Let me get this straight. Upgrading and selling your old tickets for facevalue is a dick move but having scalpers scoop up hundreds of tickets and marking them up substantially is ok just so you can have access to them? Man what a take.

well yes upgrading lowers someone's chances of getting tickets in that moment. is this hard to understand?

and i know it's for charity and it's great but those Vitology tickets are far more expensive than any scalper cost i've ever paid.

but hey that's just my take

Again you are ok with scalpers scooping up tickets so you can have access to them at a premium price. Do you not understand that these scalpers are now lowering the chances of someone else getting tickets in that moment? What do charity tickets have to do with anything we are talking about here?

congrats, now get back in and try to upgrade lol

I didnt even notice it was a single. I will most likely keep trying for a pair and sell this later if necessary. Maybe not as hyper aggressively though. Good luck to all.

so there are people here who are trying to upgrade their seats when seats become available while so many others are trying to just get into these shows? kind of a dick move in my opinion.

why? If I upgrade my seats, I would then drop my old seats to the F2F

because you are unnecessarily causing extra traffic for the original tickets when they are put up. maybe you disagree and that's fine. my opinion is my opinion.

I have two singles in different rows and want my husband and me to sit together. Of course I'm going to try to upgrade.

Honestly? I would not put this in the same category as "upgrading". SP1984 and I joked about getting separate singles, but it's just not as much fun going alone. Best of luck to you!

Thanks. I am thrilled to just be in the building and know how fortunate we are. Losing out on 5 pair I've had in my cart so far has really sucked, but it appears they are going to people here, so I'm happy for them. Not gonna give up hope.

How far apart are your tickets?

We're actually in the same section, just a few rows apart, so it's not awful. But it's not the same as sitting next to each other like we have at 46 PJ shows so far. If it happens, great! If not, we're in the building and I am grateful.

Let me get this straight. Upgrading and selling your old tickets for facevalue is a dick move but having scalpers scoop up hundreds of tickets and marking them up substantially is ok just so you can have access to them? Man what a take.

well yes upgrading lowers someone's chances of getting tickets in that moment. is this hard to understand?

and i know it's for charity and it's great but those Vitology tickets are far more expensive than any scalper cost i've ever paid.

but hey that's just my take

Again you are ok with scalpers scooping up tickets so you can have access to them at a premium price. Do you not understand that these scalpers are now lowering the chances of someone else getting tickets in that moment? What do charity tickets have to do with anything we are talking about here?

you can argue the system PJ is using is great because more so called 'real fans' are getting in the building but don't equate that with more people having access. they are limiting access to a select group of people. No one here has given me a good answer for this one...are you willing to join the fan club of every band you want to see for access to tickets if this becomes the industry standard? because if this PJ model becomes the industry standard your access to tickets is going to be severely restricted. i don't think this is even up for debate.

It already IS the industry standard. Try getting decent seats to any popular show without being part of one of the many many presales - fan clubs, credit cards, etc etc. By the time the general public onsale happens, the available tickets are scarce and usually the worst in the house. Gone are the days when you can just queue up at 10am on friday and get lucky.
