Badges are STILL AVAILABLE!  Correct me if I'm wrong...but that must be a new record since they started doing the online sales!

Goes to show how a soft openings work much better and the truly dedicated can get rewarded!  Just my humble opinion on that though.

Cheerful indeed!  Very nice to see!  Might change after the badges are all gone though!  Lol!
Won't be long now. They've announced it on twitter!

I tried it for a couple that had Fri and Saturday, and it would not let them past the login screen

I get this nagging feeling that Epic lost count of how many badges are actually available and are just gonna keep selling.

Odd to go from sold out to how old, let's check inventory to some transactions didn't complete so there are now badges to several hours of open registration.

Guess we'll know come July when there are 300,000 people trying to get into Hall H. ;)

I wonder if they've also increased the allotment for Thursday.  Even though all days, sold out, Thursday was still WAY less crowded than Friday or Saturday.

I just got a Sunday ticket. Wouldn't let me buy a second ticket for my son. So then I attempt to use his ID to register only to find out he never confirmed his Member ID! I need one more Sunday (junior or adult) ticket. I am a newbie to this process... Was locked out for hours during the sale day. Can anyone help me with buying a single Sunday ticket? The notice said "Your Comic-Con Member ID is ineligible to purchase another badge for today’s sale." Anyone know if it reset at midnight?

If we just show up at the show on the Sunday, is there any chance of getting in? We will be coming from Seattle so would love it if there was at least a chance!

THANK YOU!!!

Since badges are tied to individual member ids, there's no way for you to buy two of the same day without a second id.

Unless your son is young enough to be eligible for a child badge, not really. Even if badges haven't yet sold out, there's basically no way they won't be by the time SDCC actually starts.

They do not sell badges on site. Is your son under 12? I believe he can get in with you if he is, and not need his own paid badge.

If your son does not have a Member ID, he cannot get a badge. However if he is 13 or under (i.e. age 12 on August 1, 2012) then he can accompany you for free and does not need a badge in advance.

I hope everyone that wanted tickets was able to get them. I have a strange feeling that they lost count of how many tickets the sold because they seem to have pulled tens of thousands of tickets ou of thin air.

Yup. Only Sundays are left now! I guess a bunch of lottery winners only wanted Saturday and/or Friday...

Unfortunately, my work server has been unable to connect to Friends of CCI since we added the shoutbox so I wasn't able to get a Thursday for my sister  :-\ but fortunately, FoCCI is usually one of the first sites that I check when I get home so I was at least able to get her a Sunday badge!  ;D
