My brother has a room mate and they are both purchasing camping passes. Now if what I have heard regarding one camping pass per street address is correct how would this work for them?
Any input is appreciated... see you in EDII. ooh and sorry to the lady I ran over on my bike last year. 2 drunks don't equal a right, it equals a left.

They should see if they have a friend that doesnt live with them that can buy one of the camping passes and festival passes, they could give the money to.

That makes no sense at all. I'm buying a pass for my parents and as so am using their credit card which is fine for my situation but to limit it by address is quite ridiculous and opens a door to a class action...... I already see it coming.
Falls closely under discrimination based on their income.
I suggest they review their policy.

Ticket limits are not uncommon for all kinds of events all over including sporting, concerts, musicals, charity events etc.

Where does it say anything about order limits per address? My wife and I will be ordering passes/El Dorado camping spot but our 21 year old daughter (who lives with us) will be ordering passes/car camping spot with her own account/credit card but the same address. Is this a problem?

From my understanding, it will be a problem. She should get a friend or relative to put it on their credit card and then she can pay them back.

It is per billing address. Or else anyone with 10 credit cards could just order the limit on each card and that would defeat the purpose of ticket limits.

Is there a way in the future to do it by name AND billing address? I have 10 credit cards, but they all have my name. If it were a different name but same address, you could safely assume it's a different person, if there's a way to filter it like that.

the ticket limit is per household, aka, billing address, per dwelling. only X number of passes are allowed to be had by the billingaddressdwellinghousehold

So what IS the limit per household? Can you only buy 1 RV pass per house hold or is it higher?

Was there always an order limit of 1 for RV's? Will this cut down on scalping and El Dorado 2 selling out within hours this year?

This is the first time limit of just 1. Now you can only buy one and you have to also buy a festival pass instead of just buying an rv spot alone. This will hopefully put a dent on the scalpers.

I completely agree with the one camping pass per address!!! last year ED2 sold out in about 6 hours, which left A LOT of people with the option to either A) buy a ticket from a scalper for twice the face value with no assurance of the validity of the pass, or B) Simply not camp in ED2.

There are ways around it. But I'm not posting that info for the not so honest SCALPERS to benefit from. Sorry

I wish I knew what it was since I have to buy two ED1s.

gosh please dont look for ways around the rules. There have been so many problems with scalpers buying the camping-rv- tickets that it really created bad feelings, frustration and stress for 2011. If there is any way GV can prevent this I'm all for it. Yes it's a bummer if some one genuinely needs 2 parking passes, but whoever needs a pass should be buying a festival ticket too, right?
I hope the new rules make a dent in the would be scalpers. They too will have to buy a festival ticket, too!
