I agree, it's ridiculous. In this case, the prices for reseller tickets are way more reasonable.

A year ago it was, "people won't pay 'crazy prices' post-Lin & OBC" ... well 35,000+ sold Premium seats later and $3 million per week ( BEFORE the secondary market ) sort of proves that wrong.

Do you know how long it usually takes for Telecharge to email the DEH tickets? When I bought tickets for Anastasia back in May, they were sent like 15 minutes after my confirmation email was sent, but I still haven't received the DEH tickets. Does it take longer since it is a very high in demand show?

They usually take 3 days. If you buy a ticket on Tuesday, it's usually emailed to you on Friday, etc.

Ah okay, awesome! I bought them last night (Friday) so I guess I will be looking for them Monday or Tuesday :) Thanks

I didn't say someone wouldn't pay it. I said I thought it was crazy.

Searched but came up empty handed again. How much were they?

I snagged O27. It’s going to involve an overnight bus home, but it’s completely worth it if Ben and Rachel are both there. 

Thanks so so much for all your help finding tickets for everyone!!

I've had my account for quite a few years and have never posted. Just want to say thanks to CT2NYC.


Just purchased L28 for Wednesday night. So excited to see Ben again before he leaves!

Nice! I've heard great things about row O! It's tiered above row N, so it has great sightlines, with no heads in the way.

That's awesome, thanks for letting me know! It makes me very happy when the seats I see get picked up by fans on here! Have a great time!

Yes! I told you it was a possibility. Glad you were able to snag one!

I don't understand how ya'll are getting these seats to pop up! I haven't seen a single available seat. I'm using the app, searching only for Wednesday night, and have premium not selected.

If you buy the tickets for the shows 4 days out, does telecharge email you the tickets faster? I have a friend who goes to NYU and I may try to get him a ticket since he has yet to see the show, but I want to be sure I would get the email with the ticket in time... If not, maybe box office pick up is a better option?

There's a 3-day hold on DEH e-tickets because of fraud protection. For the 4-day tickets, they're delivered the morning of the day before the show. So, for example, for tickets purchased today for Wednesday, e-tickets should be delivered Tuesday morning. For me, there've been delivered between 2 and 4 a.m. So, it's really like 2 days before the show, which is plenty of time. If, for some reason, the ticket doesn't show up, it can be changed to Will Call.

There is an option for $4.95 to have someone other than yourself pick up the ticket at the box office. I think this is your best bet, so as to guarantee the friend receives it. Likewise, I personally love saving my box office tickets!

Ok perfect, thank guys! :)
Also random question CT2NYC- how many times have you been to see DEH? Just curious :P You seem incredibly knowledgeable! Haha

Only twice, but I've bought several tickets for friends. When they've wanted to see it, they've put me on the case, since they know I can deliver results! Now, it's kind of an obsession. After Ben leaves, I might have to find something else to do, although I also track Hello, Dolly! tickets, so that'll keep me busy until Bette Midler leaves in January.

Understandable- it's kinda fun to check for tickets to see if anything shows up! Any idea on if/when Hamilton tickets that are held get released? I know they are sold through ticketmaster and not telecharge, so I don't know if that works any differently. It is cool that you were able to figure out the 4 day DEH trick :)

Actually, bear88 was the original poster about the 4-day trick. Because of him, I started tracking it. I have no idea about Hamilton. It's just not on my radar, mainly because you can't search a range of dates on Ticketmaster. That makes it really difficult to figure out any kind of pattern, if there even is one.
