Ticketing is a dirty business.

 

And we both know that most of these Buffalo Bills STH who get these discounted tickets are going to be RAKING IN THE DOUGH.

 

It's a huge machine.  Consumers f*ck each other over every bit as much as artists and TicketMaster f*cks consumers over.

 

Sad.

 

Hence why the tickets shouldn't be free (or close to free) to begin with.  The scalpers or whomever need to have some skin / risk in the game.

Maybe. It's awful close to gametime to try and buy tickets and then flip them for two teams playing in a neutral site location. They might get caught bagholding on that scalp job.

If the game in were in Carolina I'd understand that - but it's a game that just became slightly closer and more comfortable for Cleveland fans.  I think there will be a market.

In this type of instance, I'd argue that the tickets shouldn't even be transferable.  Would cut down on people just buying tickets in an attempt to flip them for a profit.

Not a secondary one.  No way this thing is close to selling out.

I said theres a chance, the Jets game there was well attended. Northern Ohio is not far from Detroit

[ColoradoBills]

How can scalpers even have tickets yet.  No Lions STH are involved, and the Bills haven't started selling tickets yet?

[BuffaloBillies]

I'm in the "waiting room" on ticketmaster right now. I'm not a season ticket holder though. Says 8 minutes left. I'll report back

[HoofHearted]

If there's any season ticket holder that isn't planning on using their code I'll gladly use it for you. 😀

[Wayne Cubed]

Looks like people who have the Bills App will get a code at 5pm for tickets.

I’m a bills fan, not a brownie or girl scout

 

Shame how this is going to play out with browns fan Access.

Now in the "queue" says 2000+ ahead of me

[PromoTheRobot]

LOL, the website says "2000+ ahead of you!"  Does anyone know whatthe prices are?

Same here - I joined the waiting room about 9 minutes before 2

I'm already seeing tickets on TickPick and they are not cheap.  Nosebleeds starting at $164/each.  Seats in the 100s are all over $300/each, unless you want endzone seats, which are close to $300.

 

We have amazing friends here. All of whom reached out to offer their assistance in getting tickets for my family. So, it doesn't look like I will pay that. Plus, I can't see those prices holding come game time. 

[Straight Hucklebuck]

And this is all off the link the Bills sent you?

You're going to need the code sent to STH, unless you found someone to give that to you

The queue opened up early. Scalpers got in and others selling prospective seats, etc. 

 

The code is the same for all STH. It's actually the dumbest code possible.

I didn't and got in.

I must have guessed it, lol, I got in.

Getting "in" the queue line is one thing, actually being able to checkout is another.

 

So you purchased? What are prices?

I haven't a clue.

 

It's probably the app itself listing tickets they don't own, with plans to auto-buy corresponding tickets as soon as they sell on the site itself.
