Why don't Ten Club members get the best seats? Despite Best Seat?

in The Porch
I am totally pissed off. As I have done for years, I bought my tickets via the Early Fan Account as best seats. And I got the worst seats on the very outside of the Waldbühne. For the normal price! Now the concerts in Berlin are not sold out. There are much better seats for the same price or cheaper. I feel ripped off .

    Because you wouldn't pay an annual fee if they advertised things as mediocre or worst seats.

    How long have you been a member?  The quality of 10C seating has declined due to the dynamic pricing model.

    1996.  And we all know that it s the band who decides to use dynamic pricing.

    💡Because you have NOT payed the „normal Price“ 
      You have payed probably normal Price plus 100% - it was the Fu*k the Scalpers Price - Till today NOBODY with a Berlin Ticket has payed „normal Price“ - all overpriced - at least plus 100% and from there falling

    So you are mad that you got them for the regular price and now seats are dropping in price?  Really not much anyone can do about that unless you can predict the future.  It is the same with all sports and concerts:  if you buy early you run the risk of it not selling as well and prices drop but you also run the risk of having to pay way more then face if it does.  Were you happy when you got tickets?  If so dont worry about what others paid .  Ten Club typically gets a chunk of the best seats but it doesnt mean everyone gets the best seats.  Due to the amount of demand they also took on a bunch of not so great seats so fan club members could at least get tickets, but that has just seemed to make things worse because everyone feels they deserve only great seats.

    This.  

    With way fewer shows and less frequent tours more people have to travel to see Pearl Jam.  Including people with fantastic ten club numbers.  So your great seats at your hometown show 20 years ago are not as great today because people with better fan club numbers are coming to the show because they don’t have one in their local area.

    True more of us going to shows but dynamic pricing has def moved us back or over a couple sections

    dynamic pricing is a huge benefit for people with lots of disposable cash  they get the best seats in the house now especially those killer side seats right next to stage

    Definitely true.  Didn’t mean to make it sound like it was the only factor.
