Advice for getting tickets to PAX

Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone had any advice for getting tickets to PAX Seattle 2014.

I know it is a long way off, but I have tried two years in a row to get tickets and have had no luck.

Last year I was in the online queue but the page timed out. I lost my place and by the time I realized this all the tickets had been sold.

So what's the secret? Do most people simply by them from scalpers on ebay? How far in advance do they advertise the tickets going on sale? What advice would you give me?

Step 1: Have alerts to @Official_PAX turned on your phone

Step 2: Be prepared to buy more than one set of tix at any time. I have never regretted this decision, as PAX tix are always in high demand. This will also help you complete sets if other days are sold out.

Step 3: Be alert that May is usually the time when they sell Prime tix

Step 4: Never hesitate to buy them or other legit tickets you can find. They go fast

Step 5: Maybe have to buy from another person for more than you'd like. It happens, but you can usually find reasonable people who don't charge $500 a badge.

Possible Step 6: Have more than one line in the queue, phone, computer, other browsers, whatever you can do to get them.

Desperate Step 7: When all else fails, but you want more than life to go to PAX and see DBOers and Bungie, then make your arrangements and go. You will find scalpers are plentiful and if you wait til noonish, they get pretty desperate to sell the damn things.

Good Luck.

P.S. Does anyone know when East badges go on sale?

It's fun to go even if you don't have badges. There's lot of B.org happenings in the area at that time, and it's just great to hang out with everyone. I actually felt kind of bad because I had a four day set that I don't think I utilized to it's full extent.
