Be prepared to wait a long time in line... Also the flippers are in full force from what I saw purchased yesterday and viewing a certain auction site this morning. I was in line yesterday at 825am and got in to purchase at 245p. I was about 140th in line and they had 4 people working the booth. Everything was available too. I will say I'm glad I now do not have to worry about buying anything further this weekend. Good luck to all!

    I'm glad you got what you wanted, but my god 4 hours? Aren't there some task rabbit people you can pay to wait in line for you while you explore the city (gives away evil strategy)?

    All vaild points. I live here and had the day off. I just expected it to move much faster, not having to wait 5 hours from open. However, I wanted to make sure I got what I wanted, at face price, for my own collection. I also will not have to worry about anything I wanted selling out, keeping my merch safe in GA Sat. or my seats Mon or the weather either day. I can go to both shows and know I can just enjoy the show. I hope everyone gets what they want. I wanted to ensure the same for myself. Then I wanted to let people know how it went in case they decide to wait in line before other jobs or appointments in their day. Again, good luck to all!

    I won't be waiting if it's like that. Will try my luck inside or maybe just not buy anything at all. Thanks for the heads up though.

    Recheck your math. OP waited close to 6 1/2 hours. That's about par for the course from what I read on this board yesterday. Either way, it's completely outrageous.

    Have you consulted Brett on this? So as to avoid "dropping a Lou"?

    Dude, wait for all the fanboys who over bought shit to sell it on Lost Dogs in a few weeks when they get home and their wives yell at them (again) for buying too much. You will have your pick of the fools gold!

    Just picked up my tickets, checked out the full merch corral, and kept on walking. Passed a guy who waited roughly 8a-2p.
