    People wait in merch lines for 6+ hours? That's completely nuts. If that's actually the case, they should absolutely do some sort of pre-sale.

    Signed. Please do this! It would be one thing if they enforced limits (i.e. 1 poster per person, no exceptions) at the merch truck / venue, but to stand in line for hours to only be told the poster is sold out because of folks buying them up to hawk on ebay is enough to make people go insane!

    I'm all for this, I actually emailed 10c last week about it. Doesn't sound like they care to go along with this idea....

    Hi Dave,

    We do not sell tour merch on our site in advance of the show. The band likes to keep the tour merch special and specific to the live event as much as possible.

    -10c

    I don't think it necessarily needs to be sold ahead of time, but have the option for a 10c member only, or 10c ticket holding guest only line having an item reserved for you. Good on you for firing off an email though!

    Also pertinent to this discussion is that Santos admitted on the old Rob/Tim Bierman radio show that the 2009 preorder negatively impacted the secondary market. Seemed like something they were concerned about.

    so I wonder what the deal is with them not offering it anymore??
    It would be very easy to do....

    To be fair on the band's side of the business, I bet all the people in line waiting for posters tend to buy a lot more merch in person than if we all could buy a poster in advance to avoid a line. Separate the posters from the rest of the merch and they probably sell less shirts/buttons/etc.

    Right, that's what I asked. A pre-sale option for 10c ticket winners. That was the response I got though...I can't justify waiting in line all day for merch. I've never been to Chicago and want to check out the city

    Then charge a premium of some sort for the poster presale. The lines at merch wouldn't be remotely as ridiculous and you might end up picking up a t-shirt or something else if you can walk right up at the show.

    Once implemented, we'll see a petition about how to fix the long will call wait line.

    I'm willing to bet that the majority of people who complain about lining up for hours to pick up t-shirts, stickers, and artwork that often have no clear link to the actual city, will be right back there in line for hours when the tour starts up again.
    Change will only occur when the fans stop lining up in a queue for hours for non essential items :). Enjoy the music everyone

    truth.

    i 100% agree although i dont agree it should be based on seniority or kept to 10c only. we dont make up as much of the population of a show as people think. for it to be 10c and be worth while for them that would have to be a 75% of the fans at each show are 10c. not happenin... keep things like stickers, shirts, hats etc sold at the booths and offer each poster and the main tour shirt, 1 guys, 1 girls, sold online. we all know 10c is a profit business. if they ever do this again it will be a public thing or they will sell them in person for non 10c AND online for 10c. they could even do a poster/shirt package deal for the shows like wrigley and fenway being special occasions

    I refuse to sign this petition.

    Much for fun watching 30-50 year old adults, wait in line, wrapped around Wrigley Field, a mile long...FOR 5 HOURS, so they can buy posters/stickers!

    Hahahaha

    Don't forget to bring your backpacks!
