I hope the Ten Club does the right thing and cancels the tickets that are being purchased through these "links" after the Goods section is supposed to be down. If not it's extremely disappointing and unfair to the tech "unsavy" and all other members who are playing fair. I don't mind sitting here for 24 hours refreshing until my f5 button feels sexually violated but just want an even playing field.

    You don't have to be "computer savvy" to click on a link present in numerous threads on this forum.

    I have the goods section bookmarked. I hit refresh after each step after adding them to my cart. That's not exactly tech savvy. Hitting refresh is a basic function of operating a computer.

    And how would this be fair to the people who spent hours refreshing those links to get their tickets?

    Equal playing field in buying tickets on the interwebs? That is quite funny. Has there ever been one?

    a page link is not 'tech savvy'.

    Well, the 10c did say that the online store is down so if you chose to waste hours trying to get tickets, thats your problem.

    I understand your frustration, but hey I woke up yesterday at 4 pm, went to work until 8 am this morning,
    spent hours on here, and got a charge on my CC, booked flights, took a one hour nap and called in for a sick day/night

    hang in there

    I don't think they can. They told people to keep refreshing. This is a travesty but taking tickets away from people who hit refresh to give them to people who listened to Tim is robbing Peter to pay Paul. Neither group is more deserving than the other.

    I spent my entire day refreshing. I can't take another day off of work tomorrow. If they cancel the tickets I FINALLY managed to secure, I am done with this fan club.

    im not going,but this is horseshit...some people getting tickets while some can't log on

    only fair thing to do is give everyone tickets or start fresh (which they won't do becasue as long as they sell out..thats all that matters)


    if anyone gets shutout ..that is fucked up

    and all that will be given is an "i'm sorry :?
    i post on the board of a band that doesn't exsist anymore .......i need my head examined.......

    As far as ten club is concerned the store is closed. They have every right to cancel tickets purchased after that time. Not saying they will but, I wouldn't be sitting pretty yet.

    If the Goods section is down it should be down. Cut and dried.

    Saying the store is closed and leaving the "BUY" link open is another story.

    Yeah somethings broken, meaning you got tickets when things were broke. They don't HAVE to honor the sale.
