Idea for 10C for Next Poster Pre-Order

edited July 2009 in The Porch
I don't know if other people have thought of anything like this, but what if the Ten Club were to allow us to give away the rights to do a poster pre-order? For example, this tour we were given the rights to up to two poster pre-orders per show we have 10C poster to. What if they put a text field in where we put in someone's 10C number, and present us with two options:
1) Press 'Buy this member this poster', and then the Ten Club would make it clear that it's up to the buyer to deal with getting the money from the other Ten Club member.
2) Press 'Give rights to this poster', and then that person's account is now allowed to buy one poster.
What an easy way for us to share the love, and help those who got shut out and honestly, probably deserve the poster... Anyone else like this? I fear it'd probably be way too hard to implement though.

    too much work for 10C and too much potential for "selling" those rights.

    seems as though the easiest thing for all those involved would be for people to either post a request for someone to purchase a poster on their behalf and/or for people to post an offer for their extra for someone to purchase off them,...
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    Yeah, good point. Oh well. Certain ideas seem good in certain states of mind, but then you realize you don't know what the hell you were thinking. :lol:

  • but it's still dissecting the random order of things.
    it tries to build not destruct.
    Santies Lil Halper didn't come up with this on his own terms.
    we hawlped.
    now if we could just create new server-magnets.
    WOOT!

    Here's an idea: Make it available to all 10c members, whether they got tix to the show or not. There are alot of people that tried like hell to get tix, but were denied, now they will be denied of this too? Where's the k-y???

    Can you explain the simple logic behind this idea? I don't really see a benefit to this ...

    Why is no matter what they do it isn't enough?

    I personally think this is a great move. People who don't have 10c tix will still have a chance to get a poster the old fashioned way. People who aren't going to the show at all wouldn't have gotten one regardless and will still have a chance to get one through the 10c sale later.

    Seriously, someone is always going to want more around here.
