It would be nice if they gave the option to lower them.

They don't give that option, definite flaw in my opinion, but face is face I guess in their eyes.  What I saw some people doing last tour that got stuck in that situation was working deals on the side to recover some of their money with people. Basically saying "hey, if you buy my ticket on TM for $800, I'll Venmo you $600 so you end up only paying $200 for the ticket, and I'm only out $600 instead of the full $800".  Complicated obviously, but I saw it happen.

Sucks it has to be this way, especially since TM has already been paid in full by the original purchaser. They shouldn’t have control over what someone does once they purchase it

Im sure TM worries that premium resales will undermine their premium inventory. Yes they have the first persons money, they want more new money.. not resale they does not benefit TM. 

I am frankly surprised they have left the high price F2F up and taken down their own premium.  The conspiracy theorist in my would expect the opposite.

Indy premiums - unless they were all purchased which is doubtful.

I think they were. Seemed like the listings decreased gradually. Chicago 2 is down to only 3 premiums

Chicago N1, Section 115, listed an hour or so ago.

Whoever that was, Thank you!
it appeared as I put ‘single’ ticket in for the second time during a refresh after sitting down from a long day & night. Scored that ticket! Love that seat!
thank you!

I mean.. they already do with the fan to fan… your options are already limited.

I was browsing through my tickets on ticketmaster and I've moved up with better tickets a few times on one of the shows.  One pair that sold quickly and I've been paid, still shows them listed for sale with an option to remove the listing. It doesn't show up of when you click on that show of course as an option to buy though.  If anyone on here happened to buy FTW1 and have this pair from the F2F that you bought on 7/25

Section 120, Row 5, Seat 6
Section 120, Row 5, Seat 5

I have concerns that ticketmaster messed something up.  If I hit the "remove listing" button, I'm curious if those tickets would be back in my account. I'm not going to hit that button, but I wanted to reach out here in case someone from the board bought those seats so we could figure out if that pair is in your account too.

Sounds like the app maybe hasn't refreshed your ticket holdings. Closing the app or signing out and back in might refresh it

Is TM crashing for anyone else?  Every single time.

No. If you are on the app, you may need to reinstall.

Woke up about an hour ago and decided to check the STP 1 page and right away a GA pair popped up but clicked on it and got the another fan beat me message. It was still showing up each time it would deny me so kept trying in vain knowing they were long gone but about 10 min later another single popped up and was finally able to get one. I checked again for a 2nd ticket about 15 minutes after that and yet another pair popped up which i also missed. I have a pair in floor right row 17 that I am going to put up for sale now that i upgraded. Feel free to send a PM if anyone is interested in setting up a timed drop

I've been having a weird problem with my iphone app where i will open the TM app and go to the PJ ticket page and while searching for tickets a notification bar will show up on top asking me to open in app as if i were in a browser and not already in the app. When I click the open app button it just refreshes the page and the box goes away. Not happening on my ipad though

I find that happens to me if I don’t close out the app when I am done using it. Next time I go to it it is like a browser. I just close it out and reopen it and it is fine.

Still looking to get out of 300 level for the Chicago shows if anybody is going to unload theirs and wants to arrange a transfer. 

Sent you a message 

My apologies, on the last post. Currently looking for 2 seats.

Thanks for reaching out SHZA

Dear Lurkers, 

No, I'm not looking to move any Chicago tickets. 

Love,

What kina tech do you all think scalpers use to go after GAs that may pop up in Chicago. If not tech, just 100's of impoverished children in 3rd world countries with quick reflexes? Anyone have contact info for those kids?
