    Got this reminder. This all seems messy.


    Yes, this is going to be a mess.

    We might want to get there earlier then usual as It may be a Cluster Fuck trying to get in.

    That info doesn't say anything about tickets being in our Wallets, so that should be good?

    We might be able to download them from the MLB app to our wallets. I could do that for Paul McCartney tickets at Camden Yards.

    fan 2 fan ticket listings are no longer showing up when viewing Fenway 1 or 2 on TM.  started doing this last night.  seems a bit sooner than 10 days out...  sometimes they show up, sometimes they don't.  it's definitely intermittent all of a sudden. it's also glitching out and showing the $175 fan 2 fan seats as $208.69...

    Fwiw I was buying last minute Incubus tickets yesterday and this was happening all day. Large chunks of tickets would disappear for several minutes then reappear.

    yea, I don't have any tickets listed at the moment but this isn't great for whoever is hoping their tickets sell.  since it is hit or miss if the listing will show up or show the correct price right now and it's crunch time.

    Start selling those tickets now if you know you can’t use them. Time is getting close to when F2F shuts down for Fenway.

    @Kat @Sea If this email is right and fans will only be able to access their Fenway tickets via the MLB Ballpark app, might be worth pinning a post with details, an FAQ, etc.

    So TM will no longer be able to list phony F2F tickets with dynamic pricing anymore, sweet!

    It doesn't sound like we'll get in with them in Apple Wallet -- we will have to have them on the MLB.com app

  • Could be wrong, but I think this is a combo of Massachusetts re-sell laws combined with the Fenway/MLB venue restrictions. 

    Mass is different from most states where you can be a secondary market reseller but need to be registered with the regulatory agency.  It’s probably a method of protecting the registered re-sellers which is weird since you’re legally only allowed to resell for $2 more than purchase price plus cost of Visa charges etc. 

    Just thought I’d throw it out there since we cancelled going to these shows at the last minute.  Didn’t want to risk getting shut out after reading into state laws.  Maybe I’m wrong but that was my findings.

    hope everyone lucky enough is going have a great time!

    If sellers are aware of this I wonder if there will be some nice panic deals that day
    Likely. I got Wrigley N1 Pits for $390 day of two hours before PJ took the stage.

  • Is the idea that the tickets get automatically transferred over to the MLB app from the Ticketmaster app? If so, that hasn’t happened for me yet.

    This is so dumb. Thank you to @GlowGirl and others for making a point to let others know about this. Glad I was able to do my buying and selling yesterday.
