Why were the charity orders cancelled?

Please add to this as they come up with them.

1. Because its a test event (even the Tennessee one)

2. Amex made us do it. (Ashley)

2.5 American Express told us to void all wallet orders for certain accounts.(Tony)

2.5 There was an issue with AMEX Express.

3. Wrong phone number supplied.

4.Many purchases, flagged as a dealer. (Ashley)

5. Simple, the  email says you violated our T&C. We don't have to tell you which ones.(Noel)

6. The Charity had a "mass credit back"

anyone knows if the 50 cents tickets were cancelled?
So far, mine are still good.


Then how are these places selling $1 tickets ? Aren't they losing $3 ?
That may be why they're no longer available.
Perhaps they're usually used in conjunction with buying a ticket (to a White Sox game, for example) so the additional cost for the $1 donation is only 2.75% (.275)

And how would you know beforehand that the seats will be empty ?

How can an event not have Amex Checkout for it. Isn't it a site-wide thing on Ticketmaster?

I counted the initial outlay of $800 as $1 per ticket.  When all the fees are added, I think its about $4 per ticket.  If this was a tzedoko, many people would donate the whole $10, so the tzedoko would net approximately $6 per $10 ticket.  If a tzedoko sold $7 tickets, its net $3 per customer and $3 for the tzedoko.

$4 per ticket in fees doesn't sound right... In any case, if it just takes $800 to get this started it's a no brainer to lay out the capital and take a $1 profit on each ticket sold. Little doubt in my mind that more than 800 tickets would get sold.
