I have never understood the waiting in line all day for the merch trailer, isn't everything that is for sale at the trailer also for sale inside the venue? Just go in at 6:30 when doors open and get whatever you want, sure you have to hold onto it all night but beats wasting the whole day in a merch line
Things like posters sell out quickly and people want to make sure they get theirs. Posters, stickers, city specific shirts seem to be smaller quantity inside the arena than in the truck. Also, when the merch truck/tent idea started in 2013, the lines weren't long. I got to Pittsburgh around 4pm and was only maybe 30-40th in line. Baltimore & Charlottesville I walked right up and was waited on almost immediately. Only in Pitt did I miss out on a poster, and it sold out maybe 15 ppl ahead of me. It was the 2014 tour when all hell broke loose and people began lining up early in the morning.
...also some people don't want to lug their poster into the venue so they drop the poster off at their car or room.
...also, some people want to have their cake, and eat it too.

The question was why people wait in line beforehand, not why other 10C members throw darts at fellow fans just to be &^%*(${ rude.
I agree with RK, if the option is there to get before the show I think that is awesome. If you want to wait in line you can. If not, you don't.
Question on stickers. Has the limit been strict to 5 stickers per customer? At the merch truck & inside the merch tables. Thanks!
Changed to 3 stickers and pins for lauderdale.

Thank ya's for the info. This will be tough trading to complete the 2016 sticker set. Not gonna happen, but hope / wish the 10club store sold these stickers after the tour is over.

Hey cincybearcat: You are right on....... that is exactly my point. Check out the prices of the current Tour stuff that's already on ebay. Those sellers are not fans...... they're a bunch of locals working in teams to buy up whatever they can and make huge profits.
Joke's over with the whole "bunch of locals buying 15 posters and 15 show specific shirts then jacking them up on ebay that same day" scene. It should be an easy fix..... If you win the lottery you qualify to purchase stuff for that specific show..... even if it's at a later date. This would allow Ten Club to produce exact quantities (with no left over inventory). Win / Win
No, I don't think there should be a lotto for priority merch.
You are missing the point, I think. I read that as.... If you win the lottery for 10c tickets you get access to purchase merch in a nice easy fashion over the Internet and have them shipped to you....
Any help on some stuff today? Just a few things and I can PayPal immediately.
Yeah behind you with the request....what can we do otherwise but go to ebay and feed these beasts. Not double the price.....let's go for 10 times more. No stuff it, let's push it further. Seriously, this is not stuff 10 years old....this is flipping gone flipping crazy.

Tell me about it. I'm doing the OYR sticker raffle and I need more people to help out with donating stickers.

I know it's been mentioned before but the band really needs to start selling the merch online. When I went to the Rolling Stones show last year in Orlando, the band was selling the merch online a few days prior to the tour (and you can probably still buy it online now). I bought one of each type of shirt online on my phone while on the way to the venue--best merch buying experience ever. I got to enjoy time with my dad prior to the show without having to worry about making huge lines

I get what you're saying but I think the band management realizes that the frenzy over the merchandise is good for the bottom line. People buy stuff on impulse now because they they might never see it again after it sells out.

Good point man. It's good publicity too when pics on the site and social media show huge lines at the merch trucks outside the show.It's a crappy situation.

And someone saw quick glimpse of poster and says it appears to be a Planet of the Apes type-theme. Which makes me guess it's Ames...
