HF Official Devils '17-18 Ticket/All Things Pru Center Thread

[Devils Dominion]

I also think it's 10

It's def not 18.

The rep either mis-spoke or the fan misunderstood.

8 or 10 is a lot out of 40+ games.

this is why i don't sell any games back until i know 100% i'm renewing. I think for the last couple years i've just sold back the last 5 home games of the season.

Don't forget the opt-out clause in the T&C. You'll be auto-renewed unless you notify the Devils.

This is another reason I do the 12 month plan, I would just change my credit card and tell them to **** off if they wouldn't let me out.(I don't ever plan on canceling my season tickets, just saying lol)

Good find. I figured whoever is selling them the new scoreboard would be replacing/upgrading the ribbons as well. Maybe adding a bunch over the entrances like I think Detroit has. Wonder if ours will surpass the new ones in Detroit and Edmonton; think only one in the league is 4k at the moment.

It would also be great if they installed LED screens in each of the towers but now I'm getting greedy. Good to see they keep upgrading the arena in more offseasons than not.

I got a call from the Devils last night and got the usual sales pitch.... but one thing that struck me as odd was that they offered to buy back up to 18 games. That seemed like kind of a lot. Along with that, I was offered memorabilia and a game in club seats.

Has anyone else heard of the buy back being that high?

Who is your rep?

I'm in Philly for WWE right now and they have both levels of their ribbon boards down as well.

 

[johnny pierogi]

Are you getting calls from 215 numbers? They have 76ers reps trying to sell us tickets now too.

Yes, it was a 215 number which I'm obligated to answer because the company I work for is based in that area. It was a lot easier when I could just F U button the Newark calls.

 

[superyan]

Who is your rep?

I think his name was Matt. It was a cold call. I've had seats on and off since the late 90s.

 

[Its a Trap]

I find all of your comments amusing as I sign up for Devils stuff all the time and have bought tickets through the team before but they only call my father who bought a ticket plan in the 11-12 season. They only call me after he gives them my number.

Who is your rep?

Not sure that matters ... my account online still lists my rep as Cori Younghans

Am I understanding this correctly from that image, that a motivational speaker practically sold out The Rock? Even if they pulled the "WWF trick" and loaded everyone on 1/2 of the arena, that's crazy.

It was a four day event too....

Membership page was updated to reflect buyback program is 8 games

I know I complain a lot but I can't help it. I just got a call from another rep trying to sell me the flex membership package. She informed me that this year it is now $3000 as a minimum. Only two years ago it was $2500. So now in the last two years they have raise the price a bit flex membership by $500 for a team that has been on watchable the last couple of years. I am done with ever thinking about season tickets. I'm going to be one of those cheap people that nickel and dime on StubHub every single game. I'm blown away by the price gouging.

That's crazy, would make more sense to just get a full season package for cheaper then do a membership. I really don't understand why they are trying to do away with different packages with smaller amounts of games. It's not like we are packing the place full every night.

That's absurd? Aren't ST in the upper deck ~$3000?

I know you are pretty vocal about season ticket economics but that's too broad a statement. There are some price points where it's at worst a wash. I've been in the cheap seats enough seasons to know. I lose on the dud games and come out way ahead on rangers and post New Years weekends.

That said, raising the entry level of the flex plan above what I pay for my pair is absurd. It should have been lowered to $1,500, not increased to $3,000.

 

[Devils Dominion]

Flex Membership is not really geared toward the average fan (especially not the frugal ones) who wants to attend a lot of games.

I think of it as a small business plan to entertain clients in the lower levels during the week and then bring family on the weekends to select games.

Starting out, it was exactly geared towards frugal fans. It was cheaper than two balcony seats and allowed people to pick whatever games and seats they wanted.

They honestly REALLY raised prices this season while trying to hide the fact that they did it. If you didn't renew/sign up in the beginning of the year, the prices for regular tickets or the flex membership have gone up considerably.

This is thousands and thousands of dollars people have to consider dedicating to a bad hockey team. I feel like the team should give these people time to make a decision instead of raising the price periodically to price people out.

The easiest way to say it is the Devils have really never been interested in matching relative demand to ticket supply. They have traditionally just squeezed the turnip as much as they can at the expense of filling every seat. That's just the business model that they use. Fans don't like it and/or understand it sometimes but it is what it is (and why we are always trying to get around face value prices).
