Playoff Tickets Thread [Refunds!]

[imsorry4beatinU]

Some guy had his 130A listed for 175 each so I bought them put them right back up and they sold for 325. made a couple hundred bucks and barely did anything lol.

 

I saw that earlier in the sold section. 130 A row 29?

I think so. They were like 200$ cheaper than anything else at the time.

[Spanky99]

Will not be going to every game. 1 game per series probably

 

Sell now and make big money.

[LGBJ29]

When you guys say you sold them for X amount. Is that what the buyer paid with fees, without fees, or what you made after fees?

Since stubhub is in USD$ the difference in fees really doesn't mean anything for the seller. Say you sold for $200 minus the 25% fee it works out to $150. $150 USD=$200 CAD

[Roy Halladay]

So I have 4 tickets to ALDS game 2 (row 7 section 505) and none for game 1.

 

What I want is 2 tickets to each game.

 

I'm willing to swap 2 for 2 if anyone is interested

 

Cheers

 

Interested

oh no I understand that fully, I'm just trying to get a better idea of the market. I have 113A's I'm trying to sell which are pretty equivalent to your re-sale tickets. I listed them at 350

[Boxcar]

How reliable are they?

 

No more or less reliable than Stubhub.

[Boxcar]

10% on seller 15% to buyer. I did a fake listing to see what it was like. If I listed my tickets for $420. The buyer sees $495, while i only get $378. Pretty brutal

 

Yeah but that they split it like that is an illusion, nothing more. At the end of the day, the buyer fee is just more money not going in the seller's pocket. As a total transaction fee, it's tickpick 10%, Stubhub 25%. Listing with Stubhub only lists your tickets on stubhub. Listing on Tickpick lists them on 5 websites, including Stubhub, and no matter where they are sold it's 10% of your sale going to fees. I sold 2 tickets for 120 each, I got 108 each, no questions asked.

[TilsonBritoFan]

I agree that today has been a great day to sell with all the hype and people panicking.

 

But I don't think tickets are all of a sudden going to get a lot cheaper.

 

Consider:

 

A lot of people are waiting to buy until they see what time the game will be (4:00 vs 7:00) and whether or not they'll need to take time off work or not to make it. Also the Jays haven't technically clinched yet so nothing is guaranteed. Theres a bunch of people waiting until they clinch, and who wants to fork out $500 or $1000 when they don't know which game works better for them yet?

 

I think you will see another huge surge the day the Jays clinch a playoff spot. An even bigger surge the day they clinch the division. And then the biggest surge of all on the day they actually release the tickets with dates/times and everyone is able to verify they can actually attend the game.

 

Don't forget that right now no one is able to make their tickets available for instant download. As soon as that becomes available it makes the tickets more appealing as well.

Well I missed out...Going for $180 ish for the 500's for one ticket. I don't see the value going much higher then that right?

Personally I don't even see the value in that. I'd rather watch at a bar and get hammered than pay $200 for nosebleeds.

 

Or watch at home in HD and eat 3000 calories.

 

The dome is annoying. Seats are too small and there are too many failed waves.

[TilsonBritoFan]

It all depends on a persons financial situation. $200 is a lot of money to some people, and not a lot to others. 15 years ago when I was 20 and in university I'd be right there with you, I couldn't afford to go.

 

But I can now, and I've been waiting 23 years for this - so I would have no problem paying $200 for the worst seat in the house just for the experience and to say I was there.

 

There are a lot of people like you but there are also a lot of people like me. Thats why the prices will stay pretty high I think.

 

canadiansportsjunkie, I think they prices might come down a bit over the next few days, but they might go back up again based on the factors I mentioned a few posts up.

 

If $180 isn't life changing money, why not? You'd be going to a playoff game and I can't see how you would come to regret it. Its not like these tickets are about to be free.

For me the prices are too much just because I know myself....Pre-drinking at a bar. A bunch of beer at the dome. Then back to the bar. Easy $1,000. Heck I went 3 weeks ago with free tickets and dropped $500!

 

I was hoping to buy for the re-sell factor. I will get free tickets for at least one game

It's not just the ticket price that is the cost of the evening for most. However I will say for a Toronto sports team. The prices are fair

Dude... I hate to break this to you but you might have a slight drinking problem.

I agree. Just checked Leafs ticket prices, over $150 to sit in the upper deck to watch the garbage Leafs in a regular season game, and up to $800 to sit in the platinum's. Now thats INSANE.

Tickets, Drinks, Taxi, Dinner/Drinks, Ball game beers then bar beers.

 

It adds up quickly. I was at work at 7am the next day!

Please don't talk about that pathetic organization in here, the Leafs are a joke and I am sorry but anyone that supports that s***** product is a loser.

LOL Ok Bud. Glad we were able to get you to join last month during our run. Were you on the old board?

 

Leafs have changed management etc. It's a Toronto team with a deep history relax

[jaysblue]

Go Habs!

Should you be talking that bad about the Leafs? You know your employer has a majority stake in MLSE now lol

The leafs hatred runs deep in my DNA so no way to turn it off.

If someone cancels the postseason ticket or their payment failed (especially credit card), what would happen to those tickets?

And how low the ticket can go on Stubhub until the day before the gameday?

 

I was just upset and was in down mood for the whole day because I couldn't get my fxxxin ticket this morning. Wasted one hour with nothing

 

If I don't get my ALDS ticket, I will try for ALCS although my parents said don't buy the ticket since it is waste of money.

If your credit card declines any payment the tickets get re-released from my understanding. I think the lowest a ticket will go last second before a game would be anyone's guess.

So is StubHub a trustworthy site for buying tickets? If I buy a pair of tix, will the seats be one next to the other? Edited September 25, 2015 by Montreal_kid61

[jaysblue]

So is StubHub a trustworthy site for buying tickets? What happens if the Jays don't make the ALDS? Does StubHub issue refunds?

 

Sites like StubHub and Vivid Seats are 100% trustworthy for buying tickets on the secondary market. As a buyer, I'd rather buy an expensive ticket on StubHub over an actual scalper or from someone on Kijiji, since the ticket you are purchasing is verified and legit. You would get your money refunded if the game isn't played.
