    Just saw someone grabbed front row for $235 for Inglewood on Facebook. Why are they releasing these seats a half hour after the sale at 10C pricing? Very odd. 
    The WC on that seat makes me think it was a wheelchair seat.
    Just noticed that too good point.

    There is no way they they are going to make you sell your ticket for less than what you paid for on TM. If you paid $600 Platinum price you should be able to sell it for that on F2F. No higher. But you may have a problem finding another sucker, I mean customer, to take them off your hands. Its not like you can just put them back to TM.

    People were complaining about $200 tickets and bought tickets for $600 or higher. So it won't be that hard

  • So, Im looking for either NY show. But, because it being in NY, there won't be anything on F2F because scalping is legal in this state. Because scalping is legal, my only option is to scour secondary market and hope for the best. I dont have the luxury of waiting until 11th hour, not with kids schedule, some travel and work etc etc, so just trying to map out my best path forward here. 

    Do I have this right?

    Basically yes, but the one thing I’d add is you can keep an eye on the Given To Fly forum, to see if anyone makes any NYC tickets available over there. Lower probability than the secondary market but probably better pricing. 

    Also, if the spring 2020 F2F experience is any indication, you’re better off with the scalpers.

    so I was shut out for both san diego and LA. But, on ticketmaster website there are plenty of tickets for sale for LA. More than 10 club price, but available. Who is selling these tickets? If public sale is tomorrow how am I able to buy now? confused

    WTF……Why would they charge me for a commemorative ticket if I did not get tickets to a show?  Figured it would only be part of getting actual tickets?  
    I tried mentioning this yesterday with an included screen shot. Nobody replied so I figured Iist have just been overlooking something. That's why so many peoples account read: "Request Received" 

    Now, I'm not even complaining about the expensive tickets. If he wants to price himself out the way many legacy acts do, that is his right. It is up to us as consumers to decide if that is how we want to spend our money or not. But billing out a $10 charge for something people clearly only want if they actually get tickets to the show is shady used car salesmen nonsense.


    **EDIT: I did just log back into this and it was the same as shown above. I checked my credit card and it had not yet been charged either. There was an option for me to cancel it, so I should be good. Though had I not done so when I did, I likely would have had to eat that money. It just seems like a sneaky way to make a few bucks of likely several thousand people. Most would likely view it as not enough money to spend the effort complaining and so it adds up.

  • This process leaves a lot to be desired.  I was able to get something half decent (nothing special) in the verified for a normal price but it was an ordeal.  The prices changing every few seconds, the tickets crashing out of the cart, the emotional swings, etc.  And of course, the usual issue with Covid cancellation risk.  It does take some of the fun out of it, but Ed is still Ed.

    I really hope covid doesn't cause me a problem.. lol.  I completely blew through the checkout screen hoping the system wouldn't glitch or something.  I complete missed the part about not being able to put the platinum tickets on F2F at the face value you paid.. sigh..  Will lose a mint if the border tightens up.
    Wait, what!?  I have never bought a platinum ticket, but any chance you have a screenshot/the text of this @Zod ?  What a bunch of horseshit, cuz you know they're gonna re-list them for the platinum price again!


    I didn't see it first hand.  I picked it up from someone else post.  I'm hoping they misread it.  I breezed pretty quickly through the checkout process, given the challenges of trying to check out a pair.

    btw, whatever happened to "best available"?  Why did TM make the switch to picking your tickets.  It doesn't work that great for an initial onsale.

    Not sure why it would take this long when the shows are sold out and all seats have been allocated.
