Petition For Online Wrigley Poster Pre-Order

diamond_marmalade · February 2016

Signed. I may have got this wrong but was there not some shop set up for fan club members last time? Opened up a couple of days before the show and sold only to fan club members for a few hours. It think it was in a hotel in Chicago.

I possibly dreamt this!

ill sign this too...even tho im not attending the stadium shows...
pre-order for posters makes SOO much sense!
even sight unseen.
didnt they they let us do this before? was is 2010 tour? i forget...

droptheleash9 · February 2016

Signed!

SJD3232 · February 2016

Please do this, 10Club!

maverick · February 2016

This would be very very helpful

morgie2 · February 2016

This seems very fair.

The merch situation has gotten out of control...
Doing a poster pre-sale for 10 Club members would be a GREAT benefit!!

JS188455 · February 2016

Great idea! The Wrigley merch situation from a few years ago was terrible. There has to be a better way to go about this.

some may say i'm a dreamer but

I support this 100%. 2013 was horrible

droptheleash9 · February 2016

This makes so much sense. I'm also hoping for they do only 1 poster for each show. I think the multiple posters for the Wrigley and Global Citizen shows really exacerbated the merch situation.

1) I would love to see this happen. And I can guarantee if it were done this way they would sell more posters because I personally would have paid sight unseen for what turned out to be shitty Worcester 1

I'm sure a lot of us will pay sight unseen for both Fenway and Wrigley posters. Just another reason why the pre-sale would be good.
I'm in for sight unseen on Poster, Shirt, Sticker package deal to be sent out after the show, or just a poster.....I stood in line at Wrigley last time and got shut out of everything. Shirts were sold out in my size, posters all gone (Got one via ten club after), no stickers, banners, patches.....everything gone!

Anyway.....I'm in!

Not going to Wrigley this time around but after the joke of a setup they had last time I hope they do something different for everybody that is going.

I think you're right but it wasn't just for fan club members. For most of the shows they put a merch truck outside the venue (and the odd city they find a store to do pop up shop in). The problem is everyone can buy stuff, not just the people going to the show. The worst I've seen was Seattle 2013 where the merch truck was there a few days before the show, and every day the lineup seems like it had no end. I heard Wrigley was exponential worse than Seattle, Seattle was pretty bad.

I guess one or two trucks isn't enough to handle the lineups. People spend all day in the lineup, finally get to the front, and leave empty handed.

People want to order posters (and any other merch) online so they don't have to spend their whole day waiting in line to watch merch get sold out before they get there (and for people in GA it's awesome not having to carry around a poster for the whole show).

I experience the order posters online thing for Calgary in '09. Loved not having to carry around a poster for the whole show.

I have never been able to get a poster from any PJ show I have been to, I`ll sign.... Cincy in 2014 I actually saw them, but the line was too long and I had bud to smoke before the show.

jp307677 · February 2016

I don't even know why anyone would bother with this. They're obviously not going to do something like this, it's a waste of time.

Cathy14 · February 2016

Pre-orddering online would be nice. But honestly - just make enough of the stuff to make standing in line for 5 hours for a poster unnecessary.

I work in printing and know the cost differences between having 2,000 printed and 5,000 printed isn't that great. You can always throw extras out at the end of the night if they don't sell.

Or sell them on-line in the shop after the event is over!!

but never again... I want them to do it, but they only did it for the 09 tour and stopped. It does make me think they might of had a hard time implementing it...

tylermoore · March 2016

For a thing like Wrigley Field they totally should let us pre order merch..1 per person. Add an extra 5-10$ idc. It would beat standing in line for over an hr.

jjflash · March 2016

Agreed. This would be huge convenience.

If green-lighted then would need to be done for Fenway as well.

Would it only be available to those purchasing tickets via 10C? This would be a good way to minimize scalpers but would be again shutting out those 10C members who lost out on the lottery.

Let's make this happen 10C!!!

And even if you don't want to ship all the posters, at least give us some sort of online voucher that we can take up to a special 10 club window to redeem our merchandise. Please don't wait make us wait in line for 6 hours with all the rest of the flippers trying to just make a profit!

I'm in, especially this idea ^^^^^^

2 10c seats per membership - 2 poster vouchers... one for each ticket buddy...
10c would then just set up their own cue/booth at the show (much like 10c tickets at willcall) .... or have a mail in option set to arrive at your address after the show...therefore not spoiling the reveal at the live event

This way at least members who missed out on scoring tix for the shows via 10c lotto, and had to buy off ticketmaster or worse scalpers/stubhub could at least cash in on the benefit of merch without waiting 6 hours... It would be super nice to hang out and enjoy the city a bit before the show... and not spend the entire trip on line ups.

In Toronto - after being shut out for tickets in the lotto.. I waited for 6 hours both days in the merch line up, and with no limits set - I was unable to get items I waited to buy (ie/ buttons) because by the time I even got to the front - flippers had walked away with bags of stuff to sell online... super disappointing.
