Hello All, If the allotment of tickets available for mail order is indeed being changed after the fact, that too is simply not right. Had the process been disclosed, up front, as 100 percent mail order, we all would have done mail order and there would have been a level playing field. But, to change allotments and/or the presale and general sale after the fact, just because more mail orders arrived than anticipated, should not reduce non-mail order purchasers chances. Perhaps this should have been 100 percent mail order with every person having to send in their own individual order, with a one ticket per show limit, with the buyer's name printed on the tickets, and requiring ID that matches the name on the ticket for entry at Soldier Field. That would have also made scalping a lot tougher. If it is the case that "mail order will get allotted more tickets if demand is high", and that had been disclosed up front, I probably would have done mail order. But, it is simply not right to change any allotments after the process started. I vote to return everyone's mail order, unfulfilled, and start over with 100 percent mail order. Let's make this a fair process, rather than giving an unfair, after the fact advantage to mail orders. Just my 2 cents for the 2 tickets per show I would like to buy, for me and my wife.

I think everyone should take a breath and thank the fine folks at GDTS TOO. They have a huge task ahead which they might not have anticipated and I know they will be working hard to hand out as many miracles as possible. Although I have a pit in my stomach about not getting my tickets, I will go to Chicago regardless because I miss the community! My last show was there. I really hope that my last last show is there as well. So good luck to the staffers. You got this! Crank up some tunage and keep sorting!

Estimated-eyes, I think you hit the nail on the head. I hope you're wrong about the brokers percentage-wise. That's precisely the reason why there is a GDTS or GDTS Too now, to make it a little bit of a process to do and, to have to commit money up front.(but if you like Black licorice).. Hopefully the brokers will find it easier to scalp Taylor-Swift. It's much better to do it this way and try to level the playing field. I can't compete with someone who has 20 buddies or employees with multiple logins, syphoning off sections at a time. with only 3 nationwide shows this was always a lottery at best. Even we who Mail Ordered should plan on Having our own July 5th celebration...But I hope to see you in Chicago. 0 0
