just got 3rd row center at 15 after! woohoo single seats in row 3/4/5 now!

KarmaContestant · #3 06-20-2011, 11:38 AM

I pulled up row 2, seats 85/86. I decided I didn't want these, but managed after several failed attempts to get row 3, slightly right of center in seats 34/35.

I'm wondering if I should have taken the row 2 seats because I'd have a better chance of making it up for the edge walk...but I would not like being far left or far right of the stage for the rest of the show.

Good luck everyone!

I got row 2, 73/74 after about 15 minutes and after I bought 2 tickets in row 5. Now I need to sell the row 5 tickets If anyone here is interested, send me a PM.
Ticketmaster drives me crazy.

Row 2 - slightly off center

It took @30-45 min before will call tickets became available in rows 2-5!! I swear Ticketmonster is rigged. I also picked up 2 tickets in Row 14 -center, because I panicked after not finding any better seats after 25 minutes! This is a lesson in persistence and never buying the 1st crappy seats TM throw at you.

3rd Row Center.

Best I got was row 2 seat 29. Of course, now I'm "forbidden" from ticketmaster. Literally, the website says that. (Cue the FWIW references)

Ah, I guess it wasn't meant to be.

I'm still "forbidden". I rebooted & cleared my cache/history etc.TM must lock people from their server after a certain amount of attempts or timeframe

. Luckily I already bought my tickets. But I still kept trying to pull up seats for up to an hour until they locked my a$$ out. I swear it's always something of a learning experience buying concert tickets nowadays.

Yep, still locked out hours later. It locked me out after maybe 25 minutes of me trying to get tickets. You'd think they would want my money.

I had same experience last week, so I called them.... You will be banned for 48 hours, and there is nothing anyone even within TM can do to fix this, it's just that too many requests in too short a time period raises the red flag and their computer marks you as an automated program. You can still call and buy tickets that way , but in exactly 48 hours you will be up and running again !

Thanks for the info . I suppose I can see how many attempts potentially raises a red flag - but on the other hand it seems TM tries to unload their worst seats first & I was only phishing for 2 tickets. I kept pulling up rows 35-25 during the initial 10-15 minutes of sale. Like I said earlier, I finally bought 2 tickets - row 14 - center, after almost 1/2 hour, then 15 minutes later pulled 2 seats in the 2nd row

. There's just no rhyme or reason.

Second row center. I pulled them up on my first try right at sale time.

HejiraNYC · #15 06-20-2011, 02:28 PM

^^Yep. My a$$ is locked out too.

It even stopped taking my credit card information after a while. I finally ended up creating a new account with a new email address and using my debit card. Nuts. I will check at home to see if they are blocking IP addresses or if they are blocking specific user accounts. Good thing nothing else goes on sale until Friday.
