    For anyone who has sold on F2F...How are you paid and how long does it take to get paid?
    Bank account of your choice, about a week
    Important note - the bank account HAS to reside in the country where the show is performed. A number of fans have sold tickets in another country (US fan -> Canada show, for example) and it does not work. Major problem with TM, I have a thread on this below.
    Interesting...I used my credit card. Tickemaster CA just called me to confirm it was a legit purchase and said they are pushing it through now that I confirmed.

    that's what Ive been telling people for 10 days.! .. .Locks the seats to you

    I've gotten an "Oops" we couldn't process your payment, then tried again with my other saved card and it said "Darn, another fan beat you." What's up with tha

    that one means another persons order was in process first.. so never tried to charge the card. If it requests authorization needs a product, a total all the fields filled in ... CV and INS and payment for the processing to start.. Must have been missing one.

    I’ve seen insurance mentioned before and mind you it was 1am when I arranged to purchase with a coordinated drop but I didn’t see any insurance offered for the Toronto or Hamilton tickets. If it was offered I didn’t select it and the transaction was quick to complete each time.
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    It's only for US shows.

    It was definitely filled in. If not, it gives you a more specific error message pointing out the issue. It was a general payment processing error. Could be a fraud block or something although I didn't get anything from the bank. It's possible that I put the wrong number in (though I don't think so).

    FYI I was having issues checking out. It tried to process my card and I got errors. It took me almost 5 minutes to figure out how to get them. The system held the tickets the entire time
    I know, it happened to me the other day but I stop trying getting them after my card was declined (error) 6 times...bank said it was going thru but vendor was rejecting it... weird!
    Glad you made it!
    Thanks! That show is on a good friend of mine's and HUGE PJ fan's birthday! He has his own construction company so getting tickets through this was basically impossible. Glad I could help him out!!
    Super cool! I'm sure it's a great feeling when you can snag tickets and set up a good friend! Happy birthday to him!!!

    then someone else's was submitted first and it wont process two orders for the same tickets, in the race its the first to SUBMIT,

    It's for selling.  Selling isn't a refund, it's selling.  TM needs a bank account to credit the proceeds to.   If you sell US tickets its designed to send funds to US bank account.  If you sell Canadian tickets it's designed to got to CDN account.  I guess it didn't occur to them that people in neighboring countries frequently cross the border.   It's also crazy.  Many companies like to make money off the Foreign Exchange.   I'm surprised TM hasn't sorted it out just so they can charge 4% to do the FX :)

    For those trying and looking to expedite the checkout process via the app is your credit card info stored? While attempting for that infamous Baltimore GA pair that Katie snagged I clicked the final buy button only to miss out; however, the credit card details were stored. During subsequent purchases just had to entire the CVV number. Might be useful if you can purchase a pair just to dump it later and have everything already saved.

    What do you think the chances of people going to a show with an extra and hooking up a fellow random fan are, instead of putting it on Fan-to-Fan? Slim to none?  
    I could see that happening if someone in the group had to cancel last minute or something. 
    Ill buy extras for any 45ish fairly attractive single 10c woman that want to join me !
