"Ten Club Members" vs "Registered Fans," Waitlisted vs Public Sale

Elle1929

GD, I didn't have luck getting Ten Club tickets, so now I'm trying to figure out my next steps. Sorry to be slow here, but I'm confused what's the path forward.

-I was waitlisted for the Portland show via my Ten Club pre-sale registration. Is there still a chance I'll get a ticket, or should I assume that's a miss? When do we find out what's the verdict on the waitlist?
-On the FAQs page, I saw that "Registered Fans" will also be receiving word about whether they got tickets. What is a registered fan?
-"Registration Sale" begins at 10am Feb 23 (tomorrow). Is this the same as "Registered Fans"? Do I have access to purchasing tickets this way? The FAQs say that only fans who have been given a code can access this sale. I assume I've missed the boat on this?
-Is there another public sale I should be putting on my calendar?

Thanks to anyone who can break this down for me.

33 minutes on the phone with Ticketmaster, and this is the rep and my best understanding (please don't take it as gospel) of what's going on:

-"PJ Premium" tickets, according to Ticketmaster, are likely to be what we call "Ten Club" tickets. They are available for pre-sale.

-"Registered Fan" tickets are for people trying to get in on the pre-sale who are not Ten Club members. Apparently they also have access to the pre-sale. (Disclaimer that she really wasn't sure about this, and it doesn't really add up to me, as I thought the point of Ten Club ticket access was to get ahead of people who are not Ten Club members)

-Feb 23 at 10am, Ten Club members and Registered Fans who got a code can start securing their tickets.

-If you got waitlisted like me, there's a chance that at some point, you will get an email with a code saying that you can secure a ticket. No timeline for this, and it will depend on what happens with everyone else securing their tickets.

-If you don't hear anything, you never got off the waitlist.

-There is currently no date for public sale. When shows are likely to sell out during the pre-sale phase (think Taylor Swift), the artist often doesn't give Ticketmaster a public sale date. According to the rep, for PJ, there's a majority chance that there will not be a public sale date. But that's not a certainty.

So, looks like I'm SOL! I should have registered for more shows or had my husband become a Registered Fan or something.

Again, none of this information was entirely clear or certain, so feel free to take it with a grain of salt. Hope I'm not spreading rumors.

So does this mean we can all jump on regardless of a code if we’re 10c members???  Seems kinda pointless to jump thru the hoops of registering thru tm to hope for a code to the shows we want. I mean fingers crossed but I read it different. Anyone else got a clue on this? Thanks and good luck to all

My understanding from the Ticketmaster woman was that if you got a code, either via being a Ten Club member or being a Registered Fan, you can start buying/securing/following through on your tickets at 10am tomorrow. (Not sure if you went through the motions of registering, either as a Ten Club member or as a Registered Fan. If you didn't, my understanding is it's too late for you, and your best bet would be public sale, if it happens.) For those of us who got a waitlist message or those who were planning to get tickets through public sale, we're probably-though not definitely- out of luck. Ditto on the good luck to all! Strikes and gutters.

Wait... what does this part mean?
"either as a Ten Club member or as a Registered Fan" 

10C members didn't get a code right, just the lottery picks?

As a long term member, I missed the code. I know, no code. I was on holiday and returned the night of the short period of time given. This will be my first PJ concert in my city that I have missed. Ticketmaster has tickets for AUD$500 EACH. WTF? I thought being a Ten Club member meant a decent lead in time for tickets. Went to register as soon as I realised no code and I missed it.

I know, my fault. Just bummed I'll miss them now.

Elle 1929, I have two extra tickets for Portland on May 10, but they're not together. Not sure how Fan 2 Fan works though.

Oh I'd love to snag a ticket! I'm going to try to send you a DM. Let me know if it works.

BSully, to answer your question, IF I'm understanding it right (big if there), if a Ten Club member got a ticket through the lottery system, he/she would get a code emailed to him/her. The code would allow that person to actually obtain the ticket.
