Don't remember who told me this (or if its true!) but the Manchester and convention center lots are owned by the port authority, so that's why they are more reasonable for parking rates. Anyone know if that's the case? Would explain any leniency they may have for the "out at midnite or you're a pumpkin" rule.

If you do happen to buy any, please report back if you received a confirmation and when your credit card was charged. Just want to see if this works or not...
...you had me at hello...

I BOUGHT CONVENTION PARKING FOR FRIDAY THE 13TH AND SATURDAY THE 14TH 2012. I'M CHECKING MY ONLINE BANKING TO SEE WHETHER THE CREDIT CARD TRANSACTION GOES THROUGH AND MY EMAIL ACCOUNT FOR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF THESE TRANSACTIONS... AND THEY DID GO THROUGH.

Soooo.... apparently this link was leaked on Facebook. Now Ace has posted this on their page:

Quote
NOTE: if you did not receive an email inviting you to purchase parking, your parking pass may not be valid as they have not gone on sale yet for the general public. We strongly recommend to not listen to other facebook fans or rumors that parking is on sale. You will hear an official announcement via this Facebook page and our Twitter Account (@aceparking) when online parking purchasing is live. We are sorry if you followed the link, posted by another Facebook fan and purchased your parking through last year's page. If this did happen to you, please private message us. We are waiting for direction from The Permit Store as to whether or not these transactions went through and/or whether or not they will be honored. Again, we stress, do not purchase parking through ANY site until we formally announce that it is available to the public.

This all sounds fishy to me. My guess is that Ace is trying to cover their butts. The charges are going through. The passes are being confirmed/printed out. Clearly there was an 'invitation' sent out, so some 'legitimate' people are buying parking. The question is, how would Ace know which people are 'legitimate' versus not? My guess is that they're asking people to PM them, so they can unknowingly 'out' themselves...

Frankly, I'll wait to see if Ace proactively contacts us or refunds the charges.

This happened last year when the page went up early unannounced. I went through my 2010 link and purchased all 5 days and when it was leaked out the ACE purchase page went dead. The passes were all honored.

Yes, and last year shortly after the leak CCI just opened up the pages to everyone anyway. The only reason I can see for them not doing that right now is if they're trying to give some kind of 'special preference' to this mystery group of people who received emails.
