    Not to sound douchy, but this is all bringing me back to when I needed to frantically hit refresh on StubHub a decade ago praying that someone posted tickets for something less than like 2.5- 3X face in order to be able to afford to go to the shows I didn't win 10C seats for.

    I still remember landing 2 for Night 2 in Brooklyn in 2012 like 3 hours before the show for $75 each and pretty much having an aneurysm.

    I remember now why I hated that shit.  This blllllooooows.
    Were you the one that has access to Stubhub past sales info?

    Is there going to be more supply the week of the concert when people really know their plans and if things come up sell their tickets.  It seems like the dribs and drabs we are seeing now is just one off selling.

    Of all the options thrown out so far, I like the second random lotto the best.  

    If this is all gonna be based on luck, then let's keep the train going all the way to the station.

    Hold back all the F2F tickets and let 10C members that don't have tickets for those shows register for a Last Chance Saloon lotto for them.

    Your point about them not realizing this was gonna become an OCD F5 bonanza for lunatics is exactly correct.  They had no idea this was gonna become an OCD F5 bonanza for lunatics, which is exactly what it has now become for OCD lunatics, even thought it's not really engineered for that based on the amount of inventory available.

    If they are not gonna allow a secondary market the best thing they can do is just let fate decide who gets all the tickets, and not who is faster at entering their 3 digit CC code.
    I like that idea too 😉

    I would ignore the 1st 2 sales as there is a snowballs chance in hell the seller comes through on those.

    $1k before fees on the low end, $2,450 before fees on the high, with an average price of bend over and take it like the slut that you are.

    Thanks again and how does a seller not come through after a sale? Wouldn’t he get penalized or something?

    No way those Floor GA under 1K ever happen. If the sellers ever had the tickets to begin with, SH will let them off the hook in order to relist at a higher price (SH will collect a higher commission).

    Probably sitting at or near 1000 refreshes today via phone or laptop. 

    I just realized that I’m the idiot in this relationship. 

    Good luck to those of you with the stamina and willpower to keep this up. I’m done.  Might try a little when I’m sitting down and doing my best thinking but I got nothing done today and never got close to a ticket.  

    Time to just be thankful for what I did get and live my life!

    It's sort of a vague hope...like winning the actual lottery
