the guy at tickets.com i talked to specifically said will call, but also said to print out your confirmation email which shows the date/time you purchased (so there's proof you bought during time/date the special offer was going on).
hopefully this will work or there is going to be a lot of pissed off people.

i just bought one ticket for EODM
so if something happens - i show up and my second ticket isn't there, i'll just sell it i suppose… and be extremely annoyed.
I too just bought 1 EODM ticket, though I'm going for the Duke Spirit. When I noticed that I wasn't being given any free ticket immediately, I checked this board and chose will call accordingly.

I called tickets.com and they told me that I will get the free ticket regardless if I choose will call or mail.

you do realize that it costs money to process a ticket order whether it's mailed out or not, to pay for someone to answer the phone when there is a ordering issue, and tickets.com is a for profit business..

so quick question for purchasing of a ticket in 10 minutes to take advantage of this…which tickets would be best to try to get into a man's pants with?
this deal doesn't work that well for me as I always go to shows alone

I also just got off of the phone with tickets.com. Both mail and will call will receive the free ticket.

I originally took it to be "buy one ticket for a show, get another ticket for another show free." From what I'm reading (and seeing in my shopping cart), it seems like it's "buy one ticket for a show, get another ticket for the same show free." Is the second interpretation the only correct one?

This is a great promotion, but clearly not done w/ the best execution as it has created tons of confusion. Glad these boards are here to sort it out. I'm optimistic it will all come out in the wash. But then again, I'm feeling awful damn optimistic about the future today :-)

Tickets.com just told me to buy one ticket and they would know based on the time I purchased to give me a free ticket (of course the receipt doesn't even have the time purchased!) at the box office. After reading the posts here about requiring will call, I called back again because I had selected to have my ticket mailed to me. This time, the guy put me on hold, and said that selecting will call was not a requirement, and that they the extra ticket would be mailed to me. Who knows what's going to happen. What a half baked promotion! Get it together 9:30!!!

I received an immediate and automatic email confirmation…that should be proof as to the time of our orders.

But I don't want a hipster boy! I did buy these tickets though. Hopefully I can at least get my sister to go, although hopefully she'll find another ride cause I don't wanna leave early so she can wake up for school the next morning. Ugh.

That's crap, it's another way to nickel and dime people. These would always be included in the ticket price but now it's $6 here and $4 there. The will call person is there and paid for. Total crap

Yes, but isn't that what the
service charge is supposed to be paying for?
I agree, a "delivery" fee for will-call is bullshit.

i dont know that you'd get a hipster boy so much as a straight up dirty guy who drinks a lot of beer and is pretty fun. you do "get" the band right?

the will call person is a 9:30 employee not a tickets.com employee
