Unexpected Journey - Further Adventures
Nov. 8th, 2012 08:41 pmRemember yesterday, when I told you all about my attempt to get advanced tickets for the Hobbit movie being released 12/14? Remember yesterday, when I said that after all that trouble I finally had the tickets I needed for the time I wanted to go and located in my preferred seat range? Remember yesterday, when I seemed so certain I had won?
Yeah. Having three sets of tickets (one for the new Bond movie, one for the final Twilight movie - to which I plan on wearing my Team Helsing shirt, and one for the Hobbit) I decided it would be best to make sure each set was properly paperclipped and labeled. Lo and behold me hearties, I discovered that the replacement tickets I had so laboriously procured were for the WRONG TIME (10:30am for pity's sake; what, am I supposed to take the bloody day off?). Yeah. So I popped online and paid yet again for the tickets, this time for the right time, and thank goodness my preferred seat range was still available.
I have yet to get back to the theater box-office and get the tickets I finally got yesterday refunded. I figure I will just go early before the Bond film and do it then. I'm going to want to grab someone by the lapels and shake them till I hear their brain rattling about and blood begins to ooze from their ears and nose... but I will resist that impulse. However, I will insist that they refund me both sets of online fees/surcharges that I paid for the convenience of ordering online given the fact that I had to come into the theater to actually finish/fix the total transaction/experience. Because they really smeared the walls with poop on that one.
Ugh.
