Was that for the presale, or the whole show???

I must really be going mad with this obsession I have about the selling and re-selling of these Miley Tickets. When I began to notice these brokers and scalpers selling tickets for way high and how they had bought lots and lots I begin to look into the legal aspect of all this (my DH is a investigator). I knew Tennessee had no re-sell laws but I wanted to see what other states where doing. And the results where off the wall. More and more states are letting the laws lapse when it comes to re-sell. They are saying that it is going to happen anyway, so people can buy tickets and sell them for what ever they want. (you know people are going to do drugs anyway also but we don't make them legal) Brokers (high paid scalpers) of course where overjoyed at this because they say Ticketmaster has had the hold long enough. (Ticketmaster was selling tickets for $53.00 not $253.00 like scalpers) The brokers and scalpers says this is free-trade.

Well if you happen to go to the Stub-Hub website (and a few others) they, yesterday, had tickets for sale to Hannah Montana concerts that had not even gone on sale to the pre-sale people yet. (I emailed them and asked them how this can be and as of this morning have not got an answer back but I did notice you can't them anymore. The only one who e-mailed me back was a guy from Rupp Arena in Ky and told me this was false that they where only offering what they hoped to have) And if you look at tickets for the Hartford, Connecticut show (at Stub-Hub), you and your kids can sit on the floor for $25,000.00 A TICKET. How is this free-trade? A $63.50 ticket is now being sold at 400 times the orginal price. ANd if the state laws are not going to do anything about this then the only ones who will suffer will be us poor and middle class who don't have the means of tying up ticket offices and grabbing up tickets like brokers and scalpers do and don't have the money to pay house payment prices on shows.

I am losing my mind on this I know. I just get so fired up about injustice that I want to start a boycott war and march to Washington. Pray for Me I need another vacation

DD asked me yesterday how her friend had tickets if they weren't even on sale yet. I didn't have the answer. Turns out the mother bought them from a scalper who promises to deliver them in October. How can these scalpers promise certain seats?

My husband said it is because the brokers have contracts to purchase so many seats from each show. These contracts allow them to get their actual seats before they go on sale to the public.

 

[casnider]

I am still confused as to how they are allowed contracts to get tickets...just doesn't seem fair.

Of course if everyone would not buy from them they would eventually go under.

 

[cancer_survivor_06]

Does anyone know if the tickets for houston have gone onsale yet or if they are sold out.

 

[ksumn1]

I plan on buying tix for the Nov 28 show in Duluth, GA. From everything I've read here, I think I'll forego the presale throught the website (had planned on subscribing) and take my chances when they go onsale through Ticketmaster. I haven't told my DD anything because I'm not sure I'll be able to get tix. And there's NO WAY I can afford to buy them at the markup prices. So I've got my fingers croseed, and if it doesn't work out we'll take a trip to the aquarium, or somewhere else as a birthday present.

 

[INDISMOM]

My location is finally listed on Ticketmaster, but it does not have the presale date listed -- just the general public date.

The Mileysworld site still lists a presale date, so I am just trying to find out what is going on. Anyone else have this problem?

Is this a fact? How and where did your husband get that info? Does he work for a venue or place that does this?

 

[sskem96]

One way they might know they have certain seats available is if they have season tickets to the arena.

Our local arena (which isn't hosting Miley, but does occasionally have big name concerts) hosts a hockey team and an arena league football team. Certain groups, like beer distributers, purchase season tickets that not only admit them to all the games, but also guarantee those same seats for any special events during the season. I know for sure that Miller and Budwiser both have a club box. They still have to pay extra for the special events, and if they don't pay by a certain date, then those seats are released to the public. My DH works in a grocery store and is frequently given free tickets to sit in the club box with the vendors , so that's where he got the info.

Did anyone have any luck with the Minneapolis presale today? I tried for 12-15 minutes. The only thing that came up (after 4 or 5 attempts) was $66 tickets (when you include all the extra fees) in the NOSE BLEED section!! I can't/won't pay that price for the nosebleed section.

We are going to wait til Saturday for the regular sale & see if we have better luck.

Anyone have better luck?

 

[Osjah&Landon'sMom]

I'm not so sure I am going to buy when my presale comes or otherwise. This whole sham about joining the site for crappy presale tickets and prepromising tickets to freaking beer vendors for a kiddie concert ticks me off... I may just have to boycot... it's not like we haven't already seen her 3 times anyway...

I was able to get 4 tickets. I was on the site when it opened up. First time I put in my code it didn't work (didn't know they all had to be capital letters). Finally got it to work. I got section 133 - (Lower Level) Row L. Figured I best get them or I figured I might not get anything and I will be out of town on Saturday when the regular seats go on sale.

I was on immediately when they opened, also. Code worked just fine, but there was nothing available. We'll see what happens on Saturday.

For what it is worth, I was able to get tickets during the presale, but I couldn't get anything when the general public sale opened (not even single tickets). And I was online when the general public sale opened. This was for the Glendale (Phoenix) AZ show.

I know there's a risk of not getting any. The kids know it, too. I'm a true believer - if it happens, it happens. If not, we can put the money towards Disney!!!!!

My husband said it is because the brokers have contracts to purchase so many seats from each show. These contracts allow them to get their actual seats before they go on sale to the public.

Many venues set aside a percentage of seats for advance group ticket sales.
I bought Wicked tickets that way. I had to purchase a minimum of 20 seats and pay a deposit almost a year before they went on sale to the general public. I knew exactly what seats I would have, even though I did not receive the actual tickets until after the official on sale date. That particular venue allowed you to buy group seats on a show by show basis, some places require you to purchase the same seats for the entire season (which really helps them out with the shows/events no one is interested in)

Also, as was posted earlier, if the concert is in a venue where there are season ticket holders they are generally able to keep their seats (and sometimes get extras) for any show. The Miley/Hannah show is being held at the hockey arena here. DH's company has season tickets, so they have concert tickets as well. Of course one of their pesky customers requested the Miley seats before DH got around to checking on them for me... so we're still tough out of luck.

Good luck to all - it is really frustrating!

 

[memymomonica]

Just got 4 tix for the Greensboro, NC show. Not the best, but not horrible either. I may try to get some during the general sale. Just to see if I can get better. I know I wouldn't have a problem selling the other 4 to friends. Just want to get the best seats possible. It is DD's first concert. We are making a girl's night with her best friend and her mom. Anyone else get any?

 

[StacyPop]

Oh Yeah! 2 on the floor baby!!!
WOOHOO!
My DD is going to faint when I tell her.
I passed up the lower lever and kept trying and i got so excited when it came up floor!
Just what I wanted!
Good luck to everyone!!!
