Rangers Season Tickets Holders: Part XII

[Section311]

I better get on the ball and start selling mine too.

Yea I just looked I have only 2 games left in October and one is the oilers on a Saturday which should easily sell but I have them up for a lot just to see if someone bites

 

[broadwayblue]

On TE when listing tickets for sale it says "Similar tickets are selling for $XX.XX". Is this amount the total cost or the price seen when viewing inventory on the site?

 

[Section311]

Sold 3 more games today..sold out all of October already all from the ticket exchange..haven’t sold any big games though yet no caps, pens, or islanders

Put most of Oct on SH yesterday, no nibbles. I usually put the price as the cheapest in 224 and the other center ice section 211. Do you have more suscess over at TE? I've never used that to sell tickets before..

 

[broadwayblue]

Listed my entire inventory on TE yesterday. Trying a different approach this season as I usually go with Vivid/StubHub. Anyway, my Oct 13 vs Edm just sold for a good bit over face.

That’s funny oilers are the 1 game in October that hasn’t sold on ticket exchange for me yet

 

[eKardz]

tickets selling like hotcakes today.

 

[Rangers2319]

This is first year im using ticketexchange. Selling games super fast, have never sold this many in july and for a premium. I have used stubhub in the past.

Have to think it has to do with the fact that in july/august the supply is rather low thus the “real” market price hasnt been determined and what we as sellers are seeing is panic buyers thinking prices will rise as season nears.

I cant think of any other explanation for why tickets are moving fast but im not complaining thats for sure

 

[rambler725]

selling like hotcakes??? really...at such inflated prices for season ticket holders what can the profit margin really be?

 

[NYRFAN218]

Yeah, I’m doing exceptionally well with TicketExchange too thus far after switching over. Really weird too because at least in my pricing category, tickets are substantially cheaper on StubHub/Vivid.

 

[Shrimper]

What's the likely cheapest tickets for the Oilers game? Might be visiting New York in October and want to see that game

 

[Section311]

I’ve sold 20 games so far on ticketexchange all games for a profit..sold the Toronto game today for 50 a ticket over face..I’m shocked at how quickly tickets are moving

Also realize there’s something about getting the tickets emailed ASAP and only ticketexchange has that option right now..you can load tickets until 72 hours prior on stubhub

i feel like the verified thing has to do with it too. my parents would never buy tickets off stub hub, craigslist or ebay. they think those things are scams, 20 years later lol. But a ticket master ticket, sold and verified by ticketmaster would make older generations much more comfortable i believe, and they would pay the premium.

Stub hub is very reliable and if there is a problem they do take quick action from my experience but I think the major thing right now is ticketexchange is the only place that you get the emailed tickets right now and that’s playing a big part in it. Also there was a pre sale today so I wonder if people who didn’t or couldn’t get what they wanted today started buying on secondary market

 

[patnyrnyg]

Every game varied but average was like 20 a ticket over face and so far it was all games that were 86, 102 or 135

That's it? $20 over face? Hate to break it to you, but you are pretty much giving them away.

 

[patnyrnyg]

This new ticket exchange site is awful. Is there any way to even look at the other listings in your section?

I agree. This new site is terrible/

I'd think the older generation would prefer the actual ticket over a barcode on their phone.

I would take face just not to eat any games. My experience is the quicker you get rid of them the better off you are. Everyone try’s to make a killing and then they panic the day of the game and end up losing money. I’m more than thrilled to sell a panther game in October for face let alone make 40 dollars

Totally agree. If I can cover my cost this season I'll consider that a success. I still think come opening day it's going to be tough to get face on many nights.

 

[sbjnyc]

The early games are going to be relatively easy to sell imo since the games are cheap (for variable pricing) and the team won't suck (on paper at least).

 

[eKardz]

any of you guys have a clue or at least a guess as to when Vic Hadfield's jersey night is?

 

[MikePLee]

Totally agree. If I can cover my cost this season I'll consider that a success. I still think come opening day it's going to be tough to get face on many nights.

100% agree with both of you. I'm shooting for minimal profits right now. Any games I can sell for cover I'm moving them.

So far, games have been selling really well.

Yeah, there’s some games I’m aiming to make a nice chunk on but I’m trying to aggressively move stuff. So far in terms of regular season, I moved every game for my average cost or better. 5 games across Oct - Dec. Two games I may have undersold (12/27 which is usually a big money game I definitely did but I’m fine with what I took home and Thanksgiving weekend Caps I sold for just under variable face but I thought the variable one was ridiculous for that). Sold a few dead games for my average cost or better too.
