F5.

I hate online auctions.

Why? Because suddenly it's like, rush rush!, refresh (F5), bid again, fret!, oh, I missed it... Same goes for online offers.

On a similar note, Austin City Limits Festival will be selling tickets for next year's events. I haven't been, but I hear it's great! In fact, when my family came to visit, my dad called to ask if I could find tickets for him. Little did he know the tickets had been sold out since May... (well, unless you find a scalper).

Anyways, Eric and I found out last night that tickets for next year's 3-day event will start selling on Tuesday. Not only did we learn that, but we also found out that they will be selling a limited quantity of $50 (vs. $145-$185) 3-day tickets at an undisclosed time. Well, you know what that means... F5, F5, F5!

Well, come 3 a.m., no tickets yet... So when we woke up, we continued our new routine of checking till Eric left for work. Anticipation!

Anyway, time passes, and suddenly I see this:


I must have clicked so tremendously fast (or they just put it up), that when I clicked, it said nothing was available. So of course I clicked again, got through (!), and ordered. :)

Soon after, I clicked again and saw this:


And shortly after, this:



This all happened within a matter of 5 minutes.

Crazy.
