    Never thought about it that way - these brokers having memberships to get tix. makes tons of sense for them - but never thought about it that way. Hope you dont think i am trying to be a snitch - it honestly was just curiosity how 10c could possibly police it.
    Thanks for the insight.
    Its just my opinion, and many others here will disagree with me. But why should tickets be viewed any different from other merchandise? Maybe I am wrong, I dont know.

    People here are FURIOUS that they were shut out the last 3 weeks. I have witnessed one person here, basically have a Complete Nervous Breakdown, due to the fact he doesnt have tickets. The behavior here over the last 3 weeks has been sad, comical, and flat out scary.

    And what does that have to do with your thread?
    Nothing. I just feel like talking!

    I agree with you - it makes sense.

    there was a post going earlier about people buying tix during the public sale and reselling them for a profit - i honeslty dont have a poblem with it - its how the system works now. If you were able to buy a Television for $100 from person A and knew for a fact you could turn and sell that TV to person B down the road for $200 - why wouldnt you? It sucks for people who have to pay the inflated prices - but its just how it is.

    I like that 10C tries to control the mark up on tix for it smembers and does all they do to keep our price reasonable - but they can only do so much.

    I once had an extra pair of 10c tickets for the 3rd row on the floor and couldn't sell them - finally got 1/2 of face for them - so you never know!

    Please do not hesitate to PM me if you ever face this predicament again. :D

    Because the broker will be in the 10club line to get his tickets on the 19th, just like the rest of us.
    OR the 10club member will be in line, just like the rest of us.

    Its been going on for years.

    And as silly as this sounds, for all we know, if it is a 10club member selling his 10club seats? Well, shame on them. But you never know, maybe that profit is buying food for the family, maybe is is helping making a mortgage payment, or maybe it is used for medical bills. I realize this is a stretch, but you never know.

    well..always detail play it role..
    did this listed as 10c tix-fan club ?no..
    did u see the seller names or other itemshe sellingt ?he sells only tix
    did u see the way they ship??
    did u see when this ended??before public sale starts..

    means those are 10c tix cos all GA is 10c or someone bought not legit tix..

    well..my opinion is someone paid 1941 $ for not GA tix

    would wristbands help instead of using paper tickets?
    did you see me? i saw you.

    And thats why I couldnt just snitch, or rat out, every single stub hub listing I see, that might be a 10club member. You just never really know the situation. I figure let the 10club handle their own business.

    I hope they immediately put a wrist band on the person picking up the Ga ticket from the 10c. That way the best the scalper can do is sell one ticket

    Problem solved.
    Brokers would fucking flip the fuck out, when they picked up their tickets.

    Simple solution.

    I got a wristband at PJ20 and at United Center in 06. Wristbands wont help scalping. It is just to stop non 10club scum ;) from getting in our section. All a scalper would need is a pair of scissors and scotch tape.
    Forced to endure, what I cannot forgive.

    Tape on the wristband?
    Any type of damage to wristband indicating foul play?
    You are not admitted to show.
    The End

    Or when you pick up your wristband, you can have a micro-chip inserted in to your neck?
