Fuck Ticketmaster. I purchased tickets for St. Louis two fucking years ago not knowing the tour was going to be fucking postponed and now I’m going to have to fucking eat the cost of them because I can’t fucking sell them on fan2fan. Fuck Ticketmaster and Pearl Jam for allowing this to fucking happen. I’m so Goddamn mad right fucking now. This is fucking bullshit! 

And before anyone fucking comes at me about Pearl Jam I’ve been a 10 club member since 2000. I’ve spent way more time, effort and money on them than that have to any of their fans.

    yeah cuz this sounds like a PJ issue...

    It does remind me of the time I bought extra tix to improve my view and couldn't sell off the tix I had originally purchased. I should have quit 10C at that time.

    Why can't you sell them on fan to fan?

    F2F has been unavailable to sell/buy since yesterday. Everyone is assuming it's because Ticketmaster decided to fuck everyone over and is just sitting back laughing.

    Oh I didn't know that.  If that is the case, then I understand why the op is so mad.

  • Have a little optimism that they are having issues and will get it fixed, they still have a week to clean it up for you to sell them.

    I wouldn't flip out about St Louis yet. It could still come back up. People who ate Toronto tickets last night got screwed.

    I hear ya!

    I tried selling an extra Camden to a member here via organized F2F drop and they had an issue with payment so they asked that I remove the listing which I did some it wasn’t grabbed by someone else.

    only issue is now the ticket shows as “listing pending” in my app so I don’t even have access to the barcode.

    Did a chat w/ TM & of course can only get a robot w/ an automated response

    👆this.

    Placing bets that they'll have it up soon enough - at least MSG allows transfers so it'd be a surprise if it's not working again before Camden. But yeah, even a "F2F is down" message on Ticketmaster would've been appropriate.

    That sucks, maybe see if anyone on the boards is interested in buying them, the night of the show give them your ticketmaster login credentials and let them use the tickets for the show, then you can change your password. I can't think of any other way to do it, good luck. 
  • Box office at scotiabank last night said it was pearl jam’s team who made the decision. Who knows. It is all a blame game and we are just caught in the crossfire. I also don’t think it is fair to blame someone who is now trying to sell the tickets. Nobody knows what is going on in their life. Heck, I was completely healthy up until a few weeks ago before I got rushed to hospital and ended up in icu having to stay 7 days

    Seriously? Shit happens and no one can predict what could happen the week, month or day of show. People bought these thinking they can sell them f2f.

    That’s not a fair take on the situation.  People s plans change. Life happens.  Msg was going to be my 60th show and then I tested positive for Covid.  I ve never heard of a cut off to sell tickets.   I mean you can buy baseball tickets after first pitch lol.

    Are people not supposed to be complaining about the current situation?

    Why did people have to eat Toronto tickets last night?

    Also, kind of why I don't like the whole non-transferrable thing. I get they are trying to limit scalpers. But if its my ticket, I should be able to sell it the way I want. Doesn't make sense to turn off F2F shortly before the show, I'd be pissed if I hung on to tickets hoping I'd be able to make it. Then learn I couldn't even try to sell them. Should just be able to transfer on your own if that is the case. 
  • If this is not corrected it is ridiculous.  I wonder what the fine print says.  I am sure lawyers have ok’d it.

    Yea. This is bs  Reeves.  I’m with you. Ignore the people that won’t let you vent.  It’s legit issue.

    Is it because the 120 dollar or so tickets are being resold for 1800+?
