10c ticket question - Am I out of luck?

edited April 2008 in The Porch
I just found out I have a wedding to go to on Friday June 20th, and will not be able to use my 10c tickets for the Camden II. I see that it says all sales final and that there are no transfers or refunds allowed.

Has anyone ever run into this situation, and if so, is there anyway to remedy it, or am I out $150?

    Well, first email the 10c and see what they tell you. From what I understand they are often pretty understanding about these types of situations.

    If they're not understanding, you can generally pick 10c tickets as early as noon on the day of the show, so if you have time, you could arrange to meet someone at 12 at the venue, and sell the tickets to them (for face) right there, and go to the wedding.

    Sorry you have to miss this show, but good luck figuring this out.

    Thanks, I'll send them an email. Not sure if I am going to be able to get down there the day of the show, but that may be an option.

    If you can get down there, it should definitely work. I had 10c tickets to E Rutherford in 06, but found out later I couldn't make the show, and that's how I got rid of them.

    I have been trying desperately to score good seats to the Camden show (or MSG). After calling 10C, let me know what happens. I will do anything I can to help you out and maybe get the tickets. I am not a 10C member (don't ask), but am a huge PJ head.

    Thanks!

    Email or call 10c....I think they'll be understanding of the issue. Ask them if you could transfer the tix to another 10c member. Good Luck!

    exactly.

    i know they always say 'no transfers'...and sure, try to abide that b/c it IS more work for them, etc. however, i know in the past they HAVE done so for many with such extenuating circumstances, and certainly, a wedding is one of em....and laso easy enough to buy tix and THEN get an invitation. definitely email 10c, i would think they could help you out and merely transfer the tix to another 10c member, no need to go and pick em up.


    that said nice! another june 20th wedding. :) we'll be celebrating our 16th anniversary that day. :D
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    i never understood the whole "no transfer" thing..

    I am sure there is a good reason for it... maybe a membership thing?

    exactly...if transfer were allowed easily, I could have bought all my tickets in my low-5-digits friend's name whose not going to any shows this year and then transfer them to my name :D

    but they have done so in the past when they could tell it was genuine.
    From what I heard, last year though, they did refunds and resells (that's why Wembley for example kept on popping back in stock randomly) rather than transfers.

    Don't know what they'll do this year but it's stupid to have empty seats when some people are looking for tickets..

    I was able to transfer my europe tickets last time...I know the EV tickets were completely non-transferable though...

    How do transfers work? Do they transfer the tickets and the credit card charge, or just the tickets? How do you ask them, like do you need to have someone else's info in the email request?

    They change the name on the tickets, but you are responsible for getting your money from whoever you're transferring your tickets to. You have to give the 10C the other member's 10C number and maybe address (I don't remember...)

    Looks like you'll have to skip the wedding! I'd skip one any day to see Pearl Jam. And my friends and family would totally understand. :)

    Yeah, looks like someone will have two empty seats next to them. If only I would have gotten the wedding invite a little earlier.

    Ha. I would consider that, but I am going to the Camden show the night before, as well as the D.C. show, so I can skip one show to have some fun with family and friends.

    I hope you're talking about two empty seats at the wedding.....

    I wasted a big trip this summer to go to my best friend's wedding... 6 months later and she's "over" it and is getting divorced.
    Go to Pearl jam!
