Cheapest way to get tickets?
 
I just got raped out the ass in service fees for next weeks raw. I'm sure going right to the stadium would be the cheapest way to get a ticket to the show but besides that what are other cheap methods?

Be caller #9 on your local radio station.

There must be another way, a really cheap site.....groupon.

James Steele 09-17-2012 10:57 PM

Did they not have "Print At Home" or "Will Call" options?

Isn't 7-10 day USPS usually free? I always use that when I buy concert tickets.

No, I was looking for those options too, I think I'd still get hit with that bullshit service fee though. the website was "www.tickets-center.com".....wont use that again

Look for Cryme Tyme outside. I'm sure they will be selling tickets...

Gass 09-18-2012 09:21 AM

Why didn't you just...not buy...the tickets once you saw what the service fees were going to be, and look around elsewhere?

loopydate 09-18-2012 10:02 AM

Stubhub?

James Steele 09-18-2012 01:26 PM

Go to www.wwe.com and they will have a link to the preferred ticket vendor. I imagine almost any online ticket sale will have some kind of service fee.

Wasn't informed of the service fee until after the purchase, unless it was somewhere hidden on screen, I don't believe they showed it. I was expecting a service fee but not for each ticket....WWE uses ticketmaster which turns out is a dollar more expensive.

Never tried stub-hub, does it usually have cheaper prices?

StubHub is the way to go and if for some reason if the seller u buy your ticket from is unable to send it to u. Stubhub will call you and let you pick any ticket you want no matter the cost. I bought 2 front row seats for Raw a few months ago during presale I stumbled upon them on stubhub for 150.00 each . Bought them up right then and there. Got a call from Stubhub 2 days later saying the seller was unable to send them. Looked on stubhub they had front row seats for 300.00 each got them both for the 150.00 price. Stubhub charges a standard shipping fee but i dont remember if the seller or buyer pays it. and there is a small processing fee.

The only way to bypass all the bullshit fees and entertainment taxes is to simply go to the stadium/arena box office itself physically usually outside the stadium. WWE sometimes has their pre sales only available on ticketmaster which sucks since if you want to avoid the fees you will miss out on seat selection since the box office won't have them available.

I used to work next to the Allstate Arena here in Chicago and got around a lot of those fees by doing that. Plus you might by other events there any get by the extra fees for those as well.

Side note: Every televised event (WCW/WWF) I have ever went to the WHC has changed hands, look for Ziggler to cash in next week.

Never use a website that has a hyphen in it.

#1-norm-fan 09-18-2012 03:59 PM

Why are you against just getting the tickets when you get there? It IS the cheapest way.

Savio 09-18-2012 05:40 PM

3,
A Thunder in 2000 when David Arquette won.
WMX8 When HHH beat Jericho
When Goldberg defeated HHH at unforgiven.

Mercenary 09-18-2012 05:56 PM

I use tickrtmaster tbh. I never use the other site cause fuckers jack up the seat price by 40 bucks or more.

I am going to mark out if Ziggler cashes in. Don't think it will happen, but you have a streak to uphold, man. Dating back to 2000. A fucking streak.

Savio 09-18-2012 10:04 PM

The Streak will live on (20-0)

Most ticket agencies buy out what is at the box office so the team, company, or league can say it's a "sell out."

Savio 09-21-2012 02:02 PM

Might not be able to go, company still did not send the tickets.

Schlomey 09-21-2012 02:22 PM

I shouldn't have bought those tickets....but I got high
I should have checked on ebay too....but I got high
Now I'm broke as fuck...and I know why (why man? hey hey)
because I got high because I got high because I got high
