Well unfortunately, I chose that option lol. I suppose it's true, that people can print the thing twice, and all that, which is why I'm a lil concerned about it. But, hopefully all will go well.
At the event, I'm bringing in 3 papers:
PRINT AT HOME - Tickets
PRINT AT HOME - VIP
PRINT AT HOME - Reciept
I'm also bringing in my credit card and ID, so that should there be any kind of problem, i'll have credentials to backup the fact that I did indeed purchase the tickets.
I'll probably end up calling wantickets at some point near the event, to ask how the PRINT AT HOME thing is going to work. Cause as far as I remember, there didn't seem to be ANY kind of laser ticket scan, as part of the entry, and these PRINT AT HOME tickets have a barcode that is to be scanned like a ticket would be.
OH man...now i'm starting to worry. :)
I hope to god there isn't some kind of funk up at the entry and for some reason they DON'T allow the PRINT AT HOME tickets. Though, i'd be hardpressed to give any reason why they wouldn't. After all, PAH are only a step away from the tickets you pick up at the event.

i didn't buy the actual tickets yet, but i purchased a few VIPs just in case i decide to go, and i took the print at home option. it looks pretty convienient to me.
i don't see what the problem is unless you're printing out the tickets multiple times. |

PAH: Print at Home?
I'm not sure about the ticket booth times this year, maybe Mr Balenblanc or DDMarie will post some details about Willcall to the seven bitchy TAs :clown: |

We're talking about selling the tickets to STRANGERS that you don't know... not for own use or selling to friends. |

HUFFER, we're talking about selling them to strangers not for your own personal use. You will be completely fine. |

I think there actually was a laser scan. Anyone can confirm 100%? |

Kendo: Oh cool. That's a load off my mind. Now, I just have to worry about the actual PAH (Print At Home) method. I don't believe it was used last year...was it?
I guess i'm worrying over nothing...after all, I have more than enough proof of purchase. Guess I just have a distaste for any possible hiccups that may make getting into the event problematic. Like anyone, I just wanna hand over the ticket, and get into the place. Easy-peasy. :)

Jason used POH ticket for Resolution.. It was no problem, scanned like a normal ticket. It's not like Will-call where you have to go pick up the ticket at the event. |

Bleh I love BEB but I refuse to buy tickets for an unannounced lineup.
I'm not going to waste 160 and *hope* that someone great gets booked.
What they have so far blows and adding Armin makes me want to go even less. I skipped Resolution this year and looks like I'll be missing BeB too..
Why don't they get someone better?
Loco Dice, Magda, Lawler, Gui Boratto.. SOMEONE.. . I'd go for them... not all this cheese house and trance bull. |
