Verified Fan Presale Strategery Thread

Anyone receive codes for both MSG and Baltimore? I am quite certain put in for both and only received an MSG code which I am trying to reconcile with the language used in the email "receive a code for each show registered for".  Side-note, first selection was MSG followed by Baltimore.

I could have swore I did the same but only got the email for MSG

I had 3 codes in my email. Two for Canada and 1 for Baltimore. Didn’t put in for any others if that helps.

I am quite certain I registered for Nashville and Baltimore but I only got a code for Nashville. I was wondering the same thing.

Reading through this people are gonna buy tickets that they can do shit with thinking they can trade them.  

People won't be able to trade them to whoever they want but they'd still be able to at least get the money back if can't use the tickets via the fan to fan exchange. Directly from my Verified Fan email:

"For fans that cannot use the tickets they have purchased, Pearl Jam and Ticketmaster will offer a Fan-to-Fan Face Value Ticket Exchange* beginning February 18. There will be no additional fees charged to Exchange users for buying or selling tickets on the Exchange."

This is exactly what I was saying. I have zero experience with the fan to fan exchange or whatever the F the market square/Kroger/piggly wiggly ticket exchange thing is. You don’t lose money but you can pick the better seats and trade the others at same value to another fan who missed out.  

So with all this fan to fan resale talk, could a non 10C member grab the 10C tickets if I chose to post them?

I got TC tix for Baltimore and won verified presale opp for Baltimore. I also registered for MSG and Nashville for both TC and TM and didn’t get a code. Bizarre process. 

I am very fortunate to have received a code for Toronto and Hamilton after already receiving Reserved seats for those two same shows in the 10C presale --- however the timing of telling 10C members where their seats are located AFTER the TM onsales makes it very hard to know what to do if decent tickets appear in the presale which may be way better than the location of the 10C tickets you may be receiving a week later (for example, if I get "seats" on the floors behind the GA's they are basically useless to me for seeing anything hence why I "request" reserved seats but there is always a risk I will get those kind of (back of the floor) tickets -- or potentially high rows in the upper level as we have been told that 10C seats will be further back than in the past).  I know one can always lay out the extra $300C or so for a pair on Thursday or Friday and then resell the "worse" pair on the TM exchange in February but it definitely is a cumbersome process especially if the seats you get from 10C are "bad" ones which may be tougher to get rid of on the exchange when all tickets are priced the same amount -- my bet is getting rid of "bad" seats for some shows that aren't MSG or Baltimore won't get snapped up right away on the exchange as people will wait to hope better ones appear for the same amount all the way until the day or so before the show (as I can't even sell my tickets for less than face value to try to get rid of them if they happen to be not so great ones). In previous iterations I know that 10C members did not find out about their tickets until the day of the show, but at least any others that were purchased on TM could be transferred to other members easily or even the hard copy 10C tickets could be exchanged with someone on the day of the show at the venue in a much easier process than now which would require you to enter with the other parties even if you aren't going to the show with them per se.  I know it's all "first world" problems as all of this stuff are luxuries and not necessities, but for all the "improvements" they have apparently made in the system, there are still some obvious issues that will arise using this methodology of ticket distribution.....

I don’t think you’ll have a hard time reselling in February. The rate it’s going right now, I’ll buy em.

So many questions, so few brain cells 

Hypothetically, say I already have 2 x 10c tix to Hamilton (hopefully GA) and I buy 2 VF tix with my code tomorrow....I should be able to walk in with 3 other people right? 2 of us go to the 10c seats/GA  and 2 go to the VF seats (with screenshots I guess once in). What about giving my TM log in to someone else to use the VF tix (family, no account security concerns). Would separate entries on same account get flagged?

Got a code for Nashville but already have 10c tickets for Nashville. 

Anyone willing to trade my 2 Nashville verified tickets for 2 Baltimore or St Louis verified tickets?

YOU CANNOT TRADE TICKETS IT IS LITERALLY WHAT NON-TRANSFERABLE MEANS WHY CANT PEOPLE READ 

IM NOT ASKING TO TRADE TICKETS THROUGH TM. LOOKING FOR GOOD FAITH PJAMMERS TO MEET AT SHOWS.
