WTF!?!?!?! Ticketmaster SCREWED me over...how can I fix this situation???

[thadman 10+ year member]

I had set my alarm for 9:50, awaiting for the release of the tickets to the DTE Energy Music Theatre with TOOL playing. I waited till exactly 10, and purchased my tickets and got AMAZING seats!!! They were directly to the left of the stage, but I didnt know that at first so I looked at the seating chart. After observing the chart for a few seconds I clicked next and was prompted with a 1 minute waiting time... Then I had to click which shipping I wanted, and I clicked on the cheapest (no charge, standard shipping). I was then prompted for another loading page...then all of a sudden it switched back to the ticketmaster page and said *sorry we can process your request*...

WHAT THE F**CK...how can they do that? I tried calling DTE to see what happened (didnt find a ticketmaster number) and...as I expected the lines were busy.

Is there anything I can do?

Yes there is something you can do about it, complain on the interwebz.

You aren't going to get any tickets by doing it, but nonetheless you still did.

Yeah shit happens. It sucks but theres nothing you can do about it.

Its not like they scammed you or ripped you off, there was an error.

I take it those tickets arent avalible anymore?

There are still good seats avaliable in the same section.

you should have bought them in person, especially for tool

That really isnt feasible...considering the venue is 3+ hours away in Michigan

I didn't even get tickets for tool, ga floor was sold out within the first 20 min. and so were all the decent seats.................

tool tickets are almost un-attainable.

I've been wanting to see tool, but I just looked on ebay, prices are $140-$250 for ONE general admission floor ticket.Even the shitty *** seats are going for like $100 a pop.

This is just ****ing stupid..........I hate how all these ticket "brokers" buy up all the good tickets then say, yeah we'll sell them to you......for double or triple face value.Anything to turn a ****ing buck.
