Has anyone found a way around the ticket limit? I was the only one of my friends to get a verified code way back when and made a large group purchase for further on when we could get seats.
When general sale opened up, I got a pair for the second preview at a little more than I wanted to spend. There's now a much cheaper option for that same show, but I can't purchase it as it sets me over my limit. Thoughts/Assistance?

I'm pretty sure the only way would be to use someone else's account, and someone else's credit card, as long as their mailing address is different from yours.

Nice seats, nice price, almost dead center!"
If I hadn’t maxed out on tickets I would have bought them lol

There is no real way “around” the ticket limit - if you have purchased 6 - EVEN IF you have returned some of them (I am currently embroiled in a neverending email exchange with TM customer service about this and where it is stated in their policies, but it is a Sisyphean task...) - then you cannot purchase tickets under the same name, address, TM account, credit card, etc. I tested it using a different email and credit card (mostly out of curiousity), and no dice.
I don’t see why if you’re buying for a big group, though, that someone else can’t step up and handle it - it’s not that complicated! :)

That's both helpful and disappointing. Thank you for being continuously awesome --you and everyone in this thread!

Oh if I'd seen this earlier, I would've been tempted. I have tickets for that day. Orch RowO, 32-34. $199 per part. This would saved $210 and been more toward the center. 7 rows further back though. Hmm."
They're still available, if you're interested.

Thank goodness I'm working on making a decision and trying not to second guess myself. After sitting here for a few minutes debating, I've realized these tickets are for the week AFTER my trip! We have Frozen tickets and plane tickets. Definitely a sign I should be happy with what I have, lol!

Orchestra U 4 (one off the aisle) is available on Ticketmaster for Saturday 3/24, $155 per part. It's in my cart at the moment, will release at 11:33am.
EDIT: according to the seating chart they just released (https://www.harrypottertheplay.com/us/content/uploads/2018/03/TRT_P228_SeatingPlan_M2.pdf), there's no seat 6 next to this one (maybe a wheelchair spot?).
Looks like they're going the TodayTix route instead of their own website for Friday Forty. I feel like that's going to be worse than the how they do it in London.

Great to see the new seating chart. It confirmed my suspicions that I was all the way in the end of the row in the last row of the balcony hopefully it’s still a kinda decent view. Also, there are is a few $155 seats for March performance:
March 27/28

I got seats 21,23 on row D on the balcony and for months I was worried if they welould be partial or obstructed. Yesterday I fb messaged the lyric theater and this was their response:
"we have not released any obstructed or partial view seats so your view will be fine."
I'm all the way over on the side, too! Oh, well! I'm glad the theater is saying that none of the seats are partial view.
Thanks for posting the link, Wicked!
Anyone have a guess of what that weird V cut out is in the back of the Orchestra?

Maybe with them putting more seats in the mezz, they need to put a column or some sort of support...?

$189 ticket for March 22/23 row b seat 17 in the orchestra. It seems to be a very good seat so I’ll maintain in my cart until it expires just in case anyone here wants it. It’ll release in 10 minutes
The same seat, orchestra B 17, is available on Ticketmaster for 3/20-21, 3/22-23, 3/24, 3/27-28, & 3/29-30, $189 per part!

Are the boxes really in front of the mezzanine like that? Not so excited about my dress circle row A tickets now, if that is the case. Hmm...
