My # is around 650*** but my ten club tickets have always been incredible. My seat for chi N1 is embarrassing with what I paid

They’re reassigning seats because tm screwed up and didn’t factor in seniority with seat assignments.

160ish/ticket

I paid $304 for two tickets for a show in 2022; so it's not an outrageous increase.  But every increase, whether it be milk, eggs, gas . . .concert tickets, etc. it all adds up.  Unless you are well off, all these price increases affect the pocketbook, so to speak.  You have to prioritize where you are willing to spend the money.  One day it will affect the concert going audience. I personally will no longer buy PJ tickets unless I win the lottery.  I refuse to suffer the Ticketmaster BS ever again.

How many rant threads do you think there will be when 1/2 the reassignments are downgrades?

A fee for each night of a show

$139,000,000 is a lot of dynamic pricing

Still really good seats for a concert, I'd be quite happy if I got those.

For a 30+ year band, I'd say $160 is a reasonable price. I think what makes it "difficult" is how fortunate we have been in the past when it comes to pricing. Cost wise - and this was already mentioned - it's the travel, hotel, food and beverage that I endulge in, and merch I don't need that hits the wallet harder.

I'm torn on this.

$160 for GA is a steal.

$160 for upper deck seats probably is too given what we see in some other sales. But...I would have never bought either of the Chicago pairs I'm now saddled with if I didn't believe my 10c seats were going to be better than this. I certainly wouldn't have looked on a map and purchased them, even if they were the last seats available. 

Lesson learned.

I have the worst seats in the united center.  I wouldve A) never bought these seats and never paid the same that a person in the pit paid for them.

Suppose things could have been a lot worse…

After seeing the Aerosmith prices this morning, it really could have been a lot worse.
