I remember doing that through the "fan club" at Staples Center in '02, I think the tix were around $300 way up in the upper bowl about halfway back...didn't want to fly all the way from Florida and get shut out!

Cant think why. That's fucking disgusting for a rock n roll concert, no matter what spin or sugarcoating anyone wants to put on it.

You realise you'll get more tickets for less money on the public sales, right?

Its not as if theyre playing 8,000 seater halls here. You seriously think they'll sell thousands of tickets at $700 - $1,500 in every venue in massive football stadiums?

Thanks Gazza I needed a shoulder to cry on. Actually some decent single seats in the $400 range came up but for a pair the seats that came up sucked. I will wait. and curse. and go into a whole big lecture to myself as to why I don't have enough money to do everything in the world I can possibly imagine! WHERE DID I GO WRONG?

Don't have an american express card and i refuse to pay the Platinum prices or the ridiculous VIP package prices, when I could have got a ticket 2 rows back for the normal inflated venue price. This is so utterly ridiculous, it actually makes me sick....

I'll be going to the concert, but i refuse to give them any more of my hard earned money than I have to! And forget traveling around to see them. One show in Columbus and that's it! I could go to at least 4 other great concerts for the price I am limiting myself to for this concert. yes i am thoroughly disgusted...

You'll get what you need. And for the prices you were originally willing to pay. Just have patience.

Dont forget that about half of the people who are buying these tickets have no intention of going or will suddenly realise that theyre having their ass waxed that night or something and will want some mug to take them off their hands for about $100 over face value.

When you have about 20,000 people trying to be scalpers for a stadium show for tickets that are already highly priced, they arent all going to make money on their little gamble.

Remember in 2012 there were only 2 European shows and 3 US shows.....much higher demand for tickets for those shows than these ones as the ratio of fans to tickets was enormous. I decided to go three days before the gig and had no problem getting a pair of decent tickets (face value £816 for the pair) on e-bay for £560.

No one needs to pay above face value for a concert ticket in a stadium. Especially a high priced concert ticket. There are always extras.

I know you love the Stones, but dont be held to ransom by these absolute scams. Never panic buy. Not at this stage in the sales anyway.
