Sometimes you get a situation where a credit card is declined and those tickets get kicked back into the system as available. If you were able to get lucky that long after the show was sold out then congrats, but it is sold out. I just tried myself to see if I could purchase 1 tickets and there were none available.

at least I got lucky today - I went in at 10 AM & kept hitting reload til they went on sale - even then I kept getting a "temporarily unavailable due to the high number of transactions" message but within about 2 minutes I was able to get mine - they must have sold out fast tho!
 
 Anybody else remember White Zombie at the old 9:30 club??  Caught them doing 2 shows in early 93, damn that brings back great memories!

i had to originally go in and buy 3...then go back and buy a single one to get my 4th.

A little hint to all...don't give up at 10:01 or whatever. I've had many experiences of a show selling this fast, then checking later on in the day and successfully getting tickets. Like has been said, cards get declined, addresses entered wrong, whatever. It's no garuntee, but it has worked in the past.

flawd!  welcome back.
 
 Hey, I have a questions for you.  Who are Panic! At the Disco and why do so many teenage girls know all the words to their songs?

[flawd101]

well, i dont like them but they are a poppy/emo band that dress nice.  there songs are like falloutboys but not as bad.  very catchy, but it makes me want to take a hole punch to my nuts.  
 
 all the "cool" people liked them and their myspace names were "____ at the disco"  i think thats how they got popular. and now they are the new fall out boy.

nevermind.

 ticket info

Another reason you can get tickets later:  when a ticketing sale starts a lot of people have multiple windows open and multiple tickets in multiple "shopping carts", even though they may only want, say, 2. The tickets have been taken from inventory and are sitting in the shopping cart even though the person is not intending to purchase all of them (or can't, because the system is getting hit hard).
 
 All ticketing systems have an automatic function where after "X" number of minutes (maybe 10, maybe 15), if the transaction is not complete, the tickets will be returned to inventory for sale.
 
 So, it takes the computer system those 10 or 15 minutes to go through and empty all those shopping carts that are holding tickets but not completing the transaction.

they aren't going for too much on ebay at the moment...
