This shouldn't really be too big of a shock though. When the prices came out in 2012, that was a shock. This is one last big cash grab then off they go until they want more cash. There's a reason they didn't tour from 2006-2012. It didn't interest them. It likely still doesn't based on the pricing and the "you travel to them" strategy. They are doing it for c

Quotebye bye johnny @doublenit - thanks for posting that e-mail. So Ticketmaster is sending cancellation notices for orders exceeding a two ticket limit and confirming an eight ticket limit. What a mess. I'm surprised that nobody is fighting their cancellation. Has anyone that had a cancellation contacted Ticketmaster? I know I certainly would in that event. It still says an eight

Chances are they have it together at this point (or as much as they can prior to the show). I hope you're right though, as I have multiple pairs for Chicago. You're right about that...of course, when I tried to ask if the

Quotedoublenit I got confirmation from TM in an email already, but wanted to confirm. I just spoke with someone at the United Center in Chicago. I told him I have two pairs of the $85 tickets from the day they went on sale. The guy said, as long as you have the tickets, you'll get in. You'd have to get them at the box office I figured that the Staples Center might know more sin

Yeah, that's true. I think they are worth at least $ 150 but, I know I wouldn't commit any amount of money on the secondary market for a TBD ticket. I think not knowing the location until you get into the areana, really takes the scalping option off the table. You might be able to sell it for a floor price but, having to go straight into the arena you couldn't say to the buyer &quo

I would see what happens Friday. If they are problems, people will share them. If you didn't receive a cancellation notice, I think you will be ok. You couldn't scalp the tickets without knowing the location. How would you determine the value without a location? I can understand a 2 ticket limit to ensure multiple people have best chance possible but, at this point the Stones could

Thanks for posting the message you received. Should be interesting to hear what happens. I don't understand why they didn't update the posted limits after coming to that conclusion. Guess we'll never know

Hmmmmm. Based on the Vegas poster's experience, calling attention to it is not a good idea. I've talked to several reps with all of them saying it will be fine but, mixed responses have been widely reported. As far as I know, Anaheim is the only one (besides Philly) that seems to have had mass order cancellations.

Quotebye bye johnny QuoteGumbootCloggeroo Interesting that NOW they specifically state that "Only one pair per valid I.D". Perhaps that was the plan all along. First batch of 85 dollar tickets, no limit. Now that there's a smaller amount of them available, limit. "Duplicate" orders are being cancelled, so the two ticket limit was in place from the outset, nebulous Ticke

Just called Staples Center box office out of curiosity and was told that seats are determined the day of the show. Guess we'll have more answers on the process Friday. No one seems to give a consistent answer for now.

I don't see the issue with buying eight tickets if you are legitimately going with family and friends. I didn't use any bot type program and bought my other pairs late on Monday night after everyone had a chance to try for tickets ( provided I probably got very lucky timing wise). They aren't being sold at a premium and they are going to real fans who wanted to pay what they consid

Just talked to Ticketmaster again. Lady said that you can only buy in pairs of two but the eight ticket limit is still in effect. There is no limit regarding the offer other than the general on sale limit. I don't see how a person could scalp the tickets without knowing the location of the seats prior. I suppose you could but, I don't think I myself would make that deal for a buyer&
Forum: Tell Me

What show is this for? This is getting extremely frustrating because it seems that everyone is getting conflicting answers. Currently on hold with Ticketmaster to try to get an answer for the May 31, 2013 Chicago show. I have already talked to someone at TM and the United Center, both said eight was the ticket limit for the offer.
