When you ordered your tickets, did you actually get tickets to download or just an order confirmation? When I check my order, it says "order created" and "processing." Makes me a little nervous.

No, I did not get any actual tickets to print. Just conformation and of course the deduction of my money. But I would not be nervous. The email I got from SK.com this morning was still advertising that the event was on sale and expected to sell out. I feel confident we got seats, only question is where? I was a little bummed I was busy at work yesterday and didn't get to check on this until a little before 5pm, and seen they went on sale at 2:30 and first come first row ect. I really like this idea, because at the DC Revival event I had bought tickets and still had to go and wait outside in the cold the day of the event to ensure I got a good seat as they were not assigned. I'm just wondering if I got ticket 20 or 200. or 19
Absolutely, always do!!
Congrats to you guys for scoring tickets! That theater in New Jersey looks BEAUTIFUL! I'm sure you will have a stellar time and hope you'll share pics!
I've actually been e-mailing someone at the store (a very nice, competent person) and she said we should get e-mails today confirming our tickets and more info. I quote, "the elves are working as fast as they can." She said they have never had to deal with this volume of tickets for an event. Understandable.No, I did not get any actual tickets to print.

I'm very excited for this!
Cool, I am interested in seeing what seat I got. Been keeping a close eye on the Penguin Bookstore webpage for any announcement of when those tickets go on sale as well. I hope they decide against the in store purchase only.
I recieved an e-mail just a couple of hours ago stating the following:
"Thank you for purchasing 2 books and tickets to WORD's event with Stephen King on Tuesday, June 7th at the Landmark Loew’s Jersey Theatre (54 Journal Square, Jersey City, NJ 07306). There is no paper ticket! Each ticket guarantees entry to the event plus one copy of the hardback edition of END OF WATCH. All tickets are non-transferable (no exceptions) so you must bring your ID the day of the event. If you purchased more than one ticket your plus one must arrive and and enter with you. Doors will open at 6:30pm and the event will begin promptly at 7:30pm. You will receive your assigned seat(s) via email soon!"
So I guess it's another waiting game to find out about seating. At least now I know I definitely have seats and 2 books! Woo hoo!
Looks as though there are 2300 seats at the NM venue.
I think I was one of the first to order. I was monitoring the site pretty closely and I think I got in a few minutes before 2:30. You said you didn't get yours until around 5, right? So if they are doing them in order, it may be a while still.
I just purchased tickets to the show in Iowa City which are general admission. There was nothing stating they were pre-numbered like the ones in Jersey. Anyone have any info or advice on how to go about getting a good seat the night of the show?? Much appreciation for the help!! 
So I emailed the venue, no numbered seats. She said there are a little over 700 seats. So chances of getting a signed copy are great! I would still like advice on standing in line to get a good seat. If anyone has any ideas, or experience, please let me know!I just purchased tickets to the show in Iowa City which are general admission.

Thank you!!!!
For the DC event for Revival, I purchased tickets and the day of the event I went 8 hours in advance and sat outside in the cold to make sure I got a great seat. And I wasn't even the first in line, there was about 4 or five people in front of me who got there earlier. In this instance it was first ones in get the best seats. So unfortunately I just suggest getting their early, at least you wont have to be cold. Bring a good book and a snack.
Just purchased my tix this morning for Louisville. I thought it was pretty cool that they are showing Stand By Me movie after the event. The boys and I will have a good time for sure. Anyone know how many tickets for the Louisville venue are being sold? I want to figure my odds of a signed copy.
My understanding is they're making all 2,300 available.
Iowa City, IOWA (KCRG-TV9)- If you wanted to see author Stephen King in Iowa City this summer you'll need to find a friend with an extra ticket.
The Englert Box Office says all 720 tickets for King's June 13th show were sold in about 30 minutes.

I liked your post, but I don't like your post....lol I was hoping for like 700 for the better odds.
Thanks for the info.
Thanks for the feedback - that is helpful!!
I asked the venue why some events there are general admission and some are assigned seating. She said that This event's seating was determined by the author's agent/ publisher. I notice some of the other book reading events on this tour are assigned seating. Does anyone know why the agent/publisher would make it different for different venues?
