(and honestly, do you expect many people to post here admitting that they subsidize their Buffett fix by reselling their tickets?) That's why I did a poll...the votes are anonymous (although I wouldn't be surprised if phjim could look them up if he chose to do so). And if people want to post and sh...

These registered people, depending on the venue they are corporate and are confirmed sells, in which the venue sells to their sponsors first, ie. box seats etc. Many large venues have corps that re sell tickets into these brokers. I have purchased pre-sale tickets in the past for Chicago and at an ...

Acording to the chicago tribune, Ticketsplus was selling tickets to ARCADE FIRE at The Chicago Theatre were selling dozens of premium tickets before they were to go on sale thru ticketmaster website. I will try to put the link in. " It's the Arcade Fire at the Chicago Theatre on May 18-20. The...

Non-local phone numbers will work but when I investigated going to an outlet in another state, they said no dice. I was going to be on the road between Indy and Cincy when Tampa tix went on sale last fall. I was told area outlets only cover venues in a roughly 200 mile radius. So be sure to check wi...

Unfortunately I am going to have a small caravan of my own and this could be tough to manuever. I am gathering people from the south west and driving up. I'm not sure making the Holiday Inn is an option. Did the Holiday Inn have parties Friday night too? I may sneak up to that if so. Yep...and Mac ...

We know ticket buying time is a frenzy. And since we have to plan so far ahead getting numbers right can sometimes be a challenge...but I'm curious how people generally approach this. When TM puts Buffett tickets on sale, if you are lucky enough to get through, do you buy just what you need or do yo...

So I tried again at work got orch3 row k so we had to use his emergency credit card that our mom gave him. So were hoping he dosent get in trouble. we pulle...

The one good thing about high ticket prices in pavillion is scalpers are not doing as well. Bingo! I think that's the main reason JB raised ticket prices last year...not just because he was greedy but because he needed to take some of the profits and motivation to buy up tickets away from the scalp...

First, last Monday when Chi-Town/Alpine Tix went on sale our Comcast Internet went [smilie=grrrrrr.gif] !! Now today, I was gonna take a stab at some lawn for Bristow and my 9:00 appointment who I figured would be done in 45 minutes yapped.....and yapped.....and yapped until 11:00!! :evil: NO TIX!!...

Hey, where is the quality line in that graph? There isn't one. Doesn't that count? It's in there. :wink: The graph shows what people are willing to pay for a given product (e.g. a Buffett show). So "quality" or "value" is a part of the decision each of us makes...whether we'll p...

Hmmm....punctuation censorship....

I think that the "demand" for these concerts is somewhat manufactured. Last year there were ton of tickets available on ebay/stubhub/BN for or below cost, and people were dumping them days before the concerts. To some degree you're right. This is a very emotional market...and that's hard ...

could it be that the M'ville in Orlando is looking for business? he's always talking about the food and the atmosphere etc. since he's there live, that makes sense, but imho you still gotta get the big stuff right..... It's a great idea to try and draw more of a live crowd during the typically slow...

Speaking of charges, I just bought 12 tickets for the Braves/Tigers game in June. TicketB@$tard charged $56 just for convenience charges :o :x :evil: NOW THAT'S EXPENSIVE :evil: Can someone please explain what that @#$%&* "convenience" charge is for? It's definitely not for the custom...

I didn't find the CD in the copy I bought so I returned it. I'm trying to imagine the look on the clerks face when you were returning the swimsuit issue. [smilie=umm.gif] :lol: :lol: Fine, actually. I told her why I'd bought it, she just looked for the CD like I did, didn't find it and gave me the ...

Lands End, realize this subject has been beaten to death...usually several times each season. :roll: :roll: To me the best example that JB's tickets are not overpriced is the two Gillette stadium shows officially sold out in one hour. That's 120,000+ tickets. Cheaper JB tickets just won't happen unl...

I'm guessing there's a character limit. I wrote two sentences and it took my entry just fine on the first try.

For meeting up together, one thing that worked well last year was people actually collecting in the Holiday Inn pre-party lot earlier in the day and then driving over to the venue as a group later in the afternoon. That way we had several cars parked together, could tell others via cell phone where ...

Apparently they're just looking for short sound bites....
