Plus fees too, right? So looking at around $260 for a P7 face value, right?

yeah, I'm not sure what the processing fees are on seat exchange etc. I've only sold my tickets were I printed or etransfered them after I received cash/etransfer payment. No fees that way for buyers

I decided to proceed with a single P7 ticket for game 5. Cost me $260 including all fees. How does it work is game 5 doesn't occur? Does Ticketmaster refund my credit card?

I’ll have a pair for sale at face value for Monday’s game. 324 row 12. Great seats. Right by the isle and main entrance. Stand the entire game if you like. I also have the option for a third seat if interested.

Ok...I messed up. I bought a pair for my friend who said he wanted a different game. Does anyone want a pair in section 303 row 5 for my cost of $$750?

Just had a pair of P2s in my cart for $1,298 with fees included
STH cost for the same pair is $535
So actual % increase of walkup over STH is 243% for P2s

Was thinking about it. How's the view from p7s?
And to answer your question pretty sure they refund to CC if they don't play.
I sit in P7's 90% of the time and it's perfectly fine. It's really just a different vantage point, but you get the same experience as everyone else in the arena.

View from P7s are good, can see the entire ice. That's where my seats are 330 row 7. I've sat near the glass before and though it's fun, I actually enjoy P7 better because I can see the entire game happening (and my wallet enjoys it also ha).

Heads up - Game 2 pair in 217 P3s on seat exchange, under face value. If you want to avoid the fees, can do a transfer via Jets system/interac transfer payment, pm me

If the Jets make the next round (fully expect it) then I really hope True North hasn't settled on their general sale ticket prices yet and hope they learned some lessons from this round. There is a limit to what people will pay in this town and over 100 unsold tickets last night should be a big red flag for them. I think they did a great job of rewarding season ticket holders with a huge discount for playoff tickets but I think they went too far. Once you take season ticket holders (and their friends/family/business associates who use some of those tickets) out of the demand side, there's a limited amount of people leftover to snap up the remaining supply. In the first couple of rounds the prices were relatively accessible and everyone wanted to get in the barn. But after they've been there once (at full face value), a lot of those same people simply can't or won't go to another strictly based on pricing. Would be interesting to see how many repeat customers there were for full face value off ticketmaster. I would just be guessing but I can't see more than 100-200 people buying tickets to multiple games at full face.

I'm part of a group so I have access at STH price, but even if I didn't I would definitely pay a premium to get into a game, but screw off at more than double, that's just idiotic pricing policy and comes off as simple greed. This town is small enough that everyone local with even a limited circle of friends / acquaintances is able to snag reasonably priced tickets off a STH and the people paying full face value (especially lower bowl) are either out of towners or people looking for a one-time splurge. Realistically, there's enough ex-Winnipegers out there that would make a one-time trip home for the first ever Stanley Cup Finals so there's no way there will be an empty seat next round but if True North doesn't want the embarrassment of having empty seats in the playoffs in the future the way they did yesterday they need to narrow the gap between face value and STH pricing the next time we're in the playoffs (next year).

Careful what you wish for... the STH price might go up to "close that gap".

In the end, that may be a better business plan for them anyway. Charge the STH more and the General Public less. More of a captive audience and guaranteed sales increase the price of ~1300 tickets by 100$ and decrease the ~300 general sale tickets by 100$ to "close the gap". As part of an STH group I hope not!

I'm taking my STH discount to the bank, and I don't mean re-selling them for profit.

I realize that the gap could be shrunk on the backs of STH and I'm like you I think that would be fair to a point, but it would have top be proportionate instead of dollar for dollar. If you spread the increase over 13,000 x 10 bucks = $130k extra revenue per game instead of gouging those other tickets by 100 bucks per ticket to make an extra what 75k? Gotta maintain a decent gap to reward us STH but over double the price is way too extreme of a gap and they left a pile of money on the table yesterday because of it. Obviously not my problem, they're a private corporation, but it reflects badly on our City when we can't sellout a playoff game in our first ever significant run. This is a good lesson for them if they learn from it, otherwise we'll start being looked at like Ottawa last year.

I'm a non-STH and I've been to 5 games now (as of this upcoming Sunday), paying full-face value, which has cost me a little over$1000, since I go sit in the P7 section.

I wonder if the team's poor home record lately has any affect.

I can tell you one thing... Even in light of the team's historical playoff success and excitement surrounding it all, when I went to Game 6 vs. Nashville only to watch them get shutout 4-0, it didn't leave a great taste in my mouth paying $500 for my wife and I to attend. Now, will it stop me from going again in the future, probably not, but it wasn't a good feeling... not... one... bit...
