For anyone looking at TickPick as an option, they are having a Black Friday "sale" starting today..
------
We’re kicking off Black Friday early this year... but there’s a catch! Every other day leading up to 11/25, the promo amount will decrease 1%. Buy early = Larger Savings!
Use promo code EIGHT for 8% off through 11/18
-------
On 11/19, the savings is 7%. I assume the code will be "SEVEN".

Sure, just buying a Sunday ticket outright on Telecharge would be better, but I've used this method to do lots of expensive things... often for free (buy three tickets, sell two, etc.). Plus, it's not a credit card issue, since your purchase and your profits will all be within the same cycle."
How is this any different than the "scalpers" that everyone on here keeps complaining about?

Because you get to see the show. Just a matter of deciding to rail against the system or figure out how to make it work in your favor.

The premiums are popping up and selling quickly, it's not that people are just ignoring them because they can't afford them.

Exactly. I didn't buy the premium I saw for Saturday because I'm looking for Sunday but I mentioned it so someone else here could grab it, if they wanted it.

That might be true, but I have two premiums for tomorrow night and have had no takers, so I’m about to return them to Telecharge. So I also think a lot of people can’t afford them

By your logic, a broker who grabs up 100, 500, 1000 tickets simply needs to use 1 of them for himself and all is good?

Premium Orchestra D1 just popped up for tonight. Releasing now.

My non-premiums for tonight are taken. I'm planning to return the premiums for tomorrow because I've had no takers. Best of luck to folks still seeking tickets!

Which is better Row L Mezz, or Orchestra Row O (side)?

I've sat in both- row O of Orchesta is better.

Haha thanks!! I will most likely go Tues. if I can't trade but I want to take my dad who hasn't seen show/Ben's performance and Tuesday works a little better for my schedule but I know it's a long shot!

I have one more premium ticket for tomorrow night, center orchestra row J, $464. Does anyone want it? Otherwise it’s going on stubhub, because the box office says they’re no longer accepting returns.

I am glad! I actually loved my row O seats and thought they were great, but I am sure you're at the show right now seeing that for yourself! :) I hope you enjoy the show!

i just got in line and i’m the fourth (and last person) for saturday. the line is really confusing cause there’s already one person in line for sunday. we’re doing the signing in sheet thingie, which is pretty typical and stuff. there’s only me and a friend from this board also in line, all the others are line sitters. but again, there are people ONLY for the evening and people only for the matinee (bc they’re line sitters) and then there’s the girl and i who dont care which show we get as long as we get in.
