Once everyone has paid, if somebody with a charmed pass drops out, then we will inform the next people on the list straight away. If you haven't been contacted by the end of October, then I would say that you won't be lucky. There are very few places and they very rarely get returned.

I know of at least 4 people who have purchased and got charmed passes, but can't really afford them. They registered in the hopes that the two months advance notice on payment will give them time to save up. There is a lot of excitement and joy surrounding this event and quite a few people are willing to throw caution to the wind.
PS: don't take that as exact information that there will be four drop outs in the charmed passes line. |

I was pleased that I got tickets for the event...I was a late registrant for it, and was totally surprised. So if I was one of those that was to get one of the charmed passes, I would probably look like a fish.  |

But then again what's life without a little bit of hope? You just keep twinkling on there.....
Other than that, my thanks to Legends and Gabit for a wonderfully flawless payment system, my part is done and confirmed, now it's time to go play wrap, box and lable.
You've been a wonderful audience, thank you and good night!

Well I am doing my best to stimulate the world economy. Paid for my tickets to both events in Canada. Plus have paid for everything for Gabit. Now, as long as no one asks me to pay the charge cards, I will be just fine.  |

You got to watch out for them. They pretend to be friends, tell you to pay a minimum amount and then add interest more than your payment. I think they should be greatful that I am even bothering to pay them anything.  |

Yep, No confirmation email - but did you print the receipt from the Legends site when you paid?
I wouldn't worry |

The Legends website sends you an automatic e-mail confirmation of your ticket purchase. I got mine like.... two minutes after making the payment.
The Legends website said, in the detailed instructions on how the ticket payment works, that later on, the Gabit people will send out a second row of confirmations, and as they always do, I think they'll let us know when they're done sending those out.
If you have the receipt from Legends, you shouldn't worry. Even if something happens to your confirmation from Gabit, they'll solve the isue for you.

Here's a trick: debit cards. I never spend what I don't actually have and they don't charge me any interest. I just pay like a few cents every month for using the MasterCard. |

I didn't get an email confirmation but I did make a copy of the receipt after I finished paying. Of course, I noticed I misspelled my email address so that may have something to do with it; go figure. Okay, I was a little excited and my right hand was on a different part of the keyboard. So I hit an L instead of a O  . I immediately emailed Legends and let them know and also poor Mumsey a couple of days ago. I know you're barely being kept afloat now. "Mumsey, picture an air hug". It's the best I can do from 5K plus miles away. But I'll buy you a drink of whatever libation you prefer when I see you at AT4.

I made a copy of the receipt, too (thank God) and kept a copy on my computer at work. Now the computer has died  and the IT people say that they cannot get any of the information from it. It is a really good thing that I have access to other computers at work with email access and I can talk to others  You are right about the Credit card people; they are never happy with just a payment...they really want it ALL!! |
