See for yourself.

I think Comic Con has officially jumped the shark.

I just got my postcard yesterday. I didn't think the tickets would even be on sale yet.

Maybe they tried to cut down on the number of tickets, try to cut down on overcrowding . . . or they realized that they can make more money by selling the more expensive daily tickets.

Because people who got burned by the early sellout date last year got an even bigger jump on the gun this year (I fall into this group)? Twilight Fan Derangement Syndrome (I pointedly do not fall into this group)? I know they reduced the number of preview night passes available this year; I suppose it's possible they reduced the number of four day passes, period.

For those willing to take their chances, they sold returned passes for the first time via eBay this year, and it sounds like they'll do something similar for next year. For those not willing to take their chances, one day passes go on sale December 15.

It's got to be the worst spam I have ever seen on this site. I'd take erectile dysfunction spam over Miley Cyrus spam any day.

Of all things in the world, Miley Cyrus and Walmart are probably in the top 10 list of things that people are already aware of.

No extra advertisement is needed man.

I am looking for someone to transfer my Nigerian bank account to, and I need to know if you are qualified.

I considered the Twilight Factor as well. If that's the case, I don't think I want to go to a con overrun by Twilight fans, nor do I want to pay a huge eBay markup.

Sigh...

Unless you want to go to something in Hall H the day of the Twilight panel, my experience has been that Twilight fans actually aren't a big deal. And (although I can't say this for certain, since I didn't participate) I don't think there's a markup on the eBay-ed passes. They put them up as Buy It Now items; eBay was just the most convenient marketplace for them.

... because passes for an extremely popular event sold out before you bought one? Whose fault is that, exactly?

Who said I blamed others? It's never good to presume.

I'd like to try to go one more time before I grow tired of Cons, but I guess 11 consecutive years was enough.
