Does someone maybe know this from buying tickets for prior US tours, does Ticketmaster put their platinum charge only on top of standard admission tickets or also on top of the vip packages? Basically, will you be charged more twice, once for the vip stuff and once for the platinum stuff on top of that? Or are vip tickets excluded from the additional platinum charge?

Thanks for the explanation^^

The system is completely fucked...at least they now finally switched off the queue and it's easier to check the maps because you don't have to verify first

It's still annoying af tho cause in contrast to hotels actually having that issue e.g. during fairs or big events in a city, or just holiday season in beach towns, TM is inflating the prices artificially by willingly holding tickets back from putting them on sale...

Seattle has SMU packages for the pit available rn, hope the other cities will follow soon, we want those for Orlando at least, not really eager to stand outside the venue for hours in that heat...

I feel bad for Sasha. She seemed like she really enjoyed her time with the band.

Thanks a lot for your explanation, Paranoid Android, I apprecciate it...because actually, I cannot post on IORR and I don't post on FB that's why I never actually asked there and only saw people say "just wait" so now at least I understand this a bit better...tho it's interesting to see that they would stop Vip tickets 2 weeks before the show for the reasons you mentioned because last year there were Vip Pit tickets available for Vienna on show day (however, they also completely oversold the entire stadium and it was packed to the brim)

As for buying tickets through re-sellers, I have never tried this and have heard various remarks about it, it's great that everything always worked out for you so far, even with getting a refund for a cancelled show, others however explicitly mentioned that they couldn't get refunds in case of cancellations :/ anyway, I hope that just won't happen but what makes me wonder more is that that NOBODY seems to have seen any pit tickets (normal and SMU vip package) at all so far in general sale (except for Seattle for a few days) but for all other shows there just were a few pit tickets available during presale, however since they don't put everything on sale during presale and almost nobody has bought any pit tickets so far, the pressing overall question remains: where the fuck are they and when will they finally put them on sale, seeing that re-sellers also don't have them cause I didn't see any for direct transfer, they all say they will be delivered 2 days before the show and friends who have bought tickets there before said if they state this this means they don't even have the tickets yet themselves and just try to get them later as well...

It's annoying af but considering that they are trying to force people to buy nosebleed seats for 600 dollars it's obvious why they would hold back the pit tickets, cause even vip costs "only" 800 in comparison...
