Buffett Tickets
I was looking through the ticket exchange and here is a question I can't help but to ask myself. If you finally get through at ticketmaster and have some extra tickets. Say you have been forced to buy off of ebay for years due to ticketmonster. Would u wanna sell them for face value in ticket exchange or sell them on ebay since u have been paying ebay prices for years. And what if the person u sell them to in ticket exchange is a scalper and they sell them on ebay. I dont know what I would do to be honest.

Re: Buffett Tickets
As tempting as it is to try to make some extra $$, as a fan, the right thing to do is offer them to another fan who was shut out! Look for someone that actually posts on the board and is a regular and you will know they are going to a good home and not a scalper!!! And if you come across any extras for Cincy, let me know!allan1058 wrote:I was looking through the ticket exchange and here is a question I can't help but to ask myself.

Re: Buffett Tickets
Nobody forced you but you still had to pay scalper prices? If I can't get tickets from TM, if none of my friends have extras or I can't get them through the ticket exchange I'm not going. I never bought tickets from ebay, a broker or a scalper and I never will. People are always bitching and moaning but scalpers only get away with what they're doing because some dumbass is willing to pay what they're asking.allan1058 wrote:You know what the hell I mean, nobody forced me but If I wanted to see the hottest concert of the summer I had to pay them damn scalper ticket pricesLIPH wrote:Who forced you?allan1058 wrote:Say you have been forced to buy off of ebay for years due to ticketmonster.

Re: Buffett Tickets
Let's see, I went to 12 Buffett shows last year, I've been to 2 already this year, one for free because I know somebody in the band, and I have tickets for 5 more. All without paying more than face value. I think I understand.allan1058 wrote:Well nobody forced me but I guess you dont understand, have fun sitting at home!LIPH wrote:Nobody forced you but you still had to pay scalper prices?

Re: Buffett Tickets
Tickets for Mohegan Sun haven't gone on sale yet and the Wrigley Field shows still aren't "official". Plus, there's still the fall leg of the tour still to be announced. Who knows how many I'll wind up going to this year.rednekkPH wrote:Only 7 shows this year?

Re: Buffett Tickets
Well sorry we dont all have the luxury of knowing somebody in the band, and sorry some of us cant make it to 12 shows a year, so when there is 1 show that some of us can make it to I will pay the extra money for some tickets.rednekkPH wrote:LIPH wrote:Let's see, I went to 12 Buffett shows last year, I've been to 2 already this year, one for free because I know somebody in the band, and I have tickets for 5 more.
