Oakland General Sale

Post here with how you're doing with the Oakland general sale.

 

[The OOTS]

2 GA tickets for 11/8 thru tickets.com
2 GA tickets for 11/9 thru Prop presale!

I'm set!!!

 

[SFGAL]

Who got Oakland tix through tickets.com?

Got mine already through presale but out of curiosity... who got GA or good seats through tickets.com?

I tried it and got lower level sec 105... how did people do with GA? I threw mine back in but actually think TM was a bit faster and better...

 

[basco]

Im stuck in the virtual waiting room

Oh well...

 

[Reggie Thee Dog]

They're doing this thing on Tickets.com that is part really cool and very annoying. Basically you're put into a virtual waiting room and you are more or less in line to get your tickets. Kudos to those who logged on earlier than I did.

At least this is fair....I think.

 

[mcranston]

Bah, I'm in this fucking waiting room bullshit. It's not giving me shit except "... 3 seconds .. 2 seconds ... 1 seconds ... 30 seconds ... ". How I loathe ticketing systems.

I'm trying but keep getting:

Tickets are not available together in the quantity you requested in this section at this time. Please try a different section, or fewer tickets.

AND

We're sorry, we were unable to process your request due to high transaction volumes. Please try to submit your request again.

Welcome to the "Old School" days of getting in line early and waiting!

PC's have killed that!

 

[SFGAL]

Interesting... now the GA option is gone.

 

[The OOTS]

I got GAs for the 8th.
I was in and out in 2 mins.
Guess I got lucky.

 

[Reggie Thee Dog]

Interesting... now the GA option is gone.

Did you get in and check that?

 

[The OOTS]

Yes..there was a GA option.

 

[SFGAL]

Well i refreshed the tickets.com page at 9:59am and the waiting room had started so I think they started too early but hey whatever.

 

[Reggie Thee Dog]

I'm still sitting in the VR Waiting Room....whoa is me.

Actually I got Pre-sale tix for the 9th, so I shouldn't complain (too loudly).

 

[The OOTS]

I was on at 9:45 and had three windows open.

They had the waiting room already.

 

[Reggie Thee Dog]

I think they just started the VR Waiting Room early, I don't think they actually sold tickets before then....I don't think.

 

[The OOTS]

No... they didn't start selling early.

 

[spasm26]

I got GAs, but I think this is b/c the VWR was open a half hour early, and I logged in early.

 

[fp]

i don't believe they did...because in the waiting room the note changed from "on sale at 10am pacific time" to "currently on sale" or something like that, right at 10am

 

[nuke126]

i forgot it was daylight savings time...... didn't get ga

 

[AlliDreamsOutLoud]

I logged on a couple of minutes before 10 (thinking it was like TM and I could keep refreshing) but instead got the virtual waiting room. Luck must've been on my side because I got in and out in 2 minutes and snagged 2 GAs for the 9th!

I just hope the Concert Club GA tickets for the 8th went through.

 

[The OOTS]

I got GAs, but I think this is b/c the VWR was open a half hour early, and I logged in early.

Maybe they had people lined up because I was on 15 mins early.

 

[Reggie Thee Dog]

nuke you were on the thread last night and we were talking about Daylight Savings Time!!


Keep trying!

 

[mcranston]

Tried for GAs, got stuck in that damn virtual waiting room. I pulled some solid lower bowl tickets, but threw them back in. tickets.com blows

[fp]

looks like the GA option is gone from both nights...

 

[hotpepper]

I got two lower reserved for section 110. I really wanted GA. I'm willing to trade these or buy someone's GA's.

 

[nuke126]

GA option is gone. I got 2 tickets for section 102 for 11/8 ($160 each). and i got 2 tickets in section 119 for 11/9 ($95 each).

 

[nuke126]

i used 2 different credit cards for each of the Oakland dates, but both credit cards are for the same billing address. i hope this doesn't matter!! was that cancelling thing just a ticketmaster thing?

 

[U2Jazz]

I wasn't on until 9:55, but opened 20 windows and staggered the virtual waiting times on them. At 10:02, the 18th window changed to the order page and I scored 2 GA tickets for the 9th.

 

[Reggie Thee Dog]

nuke your safe. The cancelling option is only if you buy over the limit for each show not for all shows.
