    Worst feeling: Seeing a new screen pop up after a refresh only to find out it is the verification check.

    I hate the "NEW" ticketmaster.  It used to be if you have tickets in your cart they don't disappear....been a few times tonight getting "blue balled" by thinking I had tickets for Nashville and Baltimore.

    Complete BS.  Got to back the old system where if someone has them in the cart....they don't show up everywhere for a free for all.

    I see what people mean about the countdown clock not being there on F2F.  I tested Oklahoma.  When I put in for regular TM seats the clock came up as an indication I had time for the seats to remain mine for the countdown.  I released those and brought up F2F seats and there was no countdown clock.  So I'm sure someone or somebot else could grab those away if they are quicker than me.   I hope this is an error as opposed to something TM thinks is the right way to sell tickets.  I plan to report it to TM Customer Service via email.  As many of you as possible should do the same.

    This must of been what it was like to get a loaf of bread in the soviet union.  So much easier to go on stubhub and match sellers with buyers for the price they are both willing to pay. this is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo stupid
    agreed.  At this point id rather just pay 4 times the price or more rather than wasting hours of my time refreshing over and over again.
    Welcome to the world of free market capitalism!

    This all illustrates that the notion that these secondary market sites like StubHub are 'evil' and anyone that uses them to sell tickets are gonna rot in hell is just not true.

    They serve a purpose.  What we are all experiencing now is that purpose.

    They connect a seller of a commodity with a buyer at an agreed upon and fair market price.

    It's literally all I want the ability to do right now.

    Some observations:

    What happened to the phone number verification?

    Also the capcha shows up every let’s say 30 times instead of everything 10 or so.

    Perhaps this is why we are losing to the bots.

    But...that is what the market says it should be.  It's not like it's personal.

    It's where the market for people wanting to see Pearl Jam play at MSG are willing to pay has settled.

    Is this communist, government controlled distribution of goods and services bullshit really better?
