Taylor Swift Tour

[Anonymous]

Just perusing through stubhub-not a single tickets that is less than $600. That is just horrible and we’re talking upper level tickets selling for that price. Floor tickets selling for $12,000. They clearly infiltrated the sale and bought up tickets or TM willfully let it happen. There’s no way these are all individual resales. I hope TS addresses this because the show is for her fans and I feel for these superfans of hers who genuinely thought the presale would be exclusive and bought into the hype of being boosted for the sale. I did manage to secure two tickets during the presale for DD, but in a way I feel guilty reading some of these stories of ppl who set their entire day aside for this and truly just wanted to be at this show and had waited for the tour. It shouldn’t be this way.

Taylor isn’t personally overseeing ticketmaster presale. Ticketmaster is bad. Monopolies are bad and should be broken up.

Every time there's a big presale, Ticketmaster flops and releases a statement that includes the words "due to unprecedented demand".

It happened with BTS, Harry Styles, Reputation tour, etc.

The thing is, there's no alternative. There's no competitor who can even come close to handling the volume of sales that Ticketmaster does on even its worst day. Even if Taylor and other big acts pulled their tickets from TM, there's no service that could handle the volume of sales. The amount TM probably spends on server maintenance and upgrades on a presale release day is more than any single artist can do on their own.

The simplest solution is to kill the reselling market. The easiest way to do that is to a) allow ticket refunds and b) only allow admittance with photo ID & the cc used to purchase the tickets.

They could release each individual show on its own day. Like exactly 6 months out or whatever. There is not reason for them to all go at once. And I agree about the resale market needing to end.

Yes, Ticketmaster should only allow resale at face value + taxes or lower, but not higher. And no option to resell on Stubhub.

I hope the Stubhub/Ticketmaster resale market never ends. I got expensive tickets to The Who, Roxy Music, Haim, Arcade Fire, and more for a small fraction of the original cost. You just need to be patient and wait until the last day or two of the sale. And if the prices don't go down on the show you want, no big whoop, It's just one concert of many options.

For those who had the sweet presale code access to yesterday, can you use two people on two separate computers (using the same ticketmaster account and code), or does that mess up the system? In other words, for today, if a family has one capital one card, can two people simultaneously try to get tickets using the same ticketmaster account and credit card? Thank you!

No, you will keep getting booted. Only one device logged in per Ticketmaster account. Don’t even have a second tab open.

I did the presale yesterday and would suggest not using the same account on 2 different computers. Just use two diff accounts but the same card. There were rumors yesterday that ppl were getting kicked out for having the same account open on more than one browser. I did not and was successful but honestly think it comes down to luck and when you’re let into the ticket sale. Maybe cap one will be diff.

ugh, feeling left out....52 pages of this post isn't helping ($500/ ea tix, coveted access codes, CO cc holders, scoring 6 tix!...) now seems so unattainable to me and Dd .

It was a mess from beginning to end and Ticketmaster charged an enormous service fee for that mess. Some of the service fee should be refunded.

Thank you! Was your credit card number already in your ticketmaster account so you were ready to click submit?

NP here and avid Ticketmaster used because I'm obsessed with concerts. You cannot log into multiple devices with the same account: ex you cannot use the app on your phone and also be on your desktop/laptop trying multiple ways in the queue. Their system will immediately identify you as already being logged in and will usually give you a choice of whether you want to stay logged in the first place you were logged in or if you want to log out of the first option and be logged in the second. HOWEVER, during crazy sales it may just kick you out all together. I've BTDT and every single time I get caught trying to log into another way because I was anxious the first log in was too slow to wasn't working.

It's not luck. You can't have your account open on multiple tabs, browsers or anywhere else. You also should not use copy and paste as the system might think you're a bot and kick you out. Always best to manually type everything out.

If your kid like Haim, you could have seen them for eight bucks at Anthem and called it a day.

They are nosebleeds, so I am considering selling them (at face value), but I see in my Ticketmaster account that I cannot resell them, just "transfer" them. How does that work? If I know the person I am selling them to, i.e. if I have their email address/phone number and they pay me offline, can I transfer them easily? Has anyone ever done that? I am hoping to have better luck with seats closer to the stage at the general sale.

You won’t have any trouble selling these tickets. As someone mentioned above, you can do it in person at a safe location like a police station. if I were you, I would advertise this on a neighborhood listserv.

If I got tickets, I would tell my kids, I didn't and then sell them on Stubhub and go on a nice vacation by myself.
