From what I've witnessed people deciding which size shirt to buy is what slows everything down. A poster only line or non wearable line would really speed things up for a lot of us.
Yep. If you thought that a particular shirt is ugly, then holding it closer, touching it, and even trying it on doesn't really make it look much better... Unless you're a supermodel, than anything looks good...

Merch line for Greenville starts at 1. Considering the show has been sold out for a while and it's a weekend show, what time should I get in line??? I definitely want to get a poster and a few stickers.

This and staffing the mercy truck/tent with more than 2 or 3 people would help.
If you're spending over $30 to buy a t-shirt I don't mind having to wait a minute if someone wants to make sure it's the right size, I would do the same. A lot of variables in shirt style/fabric that can change someone's mind unless they were at a previous show on the tour already and know how they run. It just comes with the territory, and at the end of the day it's just some concert merch. Hope everyone finds the stuff they're looking for, I'm just looking forward to the Philly/MSG/Fenway shows, if I get a t-shirt or hat I want, that's cool too.

Or stocking enough stuff that people don't feel like they have to get in line hours before the show -- things selling inside the arena would be cool. More spots to sell, more people selling....

Do the merch tables accept credit cards? Or is it cash only? Does anyone have nay feedback o the first two shows and if posters/shirts were sold out at all? I know the more exotic items went quickly, like the sandals, but posters are what I hope are well stocked for every show.
the merch tables in Miami took credit cards. i went to venue at 1pm to get merch...line too long so i went back about a half hour before doors and was able to get poster and stickers, but there wasn't a very big stack.
I have never understood the waiting in line all day for the merch trailer, isn't everything that is for sale at the trailer also for sale inside the venue? Just go in at 6:30 when doors open and get whatever you want, sure you have to hold onto it all night but beats wasting the whole day in a merch line
