Does your original confirmation say 2 or 1?

Contact the ticket folks! They're the folks to fix you.

A friend of ours reports getting a confirmation email and bank charge ~3pm pacific for a single $240 ticket.
(she registered for only one.)

that seem to debunk the current consensus about how all this is going down, unless
1) she or her browser messed up and actually signed up for a $390 ticket instead of a $240.
or
B) single tickets are drawn and/or billed/emailed differently than doubles?

If they've actually confirmed any $240 tickets, wonder no nobody has reported so here?

perhaps some of the people reporting here have got $240 tix, but all chose not disclose that?
you'd think someone wouldn't care what others think of not being able to afford more...

anyways, the wait is killing me....

Registered for either Tier 1 or Tier 2 ticket. Received at 5:00 PST today that I have received one Tier 2 ticket... $339.00 with fees. Yay!
A plan is what you vary from.

Original confirmation said 1. Before the close of reg, I opened a ticket to increase it to two and they told me my change went through. We'll see. I am really happy to have at least one ticket!

God, this is KILLING ME! Two friends already confirmed they got their email! I registered within the first 30 min they opened registration, and yet...still nothing! I know, I know...they're not doing it by WHEN someone registered, but the more and more of my friends confirm they got theirs, and still an empty inbox..the more I start to freak out!!!! :cry:

Interesting. I have a friend who had a similar issue. They made a change after the fact, but it didn't reflect in today's drawing. She changed price from $390 to $240, but was charged $390 today.

I believe we have had at least one $240 claim here today, several pages back, and reports of one more. That's just going by memory. (Additionally, not all posters are disclosing what tier they purchased.) There are more $390 tickets than $240 tickets, so I am not surprised by the many $390 examples.

SQUEEEEEEEEEE! Back for year 3!

2 x tier 2 (one for me, one for the bf).

Shipping to Canada via USPS is correct... but now I'm wondering (i.e., paranoid) about the part that says I have to be present to sign for them. I'm never home during delivery hours due to this pesky thing called a job. I wonder if/hope USPS will leave them at my local post office and leave a delivery slip, for me to come in and sign for them? In previous years I chose the regular 'ol $12 mail so never had to sign.

I wonder about that myself, Machina. I'm a naughty mod for not knowing the answer to that one.

I have actually had my tickets sent to work in the past for this reason, or held at Will Call. This year I didn't wanna change anything about my registration until after I won a ticket, so I haven't asked yet or made any moves. If I find anything out, I'll message you and/or broadcast it. Trilo might know. So might the US Postal Service . . .

Much appreciated :) I'm just not sure how USPS Global Express works that, and a quick check of their site didn't help.

I thought I had died and gone to heaven when I got my ticket confirmation email today. OH SHIT, WAIT! I prayed to Jesus that if I won the lottery I would go to church every Sunday and never sin again.
What do I do???
