  • I always hope the people that snag those type of seats were upgrading and will be listing their original seats shortly...
    Yes. Or before work, lunch time, after work, before dinner, after dinner, before bed, middle of the night..............🥴
    It’s pure luck.
    Make sure the fortune that you seek
    Is the fortune that you need

    Has ANYONE scored tix for MSG on Mar 30?  Been refreshing on F2F for days+days w/ no luck and wondering if I should just give up. 
    Not sure if you are serious or kidding?  There is no such thing as F2F for MSG.
    Guess that's my answer... (WAS hopelessly serious, btw).  😞

  • New to the forum and not exactly sure where the best place to post this is, but I have 2 excellent fan club reserved seating tickets to Phoenix. Looking to trade for 2 comparable tickets to Baltimore. If you have suggestions or are interested, I'm all ears!

  • Maybe somebody has already asked this and it's been answered (if so, I apologize).

    I sold 2 tickets for the quebec city show.  They're no longer available in my ticketmaster app, but I before selling, I had previously transferred them into my iphone apple wallet, and the tickets look like they're still there in my apple wallet.  I assume they're now not usable and "voided" on my phone?
    I ask because I have also bought other tickets on the fan to fan exchange and want to be sure that the people I bought from don't still have access to those tickets somehow - would be brutal to get to the venue, try to get in, and be told "sorry, your tickets have already been used"

    Winnipeg, Manitoba (September 08, 2005) Thunder Bay, Ontario (September 09, 2005) Ottawa, Ontario (September 16, 2005)

    My understanding is that once you sell tickets, TM issues the buyer a new ticket with a new barcode and the previous barcode (and whatever info is included in the apple wallet version) is voided. TM makes a big deal of saying that they are the only source to buy 100% verified tickets on the resale market, so if the tickets didn't work they'd have a major problem.

    Have been sitting on Hamilton for a week now looking for an upgraded single. Was painful seeing the comments that Toronto GAs were coming and going, making me regret focusing on Hamilton.  Well lady luck finally struck! 

    A pair or GAs popped up.  I got the another user has got these tix message, so I went back to my rotating searches for 1 then 2 then 1 then 2 tix (helps avoid the Got it button in the app), and to my surprise a GA single suddenly appeared and I was able to close the deal!  I haven't been GA in 20 yrs so needless to say am pumped!

    For all of those looking for upgrades or tix into the building....keep going, but do it on your terms and time.  So much of it is luck. Also, if using the app try toggling your search between single ticket and pairs to avoid the Got It screen.

    I have a bunch of tricks Im trying, but it all comes down to timing. You can automate some things, but if the ticket pops up right after your most recent refresh, then you end up X seconds behind everyone else who refreshed a little sooner or later than your latest one (however long your refresh rate is). 

    But, the biggest roadblock is the time that the site takes to load the credit card entry form, which comes from a different domain and is not cached so it takes a variable amount of time to load each time you get to that point. And, if you use certain credit cards (some Mastercard and Amex), theres an additional verification that effectively kills your chances.

    I've been obsessing over this for the past week and a half. I scored a single nosebleed the other day but all the trickery/hackery in the world wont defeat the inherent timing issues.  


  • OK, Ive been bombed with emails - here is the trick... Just get ANY CV code in your CC will be declined, then go back in fix it ... once it declines the order is yours... .It worked first for PHX where i got lower, then i did OAK one and got GA!!!!!!! worked twice!

    I think I can type my correct one just as fast as an incorrect one.  So not sure where the time saving is.  But thanks.  All suggestions are appreciated!  In the same line of thinking, copy and paste it.  But I'm not sure if that is quicker either.  In the really old days when the TM screens were different and there were no dots for seats, I had a programmable keyboard.  One keystroke and the whole TM form was filled in and submitted.

    It may be quicker to type the wrong code and hit "buy," because at that point the system lets you fix the error and won't let someone else buy. I'm skeptical that (a) it works, (b) it's actually quicker to type the wrong code than to get it right the first time

    Interesting. I'm guessing it won't accept a single digit - it prob needs three digits (or 4 for Amex)

    Remember in early February, when folks were wondering/complaining why F2F hadn't started yet? Can you imagine having done this F5 none sense dance for even longer than we have!?!?!

    A few Oak 1 100 level pairs across from the stage have popped up in the last hour. Nothing too great, but better than behind the stage. 111 row 26 on there now.
