    i did a coordinated drop this morning early for Vegas. It took about 10 or 15 minutes but it worked!

    So in fan 2 fan you can literally buy as many tickets as you want as long as you resell them? Like buy 2 in section 200, then you see another 2 in 115 and buy then sell section 200 etc etc.  
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    Yes

    You don't even need to sell them. You can have 1000 tickets if you want. They only limit standard tickets to 4.

    Did the tickets drop pretty close to the time you guys agree to do drop?

    Ok so I’m going to ask the newbie stupid question of the day. If we can “transfer” our tickets to a friend, why can’t we find fellow 10c members to transfer them to as a private sell???? Yeah one is on the hook to pay and one is on the hook to transfer- it’s a trust thing I get it. But this would sure make things easier. Maybe open up a thread dedicated to this if someone figures it out. And if someone can figure it out we wouldn’t be waiting on TM to pay you in 8-12 days/weeks…. Just thinking aloud as I’ve never been thru this before because I hate TM and the way they do business. Honestly thought PJ was still better than this fiasco but guess I was wrong. Joined yall in November last year so please forgive any ignorance on how this works.

    You cannot transfer to a friend

    I think the majority of listings posted immediately after F2F opened were purchased by fans as opposed to bots. I’ve looked over some of the scalper inventory, sure they share resources, but still I haven’t seen my various pairs listed and no one in their right mind would have paid those prices at this point regardless given what else remains available. Once word got out a few hours later or the next day it’s game over. 

    If you’re chasing reserves specifically I wouldn’t play the upgrade game but that’s just me. More than some fans have secured face value reserves far closer than previously held upgrades would have placed them a week before the show. This is an awkwardly timed world tour, in many ways, and plenty will change their minds or have their options diminish for a trip forcing a sale. FOMO should only exist for entry but you’ll be in the venue and you won’t be upper bowl so just put that weight down and take a deep breath.

    Yes bots are in play but it’s a funny thing. I woke up at 3:00am one Saturday morning last year when our son climbed into bed and kicked me away. He took over my space so I sat up and started playing on F2F. By 3:15am I landed a GA pair for one of the St Paul shows. This was in June (I remember because it was my birthday and I didn’t even get to sleep in lol) and the shows were obviously a couple of months away but still if a bot was active there’s no way I would have landed those especially considering I wasn’t moving at hyper speed given the hour.
    There still needs to be a human to check out the tickets. 

    They have not figured out yet as far as I know how to write something that tells the bots to collect all of the good tickets like you would see on a VF sale and checkout out on its own. VF has the luxury of holding the tickets too making it much easier.  
    As far as you know. This sounds like no human needed unless they're employing around the clock staff

    For MSG and Chicago you can transfer to whomever you want. However, for the rest of the shows you can't. NY and IL have laws against preventing transfers - so your tickets must be to one of those shows.

    they were sec 21, night 2, not bad. Sold them to a member here. We texted each other a few minutes before the agreed time, I hit the sell button on the agreed minute and we waited about 10 or 15 minutes and they came up. He was a little worried that someone else got them because it was taking longer than we thought. But he nailed it! We decided to go early. I got up at 3 am my time, 6 am his. Thats what you have to do.

    The resale market for MSG makes it a mess.  In the future people are just going to put in for MSG tickets even if they don’t plan on going and fund their whole tour.

    Also looking for MSG N2. Is it a fools errand to go to the venue the night of the show and wait until the prices drop on the second hand ticket sites right before they hit the stage? I’ve seen dramatic price drops the hour or moments before the band goes on stage.

    I tried doing coordinated drop with someone last night for Baltimore tickets.  I submitted them for posting.  About 2 mins later got email that they were actively listed.  We actually saw them show up on TM few minutes later, but by the time the intended receiver was able to add them to cart and check out they were already gone.

    Also looking for MSG N2. Is it a fools errand to go to the venue the night of the show and wait until the prices drop on the second hand ticket sites right before they hit the stage? I’ve seen dramatic price drops the hour or moments before the band goes on stage.
    If you are already in NYC it could be worth it. My friend did that for the Cure. She missed the first song but got a decent ticket for around $20.

    Did that for Taylor Swift. Drove to KC and parked. After the opening act started tickets were plummeting. Still paid a little more than $20 :)

    Just out of curiosity, do you know at what point are the tickets no longer available to be purchased for an event on a site? Once the headliner starts or after a certain time past the announced starting time of the show?
