I was talking with my friend who runs the popular blog, www.superbowlexperts.com
I alerted him to the situation so he could advise his readers not to count on firstdibz for Super Bowl tickets.
He has decided to use his blog as the headquarters for everyone to come together to let firstdibz know that their response to the situation is unacceptable. His blog has daily readers and allows anyone to comment, so everyone can join in
Power in numbers, right?

Please keep me informed of any new information and let me know how I can help in any way. I refuse to sign any new agreement with them and feel that we should be getting more than they are offering in this agreement. I attached a copy of my last email to FirstDibz. They do not get back to you.
The same exact thing just happened to me. I bought dibz in Miami, Indianopolis, the Eagles and Cardinals to hedge my Giants dibz and my San Diego and Tennessee dibz. For the first time I did not sell off any of my Dibz in the playoffs because I should have been guaranted 2 Super Bowl tickets. I owned the Giants so I purchased Arizona and Philly options which were the only 3 remaining teams in the NFC. I also owned San Diego options which I did not sell because I thought I had my 2 tickets in the bag and possibly 4 if San Diego won. It is not as simple as refunding me my purchase price and fees for these fraudulent options but what about all the money I lost from not selling off the other options. These fraudulent transaction changed my entire mind set of how I was going to proceed this year. I have my whole trip planned and no tickets nor the money to purchase them because of this fiasco. Please let me know of any lawsuits. I have already contacted the Attorney Generals office and am consulting with an attorney. My email is vinny718@gmail.com I refuse to sign the seller agreement that they sent after the fact.
I also downloaded and am filling out the form from the NY District Attorney's office. I had downloaded the form that pertains to Internet related issues. I will see what their response is.

I did one already, we need EVERYONE to do it to bring the attentions to BBB and other authorities. Talking is no use at this point, we GOTTA DO SOMETHING! I did not sign their stupid agreement so for those of you that are with me, first step is to FILE THE COMPLAINT.
Due to a variety of issues at play in the FirstDIBZ world, such as the need for funds to cover the unexpected losses incurred as a result of the fraudulent activities perpetuated in our markets in early January, we have been unable to honor all withdrawals in a timely manner. Because of this, we have had to enter a recapitalization period from which we expect to emerge in 45 days. In short this means that we are asking for your continued patience and understanding over the next 1.5 months as we continue to raise capital and generate enough revenue to process our payment obligations to you.
We ask that you understand that without the time to recapitalize, honoring your requests will take a great deal longer than 45 days. We have considered all options and feel that this is the fastest and safest route to meeting our commitments.
We will continue to operate FirstDIBZ with the singular purpose of honoring your withdrawal requests as fast as we can. We have also taken additional and necessary steps to ensure the validity and safety of all markets going forward. Also during this 45 day period there will be ZERO TRANSACTION FEES as a special benefit to all of our customers.
These are very difficult times for many companies, large and small. In response, we at FirstDIBZ have decided to fight back and rebuild rather than capitulate to market insecurities and negative economic factors. We understand that we can only do this with your continued patience and understanding. As we move forward we will keep you informed.
The FirstDIBZ Team
