Fan-to-Fan Ticket Exchange for Dummies

mklmg · February 2020

OK, so I missed out on the regular fan club drawing, didn't register for Verified Fan drawing. Question: Am I eligible for this Febuary 18th fan to fan sale without any further registering ?

I've been in Ten Club since 2000, Ticketmaster "fan" since 2005. I just called Ticketmaster & they said if I receive a code 24 or so hours before, I'm eligible. Still confused. If I didn't register for Verified Fan before 1/15/20 will I be eligible for the Ticketmaster Fan to Fan resale code ?

Thanks in advance !

Interesting. I don't believe that they've set out much information on how the exchange will work. Will it only be for Ten Club members? I wouldn't think so. Maybe those who missed out on the lottery would get first chance. Again I wouldn't think so.

Its likely that will know in the next week or so.

They've said its not just for 10C members, so anyone would be able to purchase tickets added to the Fan-to-Fan Exchange.

The lower level employees at TM are likely as confused as we are, having been told nothing, and having it all left to the imagination.

Directly from the 10c email: does not clarify if for "10c members" ONLY or for 10c AND general public. So I guess more clarification with the forthcoming news February 18.

Fan-To-Fan Face Value Ticket Exchange
For fans who are unable to use their tickets, Pearl Jam and Ticketmaster will offer North America’s first Fan-to-Fan Face Value Ticket Exchange, which will allow fans to resell their tickets for the price they paid (including all fees). The Fan-to-Fan Face Value Ticket Exchange will launch on February 18, 2020. There will be no additional fees charged to Exchange users for buying or selling tickets on the Exchange.

This same note is in the general sale notice.

Gern Blansten · February 2020

I'm thinking that sometime on the 18th you can go to TM and pull up the various venues to see what tickets are available. I assume that scalpers won't just gobble them all up due to the difficulty in reselling them but who knows.

I'm planning on listing two tickets that I bought through the verified fan sale since my 10c seats are better. I assume I just list them and then get some sort of notification when they sell.

I mean if there was a way to sell tickets for face value through this exchange to a *specific person* it would be ideal but I don't think that's how it works. Like if I have an extra pair for a show and would happily sell them at face to someone from the boards, I could just directly transfer to that e-mail for face value. But I suspect if you list through this exchange it's first come first serve for whoever wants them.

That would be ideal. But I assume it's just going to be live. As in, the minute you decide to transfer, they are then listed. And you'll get notified that they were purchased and the $$ will go back on the card you used to buy. Definitely clean and simple. It'll have to take some planning in order to coordinate a friend getting them. People are going to be living on the Baltimore page lol

I would think that regardless of who bought them to resell again the same rules apply to the tixs

yes...that's my understanding

incidental immortality · February 2020

I think the fan to fan exchange is being handled by the same company as the fan club lottery (I think that it was Ticketstoday). My experience has been that the Ticketmaster employees don't have any clue about what Ticketstoday is doing. So, its all speculation now. It would be surprising if it was early access or exclusively for Ten Club members. But we can always dream, right?

Guessing the exchange will have a lot available for Quebec, OKC, and OAK. Many circular letters.

For sure. For me it’s just another chance to strike out! Haha
lottery-verified-public-f2f and last but not least given to fly forum. How many strikes would that be! Lol. I’ve learned to embrace the hunt for msg and Baltimore. Tears may be shed when I get tickets.

I'd bet that the fan-to-fan ticket exchange for PJ is going to work very similar to the ticket exchange they already have set up for NBA, NHL, etc. No need for them to completely reinvent the wheel & design a totally different platform.

Since they (Ticketmaster) already know what we paid for the tix, it would be pretty easy for them to just modify their existing platform to cap the sale amount at the amount originally paid instead of allowing the seller to choose the amount.

You can still sell for face to someone on the forum here. You just have to meet up with them outside the show, as people have been doing for years with paper/will-call tickets.

Only if it's Denver or NY. If not, your buddy will have to list them on the exchange and then hope that you get them. Nobody knows how it's going to work, but will probably be a situation where you get online at the same time and hope you can snag them.

Kswheeler · February 2020

Ok thanks

Kswheeler · February 2020

Will he be able to walk in with us instead

CantKeepmedown · February 2020

Yeah, if he's going to be at the venue, that would certainly be the easier way to do it

Kswheeler · February 2020

Awesome thanks again

Sec 216 row 14 is what I'm going to be listing. We can try to coordinate as best as possible or you might find better seats in the exchange. I'm guessing there will be a decent selection.

Awesome. Right now I’m ready to take anything besides behind the stage but will definitely be on the fan to fan starting day one. Hope to see you at the show. 😊 thank you

Are we sure there won't be a delay between when the seller submits them and they show up on the exchange?
