I thought only 10C had GA Pit tickets? $100k for 19 Pit tickets.

Fake sales.

or they have brokers that sign up as 10c members...Joe Schmoe doesn't know 10c tix are not for re-sale so the broker wouldn't get caught.

I was posting more about the 19 Pit tickets rather than the price. Doesn't stubhub guaratee that the tickets will be delivered or something? I'm assuming there's a penalty for selling "fake" tickets. Or is the penalty StubHub holding the funds?

Ah, makes sense. Thanks for the info.

Before this Stubhub thread get's locked too, no one is suggesting that anyone got to Stubhub now and buy a ticket for more than face value. We are suggesting you wait, and monitor prices, and eventually prices will be at face value. May take until day of show, but they will get there.

That's the only way most of us can go to the show.

I think we're talking about the delivery of tickets the week on the show, the tickets that we believe don't even exist in the brokers hands yet, and they're just speculating being able to fulfill the sale.

Your sale was legit, you had hard tickets, you sent them, end of story. That isn't what is happening on StubHub, for the most part, right now.

I see listings for tickets dropping below $250 now, but I figure they're going to do NOTHING but drop. Why lock into a ticket price now when at worst case you have to pay that same price closer to the show. And honestly you'll get in for a cheaper price, later.

ATTENTION PANICKED WRIGLEY TICKET BUYERS!

The above advice should be heeded before coughing up a week's pay to sit in the 500 section.

This is what I find incredibly dumb on the part of 10C.

Why aren't we allowed to talk about stub hub?

Most of the threads that have been locked on this forum are people sharing information about what they've seen on stubhub. a lot of people are complaining about the ticket prices, yea, but their also asking questions and trying to get guidance on how to deal with the situation.

No body here is promoting or even advertising stub hub, however, at this point in time - what other choice do people have? Like me, many were shut out of the 10C lottery and the tickets.com lottery... literally I couldn't get 1 seat to my name. Personally, I feel let down, and I've decided I'm just not going to travel to the show, barring some kind of miracle, as I don't do business on the secondary market unless i'm paying face price or below - and that's not going to happen until I'm dealing with some dude outside of the venue... and I wouldn't bother with that in a city like chicago at a sold out show, where these scalpers are sharks...

however - if i hadn't made this decision - what other choice do I have for tickets???!!!??? frankly stubhub presents the best alternative as at least they gaurentee your money back if you get fucked...

10C needs to be a little more open to the community here and let us discuss this secondary market and pool the intelligence so that people make educated decisions and purchases.

otherwise, they're basically saying, "If you didn't win the lottery, you don't get to go to the show."

pfffftttt.... win a lottery to go to a concert.... ridiculous....

Pearl Jam needs to tour so that this supply/demand issue can come to a head and they can satisfy their fans. At this point, the band is being extremely selfish IMO.

Sorry, this post will probably just get the thread locked.
