Promoters said demand had been “extremely high”.
However, they urged punters not to buy from touts after missing out on tickets.
The warning came after a brief for his event at Glasgow’s SEC Armadillo next June appeared on a website priced at a whopping £360.
The ‘Centre Stage’ tour will see the tennis icon, 37, sharing secrets from his illustrious career with telly presenter Andrew Cotter, 51, a fellow Scot.
But Muzza’s army of supporters told on social media of their disappointment at missing out on a chance to see the pair.
It came after a general sale opened at 10am following a pre-sale.
Andy — you’re more popular than Oasis! Hope other dates will be added
A let-down fan
One let-down fan said: “Tickets were unavailable at 10.01am.
“I hope Andy realises how popular he is and considers more venues.”
Another hit out: “Frustrated to say the least. Releasing so few tickets is a massive waste of people’s time.
“I made the point of getting time off work to make sure I got tickets, and there were fewer than 100 available! Hugely disappointing.”
A third added: “Andy — you’re more popular than Oasis! Hope other dates will be added.”
ATG Tickets said: “Tickets can’t be sold for profit.
“Please don’t purchase from a secondary website.”
Sir Andy will be in Glasgow on June 18 and Edinburgh Playhouse the next night before two shows in London.

“I don’t think a tennis player has done anything like this before so it felt like a great challenge for me.
