A few Oak 1 100 level pairs across from the stage have popped up in the last hour. Nothing too great, but better than behind the stage. 111 row 26 on there now.
OK, Ive been bombed with emails - here is the trick... Just get ANY CV code in your CC will be declined, then go back in fix it ... once it declines the order is yours... .It worked first for PHX where i got lower, then i did OAK one and got GA!!!!!!! worked twice!
Can you rephrase? I’m not following.
It may be quicker to type the wrong code and hit "buy," because at that point the system lets you fix the error and won't let someone else buy. I'm skeptical that (a) it works, (b) it's actually quicker to type the wrong code than to get it right the first time
Well Just got two sets in 10 min, including GA... If not its a stunning coincidence ... Just trying to help
Can't hurt to try! Literally, nothing else has worked so far...

How long did it take you to fix it? It's certainly possible that no one else was F5ing at that moment.

This is what I get for not having auto refresh at work and going it for manual bursts of refreshing once in a while.

2 -3 min to fix... kept declining my stored card and had to add another one. .. card is fine, seems it locked in on the wrong CV as the second order for GA was on my stored card. but also declined the first attempt

this is an interesting theory. The assumption is that the decline comes back from the CC company quicker than the approval. The second part of the theory is that TM links the tix to the person based on the decline. I can believe the first part, but the 2nd part is what has me skeptical. Happy it worked for you, but not sure I want to test it out considering how sparse the B'more tix have been lately. But the other side of that argument is that using the right CV hasn't gotten me tickets yet, so maybe this is a "F it, why not" moment

I was thinking about more, and the Decline, it means my order is IN, i was the first to get to the processing of the order. the system will not process multiple CCs at the same time. It would be first to hit submit will all the fields filled in. Now if you miss a field it will not accept and start to process the order. But onces it sends an approval request to your CC its yours@
Welp, this has been fun. Not. Im signing off for about 10 days to go on a cruise to the Southern Caribbean. I wont be refreshing from the ship due to shitty expensive wifi. I wish you all well and hope we meet up in Balt. I'll be back with a vengeance soon enough... Ill still be looking for a pair to replace my nosebleed single, up until the day of the show if need be.

Interesting. I'm guessing it won't accept a single digit - it prob needs three digits (or 4 for Amex)
my 3 digits auto-populate - no typing (Visa). on app i have to enter

This works, It happened by accident on my first pair of tickets and I thought I was fortunate enough to mess up and still get them but this explains it now

There might be something to this. When I nabbed Baltimore tickets on Sunday, I initially got the "Oops..." red text when I tried to pay. I thought it was the same error that had plagued me earlier in the week of "something's gone wrong and we can't process your order", but it was actually that Chase had declined the transaction and flagged it as fraud. At the sand moment, I got a text from Chase security asking me to confirm the transaction. I texted back "yes", and they told me to redo the transaction. I did, and it went through..
So, either there was literally NOBODY trying to get a pair of the most coveted F2F tickets of this tour, or Craig is on to something.

I was trying to buy for the Tool onsale this morning and the Ticketmaster site did not have a box for the cc security code. It was there but greyed out. I tried a few things including to editing the card, nothing seemed to work. Then I stumbled on some Amex promotion payment. Not exactly sure what it was but it granted me more time to enter all my card info into that screen and buy the tix. Weird.

So, are you saying that if you enter 111 as fast as you can, regardless of the correct CV code, that saves you the millisecond in time to come in first, lock up the tickets, and then you can take your time entering the proper CV code?

Correct!
What about just leaving it blank and clicking it?
I'm thinking then it pops up as an error field incomplete rather than processing...
