How Did You Get Tickets?

Those who got them? I was logged in 15 minutes previous hitting refresh and when the clock turned :59 to :00 all I got was proxy error after port error. Most of the time it wouldn't even let me back on? Do you all have T1 lines or something?

    i have a cable line, but i got all the way to check out, bought the tickets and then i got the "can't load this page" couldn't get back on the site, thought for sure i was screwed........nothing in my email, bank account, then about 10 minutes later, i checked my bank account, and it said i had purchased something from 10 club, checked email, and they had sent my confirmation about 5 minutes later.

    i don't think i've ever complained about 10C for anything. but this is FUCKED. every single fucking time, it's a nightmare. tickets in your cart, enter your card info, click submit ... FUCKING CRASH.

    Had the page open,clicked on the first Wiltern show, and the page crashed. Oh well., I didn't get my hopes up for this one. Just from hearing about the experiences others have had with gettting tickets this way. I'll try ticketbastard on Friday..........................

    got 1 pair - not sure what date though because it failed like 30 times - i don't want to get more than my quota for one show and haven't gotten the confirmation yet - but my cc was charged.

    keep trying people. once you sumbit the CC info, i think you are golden even though you may get an error message. check your bank/cc to see if you have a pending transaction!

    problem is, even though i got the bank statement, i don't know which show i grabbed for la bc i kept switching. im terrified i might grab the wrong one and get one set knocked out by 10c. thats assuming i can even get through again.

    I tried for an hour, just reloading, refreshing, etc. I was logged out When I finally entered my visa #, I got an error message. Tried to get in again and was unable to even get to the PJ website for another 15 minutes. Finally got back onto the site and to the ticket page again, but Berkeley tickets were not showing up as available. I thought I had missed it, but I kept reloading the page and the Berkeley tickets showed up again as available. Put the cc # in again.. and finally got a confirmation and then an email confirmation followed soon after. Whew! Worth the wait, I'm certain of that.. but my husband thinks I am a *nutcase*.

    What a nightmare. Got thru 3 x with S. Cruz tix, but each time got locked out during chedckout after entering credit card.

    However, I JUST GOT Berkeley at 11:40 a.m., so a bird in the hand...keep trying people. The message said out of stock several times but I kept trying and got them.

    I'd rather have made a weekend out of it at the beach, but I'm amped to have gotten anything, even Monday night.

    I was on at ten am just like everyone else. Server went down, I tried till ten fifteen. Then I moved on and was reading news stories and celebrity gossip crap. Then I checked to see if the board was back up and tickets too, just to see, and San Diego was up an Santa Barbara. So I got a pair to SD which is all I wanted and tried for. I did think about switching to Santa Barbara but nah, I'll stick with SD.
    Let's see those 2013 dates in the southern states.

    I have two pending transactions for SD... no email.... phoned the club and they said I didn't get tix... so I sent an email. how did I have them in the cart, pay twice and still not have tix? I thought I had them, doesn't make sense. waste of time.

    Bulldog tenacity/persistence with moments of patience.

    Now I have three transactions pending and ONE (the most important part) confirmation.

    It probably helped that I'm a government worker on holiday who could afford to spend the time hitting the refresh button.

    Same thing happened to me. Tried to submit my CC info for both L.A. shows three times...nothing but errors or server was unavialable.
