    it is easy to predict the sku, but as santos has said... :problem: :thumbdown:
    not a good option, coz it you are in there before the time they are on sale, on the sale page, wave goodbye to your tickets :roll:

    I would think you have to do more than just predict the sku to somehow get them earlier. I remember when that happened last year, and it seemed like there was more to it than that... I could be wrong though. However, this buyer did not get them before the sale time. If they don't want people skipping steps then make teh damn sku number random. I mean I know it's a novel idea, but it seems like it would work. :lol: I also don't see how skipping a step would bottleneck the system. It's still the same amount of traffice hitting the system all at once.

    It's more traffic if the face page is sending people back to the goods main page and they have to click through to tickets or cart again. :-)

    huh...wonder why so many people are having problems checking out....good thing folks aren't skipping steps to get to the checkout quicker, cause that would be REALLY REALLY BAD and cause a bottleneck at checkout. I'm sure I'll be talking to some folks soon about this.
    slh

    And yet people like me are still trying for MSG 2 3 hours later....wtf
    I am a fuckin loser

    Will
