    Why were you taking losses on your tickets? I sold 30 of my 41 tickets online and made enough of a profit to cover all but $40 of my total costs. 11 pairs of tickets for $40, plus the first right to playoff tickets, it was a steal.

    I had no problem selling tickets against Memphis' and Sacramento's of the world for face value, after fees (when I used Stubhub). You asking price was clearly under market value or you were selling last minute.

    I guess it's the price point - mine are face value $145 each, my actual cost is under $110 I think. I was lucky to sell games like mid-week Memphis and Minny for $80 each, and sometimes took less, or couldn't sell them at all.

    hmm all I know is what the guy told me, maybe he is just saying that to urge us into buying sooner, even though he said they arent selling more until relocated seats in June.

    Anyone know if that private pre-sale on the 13th is just for full season ticket holders, or are quarter season ticket holders included? Did the full season ticket holders get an email or notification of that already?

    I'm not a STH but form what I understand its only for them, and they can only get them for the seats they have for this season.

    Season tickets holders either had to renew for next year and then pay as the play or pay up front for all the playoff tickets through the finals in one lump sum. I renewed. I probably would have anyway, but that seem a bit strong armed to me.
