How to sell 10C tickets?
Is the only way to sell 10C tix is that the member under whose account the tickets were purchased must pick them up and then sell them for face value or less the night of the show?
Reason I ask is that I purchased 10C tix to Ed's solo St. Louis show. I tried for chicago or detroit, which are both much closer to home, but wasn't able to score those tix. St. Louis is 7 hours away, no big deal at the time, as I was pretty excited to go. Now several months later it is a different story. I just got back from an exhausting week in orlando for work, and I am flat broke and cannot afford the gas needed to drive to the show.
I would love to sell those tickets to another fan for face value or less but I cannot pick them up myself as getting there is the real issue. I can't bear the thought of those seats remaining empty.
Do I have any options?
thanks

Sell some PJ goods/merch on the board? Sell anything else on Craigslist or eBay? Look under the couch cushions for loose change or gold coins? Find some little side job or work that can help cover your costs? Just hate to see those paid in full tickets go to waste. Good luck!

However, it's not really so much about the money as it is the time. A 14 hour round trip drive sounds revolting to me now. I bought the tickets before I knew they were sending me to florida less than 2 weeks before the show. A weekend in st. louis sounded like a wonderful summer vacation for my boyfriend and me. He backed out of the trip earlier this week.
In fact what I might do is let the st. louis tickets go and pick up a single chicago ticket for $100 or so. Chicago is only 1 hour away and I'd be paying the same for that ticket as I would gas but without the drive.
Not sure what I'm going to do just wondered if I had any options for those tickets.
thanks

You're better off buying tickets somewhere else and then if you can't go you can try and sell them, even if you had to sell them for a small loss, it's better than just eating the tickets! Not to mention the fact that there are 253 tickets for this show on Stubhub, starting @ about $55.00 and there are TONS of tickets for both nights of Chicago also for under $100.00.

it's probably more worth it to just buy one ticket through ticketbastard...
For the most part I knew the rules about the 10C tickets before I bought them. What is a sure thing in March might not seem that way in July. (I did think I could arrange to have another member get them up so long as I arranged it through 10C and they knew I didn't get more than face value for them...but I guess that would count as "selling and transfering").
If I knew the seats were great then I'd drive to St. Louis. But I would feel sick if I drove all that way and was stuck in the balconey, when I could have bought a balconey or better seat for a chicago show. I didn't realize there would be so many reasonable, decent seats available for these shows after the 10C sale.
So the rookie learns a $162 lesson.
