Didn't find what I am looking for yet. Actually I did but I cant afford to pay top dollar right now. Damn it. I wanna cry.
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?
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.
