    Are they 10C tickets? You can sell to whoever you want, but face value only.

    Are they non-10C tickets? You can put them on StubHub or the Ticketmaster app. Because you can legally sell non-10C for whatever you want, I'd start really high. Every few weeks, lower the price just a small bit. They'll eventually sell.

    You'll have zero problem selling them, especially for face value. For this tour, Chicago is *the* big stop.
    They are 10 Club tickets.  Here's what I was trying to ask... If I put them on Fan-to-Fan, how do I know they get to a deserving fan and not somebody that's going to turn around and sell them for a big profit?  I didn't clearly understand what the Pearl Jam camp wants with getting rid of tickets for the Illinois shows.

    I guess I'm fine working out a deal (face value of course) with a Ten Clubber... it would just take coordination for me to get paid (I have PayPal?) and them to receive the tickets (me transferring to their Ticketmaster account?).  I've had a few people reach out already.

    Note: I'm still trying to figure out if a 4th show in 8 days is feasible/manageable.  :|
    You do not know if someone buying it on fan to fan will flip them or not

    If you are in talks with people here and trust the buyer then have them paypal you the money and transfer the tickets. Takes less than 2 minutes to do.

    Pretty sure you could even sell 10club on stubhub, frowned upon for sure but doable.
    I'm not going to risk membership by trying to turn a profit... I was just hesitant to release them back to Ticketmaster if the scalpers are going to be swooping up any tickets on there and re-selling at a profit.  Is Fan-to-Fan just 10 Club members?

    In theory though, you could sell your CHI tickets to a "fan" here for face value. They could then turn around and list on Stubhub and flip the tickets for $$$. The issue here is that if the Ten Club sees the fan club tickets being relisted on Stubhub at an inflated price, they're only going to know the seats as being assigned to you.

    No - F2F is open to anybody.

    I'd say the best way to get rid of tickets is to download them into your wallet app. Lock your phone. Throw it into the river.

    I've wondered about that too. But StubHub doesn't show you the exact seat until you buy though I think.
    But all the GA tickets, those were only 10c right? SO every one of those is a 10c flip. Would they have to buy it in order to track it?

    You bring up valid points on the specifics of the seat locations. Stubhub used to give the specific seat numbers and no longer do. I'd only be speculating on whether or not they (10 Club) would have buy the ticket to find you. It would appear that way but I have no way of knowing for certain.

    Yes - GA were Ten Club only. A lot of those listings are sites like Stubhub, etc. are speculators. They'll throw a crazy price up there, hope someone pays that crazy price and then they'll have until the day before the show to find a ticket at a lower price and make the spread on difference.

    Sell/transfer them to friends. I put out a feeler to all my friends on FB pre reassignment to see if anyone was interested. Both sold in a day without them even knowing the seat location.

    Is that the policy of stub? The seller has until the day before a show to transfer a ticket? I'd be pissed if I bought what I thought were awesome seats, only to find out the day before the show they never had them. Seems hard to believe there isn't a time frame, like 72 hours, to transfer tickets or the order gets canceled.

    Sorry for my ignorance on this, but after you sell to whomever you want at face value, how do you get the tickets into said persons hands? 

    You transfer them directly from your Ticketmaster account. Only works for Chicago on this tour due to Illinois state law. 
    Thank you, transfer only works for the Chicago show, therein lies my confusion.  The transfer option is not available for Texas shows.

    Yeah...in some instances I believe Stubhub allows up to 10:00 AM on the day of the event for the seller to deliver the tickets. I think it's primarily driven by the date the seller claims they'll have the tickets "in hand"
