I share your annoyance raging_nelly. I was online at 9:30am but there was a problem with the allocation of tickets. I re-submitted but to no avail... sold out in three minutes! Don't fret though because some lovely people bought some tickets for us, probably just in case the event sold out. All we need to do is go on eBay and part with £120+
Really hope the legit fans have a ball though.

I'd guess It's not like Ticketmaster where when you put the ticket in the basket, it's reserved for you for the next ten minutes.
I suspect that lots of people managed to put 2 tickets in their "basket", but that those tickets aren't actually theirs until they've paid for them, so they lost in the race to check out. SeeTickets probably have to do it that way though, otherwise loads of people could just go onto the site and render it inoperable by putting tickets in their baskets that they have no intention of actually buying, just to make it difficult for people who actually want to buy them to do so.
That's no consolation, I know, just an attempt at a semi-logical explanation.
