Official Dark Lord Day Tix Thread

Well since that was my roommate, and I have 3 friends who will be joining me on DLD (maybe more if I can secure some more tickets), I'm not sure (nor care) if you believe that I truly would scalp tickets.

Regardless, there's no benefit to selling the tickets. The beer is much more valuable.

 

Regards,

Butthurt.

There are seriously 10,000 people trying for 1,000 tickets. The status quo is pretty much the best way to do it.

 

It's a crapshoot. Don't take it so personally. Beer releases are nuts these days.

 

I'm just intrigued by your semi-defense of eBayers that you conveyed in various threads throughout the day. If you're just being cynical then by all means continue...sometimes it gets tricky to interpret tone/intent through bare text, but the evidence is there.

If you are actually going to DLD I'd welcome the opportunity to share some brews with you. I have a feeling we might get along.

 

Refreshed at 12:00 and strolled right through the process, I had all my information for billing written down in large letters on a piece of paper so I could get through the process quicker. This will be my third year in a row and I have not had one hiccup. My tips: Be ready with your info because its timed and do not refresh anywhere in the process of getting tickets. Sorry to all those who are missing out, there were only two of us that got tickets out of my ten friends.

To those using multiple computers: Is it possible that you may have slowed down your own internet connection trying to distribute all that bandwidth?

 

I struck out if any have any available to sell to a fellow BA let me know. Congrats to the lucky one's who scored tickets

 

I got my group C tickets at 12:15. I am sorry for those who lost out.

 

Got in at 12:00 left with zero, I was at work and their connection just couldn't push through... Sucks, can't believe I am going to miss the event this year.

 

Crazy. I tried every group at 12:01-12:06 with switching from 2 to 1 and it kept telling me there were none available.

 

Anyone want to sell or trade a tickets, check out my gots. Thank!!

Not allowed on BA. Go to craiglist, brah.

 

OK, thanks, please disregard the sell part, I'm really looking to trade anyhow. I had posted earlier about a trade but realized that finding one's gots list is no longer simple to do.

 

I don't want the ticket....I just want the beer! Just sayin

 

Here is another winner: http://chicago.craigslist.org/nch/tix/2907895476.html

 

For the price these tickets are being listed for I might as well just skip the whole thing and buy the bottles on ebay for $60 a piece and come out ahead.

Ticket: $450.
4 Bottles: $60

Thats $510 right there. Not to mention gas and lodging.

I can go on ebay and buy bottles for around $70 or so. $510 will buy me 7 bottles. More if I can get em for less than $70 a piece (which I have several times).

 

Got ya its odd but it's how music today has done ticket sales for years. I have been using their site for various concert ticket sales since at least 2000 if I recall so I'm just used to it.

 

I Like Turtles!

 

My boss is looking for at least 1 ticket. he has Goose Island Rare Bourbon County Stout for trade. I think thats a pretty solid trade so I hope I can find him 1 ticket at least!

 

Dear Michael on Craigslist: you're still a dick no matter how to try to spin it.

 

If it doesnt work out and you dont go, let me know. Can mos def take care of you.
