridiculous to me! they had 6months to send the tickets- why would you wait until the day before.I was even told a story that the seller left the tickets with a friend to post who had let them down! only 1 person has been let down here! I couldnt take the chance. I had to cancel hotel & hire car at cost to myself and pay £76.50 admin to ticket lister. I will not use ticket lister again and suggest you do not unless you are sure of the sellers!
