at about the 25 minute mark, i finally got in. Pit 2 still available at $467. But 5x "another fan beat me" to the tickets (FIVE!!!).
Then 2x error codes, and then the Pit was sold out.
Briefly looked around for something front row of a section. Finally refreshed the page and lo and behold Pit 2 was back again -- but only VIP at $749 or Platinum at $999. Ugh. I took the stupid VIP. Added parking. Declined insurance. Clicked to purchase, and...
Transaction failed. Chase decided this was a fraudulent transaction (what, i havent been to enough RS shows over the past 40 years?), perhaps because it was venued in a different part of the country from where i typically play.
Clicked OK to Chase, tried again on TM and finally got the tickets. Phew. What a mess.
So not exactly a success story, but I suppose it could have been worse. I think.

Patience! These "face value" tickets are like an opening negotiation. I'm saying not just no, but "HELL NO" to the tickets at these prices. They will sink like a Stone as we get closer to the shows.
I don't think this is true. Last year pit tickets never went below 442+fees anywhere. Glendale I think was the cheapest. Pretty much every other city it was 499+fees face. Never below.
If you are talking about Platinum (which you should not be searching to begin with!) then you are right about prices fluctuating.
You have to be familiar with the system. Lots of rookie mistakes happening.

Anybody have any idea why no e-ticket option at all? I wasn't thrilled to be charged $5 to mail my paper tickets, but paper tickets only seems like a regression in ticket sales technology.
There is an e-ticket option if you have (or get) their app..

Word to the wise: VPN doesn't work. They detect at least Avast Secureline VPN and the Opera built-in VPN.

Looks like the pit is $699 this time. Got in for Detroit and Louisville. It took about 30 minutes.
In there now, both sides of Pit available at face $499.50Quote

I hate this ticket scramble. I will only go to San Diego but I still have “2000+ people in front of” me in the queue. I want a pit ticket. If I don’t get one today, I will try Friday. Trying not to panic is hard for me as I have had since 1972 a bad case of STSD (Stones ticket stress disorder).

Yeah, I got a whiff of SD pits until the dreaded "Sorry, someone got them ahead of you" message. Must have just missed. $749 vips only now.
