    But they waited in a line for a whole whopping hour? They should have been able to buy the stand if they wanted to.

    Yeah, buy the whole stand, move it 5 feet and start flipping all the merchandise with the appropriate 500% ebay markup

    I wish every item had a 1 per customer limit.

    I don't get it. If an item sells out, why not sell that item here on the PJ Ten Club store at a reasonable price? That way people who missed out could get the item reasonably priced and instead of the ridiculously jacked up prices on eBay.

    I would love to watch that.

    I think Paul-jam is on to something. 12 shows on the tour = 15 ticket limit. I think the issue is enforcement. Venue employees would have to be briefed on the nuances of pearl jam merch subculture and frankly I don't think they give two shits.

    I'm going to guess that if they did that, half the people (or more) would lose interest and not buy it. The one of a kind rarity, collector factor seems to be what many people are chasing.

    How can a sticker get elevated to a one of a kind rarity? (not saying you are doing that)
    If every fan in attendance at any show was given an option to buy a sticker I don't see how if you were not in attendance the sticker from that show other than the artwork/design would make said sticker rare.
    I still think that an option to buy a sticker should be given to you when you make your original ticket purchase.

    I say no limit to how many stickers one can buy. If I can only buy 10 stickers, then how can I do this again?
