if its like a lot of other events/concerts, it feels worse when you realise the reason you're locked is because lots of other people buying heaps to scalp.

I can get to various stages of the process until it dies.

I dont think it can stop scalpin, but you had to be registered with cricket australia and get a secret buyer id before you can buy. Been waiting for months for this!!!!!!!!

If anyone can book me 2 premium or gold tickets at Gabba on 23 or 24th Nov I'll give you a commision :P

They would write some script that submits thousands of requests per minute.
