Do us all a favor and be patient. I'm not saying these tickets will ever be cheap but I do expect 300, 400 and 500 level tickets to eventually sell for around $150 per. Be patient my friends, show is five months away and a lot can happen between now and then.

Agree.

Hopefully!

For everyone that is still looking for Wrigley tickets, the good news is that Stubhub inventory is continuing to creep up. Inventory has gone up about 300 tickets in the past few days alone. That indicates that few people are panicking and paying crazy prices. I would expect that as other dates are released, prices will eventually start coming down. Do us all a favor and be patient.

what is this 300 level that you speak of?

Does Wrigley just have 100, 200, 400, 500?

pretty much. stub hub shows the bleachers are 300's. so i guess that's the 300's...although they aren't sold.


just looked at inventory. right at 1400 available which is where it's been pretty much since tuesday.

i'm pretty confident prices will drop, but not as much as people think.

I'm going into Stubhub now, will create a shell listing, and will have actual sale numbers shortly.

Here are the current numbers: 2,189 tickets have been sold so far on Stubhub. The vast majority were sold last weekend by far, so a whole bunch of people panicked on day 1. Here are the first 20 sections with # sold, High and Low price sold:

Section # High Low
Field GA 23 $1,925 $750
A 16 $680 $500
J 14 $1,050 $585
K 18 $826 $499
P 2 $1,350 $1,350
T 4 $699 $499
U 28 $750 $389
V 2 $275 $275
AA 16 $649 $400
BB 14 $750 $199
CC 10 $825 $400
DD 15 $595 $300
14 2 $500 $500
16 2 $294 $294
17 4 $995 $995
24 6 $649 $649
25 8 $650 $395
27 6 $666 $400
36 4 $689 $644
38 2 $350 $350
101 20 $389 $299
102 18 $450 $149

I did take a shortcut, counted all the Field sections and the 10s and 100s. I counted half of the 200s, 400s, 500s (3rd base side) and doubled those.

Create a listing on Stubhub. Just pick one of the 500 sections, and "sell" a single ticket for $1000 so that no one buys it. Once complete, go into the YOUR ACCOUNT link and click on the COMPARE link. This allows you to look at any/every section and see sold prices, unsold prices, and price alerts (as a buyer, you can put in a price that once tickets are available for, Stubhub will send you an alert).

And keep in mind, a ton of people have done this, so there probably is less than 1,000 tickets really for sale, again with 2,200 already sold. So I'm starting to side with the folks saying that scalpers don't have a lot of the tickets. Or, all tickets haven't been released yet. Just think of the great press the band would get if in a month or so they announce "we held back 20,000 tickets to allow the scalpers to do their thing, and now we have a great method to get half the tickets in the hands of real fans...will call!"

which one is yours? i'm gonna buy it.

Go right ahead!! I'll buy a $250 ticket in the same section, closer to the stage, "upgrade" you as Stubhub allows, and make $750 for doing next to nothing and never really having my own ticket in hand!! :P

:fp:
