Premium Orchestra Seats for It's Only a Play Saturday Must Be Sold!

Forgive me if this is a little spammy. My wife purchased these tickets the day they went on sale. Now we cannot be in NYC on Saturday. I'm not looking to make money but am just hoping to get what we paid. Given that brokers are charging over $500/ea for Premium Orchestra that seems reasonable.

3 Premium Orchestra Row H
Saturday 10/18 2:00pm
$249/ea.

Take some friendly advice

Reduce the asking price. People know you are desperate to dump them . Add to that the rather decidedly mixed reviews the show received and it is not the "hot" ticket you think it .

I would not pay what you paid for any show . What you think is a fair price may not be to most. Cut your losses and try and get whatever you can.

Thank you for your advice. I understand that you would never pay this price for a show. Are you offering a different amount?

I don't think the asking price is an issue, though I'll admit the late date and the fact that I have 3 tickets to sell do limit the audience. The show has been sold out for weeks and Mezzanine tickets are selling for over $200. The average sales price on StubHub for non-premium seats for this Saturday matinee (not asking price, but actual completed sale price data over the last 2 weeks) is over $625.00/ticket! Am I missing something?

My wife and I are both on Soc Sec (my wife was forced into it)

As a result, we rarely go and spend nowhere near this.Add to this my apathy toward Broadway.I respectfully decline.

Good luck.

It's short notice, those aren't anywhere near front row seats, and you are reselling them. People want a discount considering you absolutely need to get rid of them. I'd sell them for $100 a piece. Oh, and it's a matinee.

I assume you have a listing on stub hub? If so, it sounds like they would sell pretty quickly at your asking price if the average sale price is so much higher. As you said, you will have an issue selling 3 at once. I would offer to sell 1,2 or 3. As a person who sells tickets all the time on stub hub, I think you will sell them more effectively if you allow purchase of 1, 2, or 3. I already have tickets later this year for the play but good luck to you ... and Jordan, thank you, you made me laugh really hard :o)
