These were not lucky dip and there is none listed for this show. There is a very small amount of tickets that are $75 each and are at the top of the 200 level sections in the back. It looks like only around 3 rows or so in those sections, so probably only a few hundred seats at this price.
They look like pretty good seats:
I got that too, but decided to wait - trouble is you don't get a second chance, you get booted back to the waiting room so for Amex I guess you need to have multiple windows open!!!
Agreed, the price increases over Boston, 2013, are outrageous for the same seats.
Sounds like Vegas fleecing to me...
I am waiting for other venues. Not worth it. Nothing else to do in Vegas anyway.

Yeah, I would call that seat marginal at best for the price. I wouldn't have bought it, but my experience with Vegas shows in the secondary market over the years is not good. I hate US shows - Europe FOS is sooooo much better for the price.

New York will be the same, if not worse. We always get shafted.

I was trying on 3 computers and to my surprise I got through the waiting room in the first minute and was able to purchase 2 of the $75 tickets in section 216. Really happy about that, as there are so few tickets in the $75 and $150 range.

Two in 212 Row G - $561.30.
I'm good with that; we've done the 4th center in the San Diego Sports Arena a few years back, and the onstage seating at Petco on a later tour..

AA, BB etc. usually is in front of row A. So best seats.

We're in! My buddy got 4 in the lower chunk of Sec 224, row H- P2 tickets looking right down on the stage. Total miracle.

I hate that you only get one chance to buy and then get booted back to the waiting room. Very unfair!

Plenty of places run them the other way, AA after A-Z and if the chart above is correct these aren't even section A on the floor. What a bizarre layout and numbering/lettering scheme. Too much $$$ to roll the dice. For $150 sure, but not for $750.

Well the Stones app was a bust. Got thru quickly on AXS.com on my laptop and got a great seat at face value, hit purchase and got "One moment please" and it's still stuck there. It says "confirmation- thank you for your purchase" but it's frozen. No pending charge on my cc yet and no confirmation email. Am very disappointed because I don't know if my purchase went thru or not. Section A row J seat 7

No luck here. I declined very high row upper level seats and have not gotten other options. Hope I didnt make a mistake but I dont want to sit there. Scouting for much better.

Was only looking for 1 ticket. My wife said she'd rather shop than spend that much on the Stones. Tried the "Gold" package and got floor C row V for $1750. Yeah, right. Pulled up Section C, row W for $750, and I took it. Not sure I'm happy about being 21 rows back for that price, but what the hell.

If the top price for the ASX Premium seats is $750.00 - what will be the top price for the AMEX and Regular, non premium, seats?

Seeing the spread for $750 seats I cannot see any scenario where tickets don't A) get reduced, AKA flex priced and/or B ) get dumped on the secondary market for far less than face value. It's hard to see these prices as anything other than an outrage, a true fleecing of the fans...

P6 is crossed out now. Does not matter, though, because no other tickets are coming up. again a ripoff.

they're just pulling the same old crap-the first round they charge a fortune and then drop them if they don't sell.

This is Coachella "Let It Bleed" pricing. Almost 2X for the same seats compared to 2013 area tours for practically the same setlist.
Very disappointing.

Patience will be the key here. I think there is concert ticket price fatigue everywhere but at these prices it will be extreme, even in Vegas, even for the Stones.
I've recently seen Paul Simon and Bob Dylan and scored $150 face value tickets, ($175 with fees) for $100 and $85 respectively - 16th row both times). The market just isn't that strong and folks are saying enough is enough.
I've paid below face for the Stones a few times and they were ticket prices far below these. I got pit tickets in Philly at roughly half price. Maybe some didn't like the idea of having to stand but to me the PIT was the ultimate and the demand for those tickets should have been through the roof yet they were available for $450. Compare that to the $750 tix for Vegas...

The AXS customer service line is a busy signal. Their website is lousy. I hate to say it, but I prefer Ticketmaster. Never had a problem buying a ticket there. I bet I lost my seat. I sent AXS a screen shot of my frozen confirmation page. Unfortunately, there was no confirmation number on it.

Stones in Vegas is kind of it's own thing, I don't think you can compare it to other cities or other acts. The only fare comparison is to demand to the last Stones Vegas show
