    for the last tour I bought and sold tickets through F2F. We would set up a random time, like say 9:43 pm, usually later in the evening, and it worked every time. If you are the buyer it usually takes a couple minutes for the tickets to show up, but you are there waiting, refreshing and bam! there they are, click and buy, done deal.

    Anyone know If I buy transferable Chicago tickets from someone do the tickets stay transferable or just 1 time?

    Also, watch the list of tickets on the right, they will pop-up there first. If you watch the map, they will be gone before you see them.

    Does anybody know if the Premium seats ever drop in price closer to the show time?

    Yes they do. Usually a few days prior of the show.

    Last year I had a very interesting experience on a timed drop purchase for a popular show.  At the exact instant that the timed drop I was buying was posted, another buyer and seller had arranged their timed drop and 4 tickets appeared instead of 2.  I actually could have scooped the other set by this coincidence but I liked the set that I was trying to buy better.  At least based on a split second decision.  It was quite the coincidence.

    Frustrating to have it up and down. No idea when I should be wasting my time trying to get Indy tix! ;)

    Did the amount of tickets dropping get higher in the days and week or so before a show? I wasn't paying close attention to F2F last time. I imagine things come up and people sell tickets right before the show, no? Trying not to stress about Indy!

    The week before the show will be busiest. That’s when you’ll see the most action on F2F.

     That's what I'm hoping. Bought St.Paul night 2 but really want to do both, have to wait till the UPS contract is resolved by August 1st. Otherwise I need the extra cash for the strike

    Wonder if they shut it off again in an effort to sell Premium tickets

    Demand for this tour already seemed down compared to last year.  St Paul and both Texas cities had multiple front of stage Fan 2 Fan pairs up for grabs.

    Premium tickets are also priced much lower than the 2022 tour.  

    Maybe a sign of the times….

    that is exactly what they did... Create demand, create Urgency, be the only tickets available, ive seen at least 6 sold from one Ft worth show, which is what 4500, which is the equivalent of 35 tickets at face.. I might add they make zero money on F2F... ( I think that will change next time)

    Planning on listing a pair in Sec 115, Row 3 for St. Paul Night 1 this AM.  Just waiting on confirmation that my buddy's GA are avail.  Contact me if you want me to coordinate the drop (although it seems F2F still down).
    Pm sent. I’d like to coordinate a drop if possible…

    I plan to put up my extra pairs for Austin some time today:
    9/18: FLR5, row 13
    9/19: FLR2, row 3
    I'll post again with a few minutes heads up once I see the F2F option is available.
    Got a time? I’d love to try and snag the 9/18. 
    and I would love those 9/19 ... giving a time likely wont matter, they will be gone in 30 seconds and just depends on where you are in the refresh cycle and check out speed to get them 
    Given a time does help. Well, It did for me last Tour. We set it up for Late night.
    yeah, this is what i would love to do. Meet at an odd time and give it a shot. Not 100% guaranteed, but better than refreshing 6,000 times a day.

    Be careful with your timed drops. There's always snipers lurking, waiting to pick you off.

    Also there is a Downtime cycle overnight, I have seen the shows offline from 2am - to 3 or so, there are times where you will drop them and they wont show up for considerable time.

    No. I'm pretty sure they intentionally took it down until they unload more inventory. I was actually surprised it started as early as it did. When they said May, I didn't expect to see anything until the end of the month.

    now it's been up for 5 minutes in may they can say they kept their word and not reopen it until 2 weeks before the tour :)

    At least assuming things go like they did last year, you should have no problem picking up a ticket the week before the show on F2F. Good luck with the contract negotiation!

    Don’t even sweat over anything this week. Right now everyone without tickets is in panic mode and the supply is low. 
    In a month, I bet tickets pop up at random and only increase in frequency until September. If you’re diligent, you’ll be more than pleased with what you snag.

    I’m mostly here to say that your board name is incredible, definitely my favorite. 

    To keep this post relevant, I definitely bought and sold for Camden, coordinated times and everything worked out. All one needs is patience and to be grateful for how kind most people on this board are.

    I'm hoping to get 2 standard price tickets to Indy (anywhere in the venue). If anyone is looking to post those on F2F, let me know if you'd be willing to coordinate a drop time at your convenience.

    it makes better sense to turn it on now, let the churn go and it will die out making people who didnt get any to bite the bullet and go premium... Or that is why they turned it on for day, make people think all the F2F are sold..
