Want to go to ComicCon this year?
Better head over to e-Bay.
Four-day badges for the annual event in San Diego went on sale over the weekend. And sold out in a matter of hours. Tickets went on sale Saturday morning and by Saturday afternoon they were gone.
Single-day tickets are still available for the event, which is taking heat from fans after its ticketing vendor, Ticketleap.com, crashed multiple times Saturday.
“We’re obviously not happy with this morning’s events,” the official Comic-Con Twitter account tweeted Saturday after the topic became a trending topic (#sdcc) on the social networking site.
While Saturday morning proved tough going for many hoping to score four-day badges to the event where Hollywood studios have increasingly upped the ante when it comes to unveiling exclusive trailers and more, many were eventually able to secure tickets.
Shortly after 1 p.m. Saturday, the official Comic Con Twitter account noted that four-day badges were sold out and that only one day tickets were still available.
Fans experienced slow load times which prevented many from securing the multiple-day passes.
By the evening they were completely sold out even on the one day passes. I managed to get passes for Thur, Fri, and Sat. It was near impossible to get 4-day passes.
I managed to get 4 single day passes about around 2pm CST.
