First world problem: Ticketmaster Pre verified tickets

I got the code for the p!nk presale got my tickets but them in my cart did what I had to do apply my discounts went to pay for them and then got an error occurred and it brought me back to trying to get tickets and now I can't.

First world problems I know but I am so beyond pissed and find it unfair and know ticket master can not do anything about it.

Stubhub. It's a great site.

I also find since they sell tickets to things so far in advance - they typically have people selling them on our local FB groups for face value.

Re: First world problem: Ticketmaster Pre verified tickets

That sucks. I've been there! Don't worry though. You have lots of options.

1. I wouldn't be surprised if she adds another date to MSG. So there's that.

2. General onsale, you may get lucky. Use the TM app, its better than the site.

3. Ticket drop a few days before the event -- there's almost always a ticket drop by companies who were allocated tickets and not all will be used.

4. Day-of tickets will be available on StubHub for cheap. Cheaper than face value. This happens with every concert.

I've never missed a concert in my life because it's "sold out". You won't either!

What about non-concert shows? I want to go a podcast taping that is "sold out." Should I wait or by now on StubHub?

I bought tickets to a concert 3 months ago. The concert is on Thursday. Tickets still haven't arrived, the promoter/band/etc held back shipping the tickets until last Thursday, to stop Stubhub, scalpers, etc. The show is in DC and I'm leaving first thing on Thurs morning, so I hope they come tomorrow...

They're requiring ID and CC to get into the event (that info is printed on the tickets), so there was no reason for them to hold back on shipping them this late. I'm lucky that we are leaving morning of and not days before.

Only thing you have to check is to make sure the tickets don't have to be used by the purchaser.

Some bands are now requiring names on tickets and cross referencing tickets/name/credit card numbers upon entry.

So if you buy from Stubhub in that scenario you are screwed.

for good seats??

I saw OneRepublic this summer. I wanted to go again to their next closest show a few days later. I sat in the pit the first time. so the nearest show that week in NJ I stalked stub hub and seat geek for and NO ONE lowered the prices for the front row seats even the day of. I was so disappointed.

Glad i'm not alone. Took 7 mins of circling looking for tickets and it gave me the side of the stage... No thanks! Email said not to refresh and it would be busy. I was on the site as the timer changed.

Hmmm hard to tell. It's a smaller venue. What podcast is it for? Anything with a heavy cult following may not have as many tickets available close to the date since it may be for a very particular audience (i.e., people didn't just buy tickets on a whim)

There's nothing on the site that indicates that the purchaser must be the one using the tickets, just so you know :)

It probably is, they never come to NY. I want to buy the tickets as a gift, so StubHub it is!

She's the musical guest on SNL this weekend in case anyone is interested!
