    We can only wait and see.  Good luck to you.  I am trying for two at MSG and I am sure tons of others will be trying for that date too.
    I was under the impression that MSG was not part of this, since those can be resold at a premium.  Is anyone sure?

    As others have said, I think it's going to be a right place, right time type of scenario for scoring tickets rather than getting there right when the exchange opens for the simple reason that it really depends on when people with extras put their tickets up. While people with extras would obviously want to exchange/move those tickets sooner rather than later, I highly doubt that those people are chomping at the bit to list them right at 10. I could obviously be completely wrong but I just imagine it being more a case where people list their extras when they get around to it over the first day or two.
    I am posting my two T.O. tix as soon as the exchange opens. I can't use them so I want to be rid of them a.s.a.p. to some lucky fan.

    And just like that, while refreshing to see if the F2F exchange opens up now, Superblood Wolfmoon drops.  There’s now a soundtrack to what’s likely to be a demented morning on tm.

  • I wanted GA tix for OKC, none were available so I went ahead and got 4 seats.  I believe 4 is the limit.  So if I find 2 GA tix on the exchange will I be allowed to buy them or do I have to take the risk of listing & selling 2 of the seats I already have first?

    Nope. You are not allowed  to buy first. You will get in trouble

    This is nothing to worry about. Happens to me frequently. You just get presented with a captcha and then you’re good to go.

    Your using the TM app?  This will happen all day if you’re searching for tickets like I am. Web site doesn’t seem to do this.

    A month after tickets were distributed and it's now the day of the F2F sale at almost 8AM, no one has a clue when it starts, how it is going to function, or granted any time for people to upload any tickets they want to sell.

    Are they actively trying to make this as difficult and chaotic as possible?

    Try the reset button instead of refreshing if the show you are looking at is not sold out. If sold out not sure the fix.

    I was feeling the same way as of yesterday, but I’ve come around to thinking that they (meaning Ticketmaster and the club) don’t see this the same way we do. People on this forum are looking at this like it’s a ticket drop and so we think it should be handled the same way in terms of setting & communicating clearly rules and lots of details. From anyone else’s perspective it’s just a convenient feature they’re offering to people who get stuck with tickets they can’t use, and with over a month to go until the shows there’s really no stress/rush that should be involved. 

    In other words, it’s not that they’re trying to make this as difficult and chaotic as possible, it’s that they just have a totally different idea about what “this” is.
