Fast way to get tickets

Used it to get ahead of the long line to see St Stephens church. I don't understand why people still stand in line at a ticket office when you can book online in 2 minutes. The Church was super interesting and I recommend to get in line, only regret that I didn't book the tower, but had no time to go up. Next time
