    Been refreshing Indy for the past 25 minutes, never saw them.

    Anyone noticing “face value exchange tickets” popping up for $500 at FW2 and Chicago 2? Those tickets were never available as premiums at those prices in those sections. Ever.

  • Just posted St. Paul N2 club level pair in Sec C22. Not the best seats but not nosebleeds either.......
    Upgraded to GA via a friend, so I won't need these.

    I think some of the real fan to fan pros are still looking for tickets. In time, once they get theirs, timed drops might become a little easier. Maybe.

    Had those Indy in section G that popped up a bit ago. They dropped as soon as I loaded the page, so I had them instantly. And I cruised through the next page because I knew well enough. Got the confirmation text from my credit card, and then bam: error code. I was flagged as a bot.

    Error code means we are flagged as a bot or that someone else got them??

    I’m not sure if there are different error codes, but after the error code, a page from LiveNation came up and said my activity was suspicious so I had been flagged as a bot lol. So frustrating as that is the first time I had seen seats come up—besides the $800+ ones.

    That sucks.They shouldn't make us fight like a pack of animals to get tickets, and then flag us as bots for going too fast. I wish that once you carted the tickets you had a second to at least put in your information. But the fight is to the end.

    Agree completely. I was only able to go that fast because I had tried and failed a few other times for Chicago shows. So by this attempt, I was able to punch everything in very quickly. I’m sure it was the fact that the seats became available AS SOON as I checked TM. It would’ve been like using one of those bots/apps that check certain websites for you every 10 seconds or so for changes in the code that allow you to get tickets or posters or something that drops randomly. It was just a coincidence though that they dropped right when I logged in. It sucks because they were pretty good seats.

    How do you know they dropped right when you logged in? Sold tickets will sometimes reappear for a few minutes after they're gone

    No it should be like Thunderdome. 2 PJ fans enter 1 PJ fan leaves.

    In my experience, usually when that happens you get "another fan beat you to it". It doesn't let you go as far as putting in your information. When I get the straight up error message it is often after I put in my ccv code and try to purchase. But who knows at this point?

    That's true. So I guess you're only supposed to get to that last page if no one has completed checkout yet
