Shall we take some more tickets each, so we increase the odds?

I need 2 for each show (campo) might try to buy 4 but hopefully the 10th won't be sold out when I finally reach the buying page...

I got somehow kicked out of the waiting line. :-(
Maybe a short disonnection of my internet. Now I am at the office and have to start waiting again. 33367 infront of me.

...still more than 1 hour to go

~~~ Keef rulez! ~~~

I have tried again two valid credit card, Visa and Mastercard, and it refuses it

I tried 5 valid German credit cards - Mastercard and Visa, all refused

I hope my German Mastercard will work. But it didn't work for the zip code show in Atlanta.

The same here. Waiting for hours and then German Master and German Visa are not accepted. That is more than frustrating!!!
We have booked flights and hotelrooms. So we have to buy via Viagogo and feed the scalpers!!
Or does anybody have 2 tickets left???

I checked Viagog and there are already over 600 tickets for the saturday show for sale.

the Price by Viagogo get cheaper than the official Price. Believe me

Wait 600 tickets are many many tickets.

i am waiting for Rio and Sao Paulo. The flight and the Hotel is booked.






Stones forever

F.ck me, f.ck it, f.ck that, f.ck you

Just bought the three shows La Plata with Vigaggo

I'm not setting a good example, but never have anyway..

Just before I was about shut down one of the two computers I've been on all night, I noticed I was close on another number.
I waited and tried again, the fourth time.
Rejected.
I tried a variety of things, different seats, different shows, different amounts of tickets.
All rejected.
In 35 years of being obsessed with the Rolling Stones, this is the first time they have ever said No to my money.

yep - did the same, tried many different combinations, different cards etc. to no avail
but someone said on FB that it's not possible to buy tix for foreigners... that's definitely not how it's supposed to work

~~~ Keef rulez! ~~~

Clearly, something is wrong with Ticketek rejecting all these credit cards.
I bought 3 tickets for Feb 7, then went back to buy one for Feb 10 and the same card is rejected.
Tried again with another card and it was also rejected.
Now I'm back in line.

Good luck!
If you get three for the 10th, I'll buy two off you.

could you buy your tickets for the 7th with a foreign credit card (not Argentinian)?

~~~ Keef rulez! ~~~

I was almost there and then my credit card got rejected.

Gotta say it really takes the fun out of the whole process, and the buzz you get when you buy tickets isn't the same if you opt for viagogo or another secondary market seller.

I wouldn't have been surprised if the sales were only open to residents of Argentina given that they haven't played there for 10 years, but if that was the case it should've been explained clearly on the website. And, besides, it seems that some people with 'foreign' credit cards got lucky.

I thought I did anyway. Multiple computers, multiple browsers per computer, multiple cards at the ready.

And all for nothing.

I'm now searching for Argentines here on my work assignment to try to beg them to borrow their credit cards. There are supposedly three here this week, but none have showed yet.

Yes, I used a USA American Express card.

ChrisL...I can only buy 4 total tickets, so even if I get back on the site, I can only buy one more ticket. Sorry.

I think this is the main point!
I got even friends from Uruguay who couldn't buy with their credit cards!
I guess Argentinian IP addresses had preferences, but it is just my impression seeing what happened last night!
I totally agree that's not 100% fair and if it is the case it should have been clearly expalined before the sale started. But have in mind that we live in a Latinamerican country and not all the things work like they should!!!! It could be just a failure or problem of the programmed site! Just my 2 cents!

I wish sincerely the best luck to the real fans who would like to experience a show here. I wish the best of the experiences to the open minded mates who want to come to party and have a good time with us.

I can afirm that some guys with "foreign" (not Argentinian credit cards) were succesfully buying their tickets, so I would suggest to don't give up and keep trying!!!! ><

Quique,
I'm back in line, and have a friend here with a US American Express. (679s said that worked for him).
If I were to use his card, and create a profile for him, does it make sense that I can then have the tickets sent to a friend's address in Buenos Aires and get the tickets there without the buyer being present in country?

Sorry for the question, just thought maybe that is obvious in the Spanish on the site that I can't understand.

I don't know Chris! It's unclear, at least for me too!
I can offer my address wo problem, but I'm not sure if they can give them to me because I 'm not the buyer! Hope to be clear enough.

What I know for sure is that you can get the ticket here at a Ticketek office just till 48 hs for the show, BUT hav ein mind that only the owner of the credit card with the credit card and document is allowed to retire the tickets!

I know that will create for you another extra problem! But please have that in mind!

This are the instructions in Spanish:

DURANTE LA FILA VIRTUAL

Tener un número de la fila virtual asignado no asegura la compra o reserva de tickets por parte del sistema.

Durante la fila virtual, un número te será asignado. Se te indicará cantidad de personas esperando delante tuyo, un tiempo estimativo de espera y el horario estimativo de ingreso al proceso de compra. Te recomendamos estar atento al sitio web ya que este tiempo es estimado y puede ir variando.

Durante tu espera, la fila virtual puede sufrir pausas. No te preocupes, tu número será el mismo una vez reiniciada la misma.

Podrás ver información útil relacionada al show (fechas de show, mapa, precios y cronograma de ventas) mientras esperás en la página.

Perderás el número asignado si reiniciás o refrescás tu página de la fila virtual una vez que tu número fue asignado. Esto no acelerará tu proceso, por el contrario, regresarás al final de la fila virtual.

Thanks Quique. Thanks for the help. And moral support.

I don't want to risk buying and still not getting them, so I guess I might have to go to the black market. That stinks. Very unStones.

Just found out that AMEX blocked my card after my first purchase.
Possibly, that's why it wouldn't go thru the next times.

You might have to call your credit card company, if you have used it already for a foreign transaction, to have the block removed.
