TL;DR: I found a black knife, Brand Benchmade (Doug Ritter). Has three digit serial number which will be used to verify owner. Long version: I was out in the middle of the deep playa, when I saw a little black folding knife in the sand. It was completely covered in dust. I picked it up as moop. I fi...

I used this to sell one of my will call tickets to another party who will be arriving separately from me.

How do I know / make sure this worked? All I see is their email address and a "transferred to". I - the seller - didn't get a confirmation email.

[quote="pink"]NEVER NEVER NEVER USE WALMART OR WESTERN UNION OR MONEYGRAM. that in itself indicates a scam.[/quote] Seconded. Never ever use these services. Ever. If the seller demands it for whatever reason, assume they're a scammer and move on. The reason is there is no recourse, your money is gon...

FWIW I thought STEP was great every year before this one. I kept telling everyone don't worry STEP will come through for you - as we get closer to the event more people decide they can't go or abandon their ticket last minute. My guess is this happens this year too, except that everyone is holding o...

[quote="maladroit"]I registered on February 11th and updated my Ticketfly account. I clicked on the email link today exactly as my GPS-synchronized clock ticked from 11:59:59 to 12:00:00. Did not touch the browser window after that, only watched. Was placed in the line, the times wobbled around a bi...

Wooooooooo!!! Got ticket at 12:21... which is a palindrome. I only hit the page once, at 11:59:59 and almost a second as good as I could do that, seems to have worked because I have pretty bad lag, I'm overseas (300 ms ping time). I guess none of this matters now as next year it's going to be a slig...

*SCREAM* Got my 2 tickets + VP, very happy camper today :) Tickets were offered to me 6/23 late night Pacific time - just took me a day to get some credit card stuff figured out (Ticketfly why you no PayPal)... I entered the queue about 10 minutes after it first opened; I was sitting there refreshin...

I have checked and did not find that info in the FAQ. Namely whether, when my 2 tickets become available, I'm given the change to only take one.

I signed up for 2 tickets via STEP, now a friend offered me one of his. But I still need the second for my brother. So when STEP comes through do I get offered the chance of only taking one of the two tickets? Can I change my STEP application to one ticket? For now, I've not committed to getting my ...

STEP is kinda late to open this year... FWIW I was at the last 4 burns and never had a ticket after the main sale. This year was different but I actually managed to forget and logged in an hour late. The last 2 years - those with tickets selling out - there were plenty of tickets available at or bel...

#7 for me. As for burning man in general this year was the year that Burning Man went international. I swear I met more people from outside the USA than from the inside, a big difference from the years before. I met lots of people from London, Canada, France, and various other Europeans, Israelis, S...

So I was asking friends but nobody I know can come this year, and I only have a few days to plan, flying into SF from Thailand on the 29th. And then this comes along! What a great idea!! I am in! I can't bring anything large (tiny rental from the sounds of it, but I suppose I could try upgrading to ...
