Not looking to rape anyone, but maybe make a little over face? I've got 4 tickets, section 218, and a parking pass.

Thoughts/opinions/flames?

Face Value + 5 dollars

9/27/2010 10:55:31 AM

$whatever

9/27/2010 10:56:38 AM

sell them for $20 to me

9/27/2010 11:02:01 AM

put em on craigslist, say highest bidder in 3 days gets the whole package.

i bet you'll score big.

9/27/2010 11:04:50 AM

put them on ebay with the starting bid of face-5 per ticket

and set a buy it now of 125% of face per ticket

and just see what happens

demand seems to be high now, you should do fine

but wherever you go, get a bidding war started,that way you win regardless

"Thirteen states have laws that prohibit ticket scalping. These states are Arkansas, Connecticut, Florida, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Rhode Island, and South Carolina. However, I must be clear that the laws are not all cut and dried. That is, some states allow resellers to impose a service charge ranging from a couple bucks to 10 percent of the face value "

Just FYI

9/27/2010 11:15:13 AM

^ that's why you should avoid ebay. (plus they take a cut)

stick to the back alleys of craigslist.

and 125% over face value may be selling yourself short. the whole package - four seats plus parking - may inspire some VT or State alumni.

That's why they sell a poster for $300 bucks and the tickets are free.

9/27/2010 11:17:42 AM

ok 150 then

ebay has never bothered me about selling over face, and i have done it for a long time

yes they take a cut, but paypal makes sure you have your money whereas meeting someone with cash is a little risky anyway

9/27/2010 11:18:01 AM

never put an upper limit on what people might be willing to cough up for something that strikes their fancy.

the last two time i have had hot tickets on ebay, the ending price was higher than where the buy it now was, cause it goes poof after the first bid

unless you are one of those reserve assholes, put your fucking minimum in the listing and dont be a pussy

^yes, and i dont like getting raped, unless the girl is hot as fuck

9/27/2010 11:21:53 AM

sell them to NyM

9/27/2010 11:27:32 AM

dont forget folks, therealramet may be able to get you a "pepsi"

9/27/2010 11:29:29 AM

You shouldn't ripoff fellow Pack fans.

Feel free to facefuck VT fans though.

9/27/2010 11:29:31 AM

^well said

9/27/2010 11:31:11 AM

I mean, I don't want to fuck anyone over too bad, but this is probably the hottest ticket in NCSU home football in about 10 years.

I've bought season tickets for the last 4 years, all the while suffering miserably, so if I want to juice someone up a little bit to make some money off these tickets, I don't care if they are NCSU, VT or UNC, their money still spends the same.

9/27/2010 11:36:01 AM

^^not so much, because that means he should sell his tickets to VT fans which is all kinds of wrong

9/27/2010 11:40:15 AM

Just wanted to throw out a little fuck you for all of you State fans out there gouging your fellow Alumni on tix that you aren't enough of a fan to use for yourself.

Why don't you just go stand on Trinity with an I NEED TICKETS sign and a pack of Winstons.

That is all.

9/27/2010 11:41:34 AM

if you really want to throw a fuck you to someone, go up to the scalpers that are there every game, and say fuck you to their faces

9/27/2010 11:43:45 AM

to answer the orig question though, i'm not sure how much in demand/hot section 218 tickets will be. if you had something on the sidelines you'd probably be able to demand more...but 218 is pretty meh

just watch craigslist and see what other meh tickets are getting. the market will tell you how much you can get for them, not us.

9/27/2010 11:44:06 AM

^^^yo, fuck you homey. I spent my hard earned money on these tickets, in essence funding the football program, and we've been putting a losing product out there for the past few years...

If I feel like making some of that dough back, while I'll be out of town for previously scheduled plans, then I feel like I've earned it. Buy low, sell high my friend. Just cause you and I went to the same school doesn't mean I really give a fuck about you.

[Edited on September 27, 2010 at 11:47 AM. Reason : ^]

9/27/2010 11:47:06 AM

yeah getting dough back is hard, i once tried to use some old biscuits in a new mix

it didnt work, good luck!

9/27/2010 11:51:35 AM

fuck the haters. you're entitled to sell those tickets to whoever wants them.

some ncsu alum with money to burn, he bids what he wants to pay for them. he takes his friends to the game, tailgates in the parking lot, has a good time.

you have no compulsion to sell at face, if these whiners can't their own goddamned tickets ahead of time, they'll cough up whatever the market will bear.

they're just fucking fair-weather fans anyhow, like you said, you've been supporting wolfpack athletics for years.

You can rationalize being an asshole all you want. At the end of the day, you're still an asshole.

9/27/2010 11:59:56 AM

9/27/2010 12:01:36 PM

and you're the asshole that thinks you should get something for less than it's value just because we went to the same school.

well, fuck you buddy, I'm an asshole.

I like how every NCSU ticket thread involves NCSUStinger.

I wish I was an expert on tickets.

9/27/2010 12:07:40 PM

You're intending to sell them for $150 a piece? You can't be serious. NyM410 and I are definitely looking for a group of 4 tickets and a parking pass, but am not gonna go anywhere near that high.

I'd respectably disagree and say that our game against OSU and Miami years back were more desireable. It's definitely up there though!

the resale market for concert and game tickets this year has been abysmal.

it's not the cash cow it used to be.

stupid economy!

These guys will stand there with that sign around their neck, or in one hand, and a handful of tickets in the other hand. My stepbrother always rolls down his window and tells them to look in their other hand. Always makes me chuckle.

Pretty sure he means 150% of face value.

word.

when these moochers start inviting me over to their barbeques and deep sea fishing trips just because we went to the same college at some point in history.... then, i'll start giving them sweet deals on shit i bought.

Those were a hot item back in the day. The VT opener with Marcus Vick at QB was a highly sought after ticket as well.

Cheapest seats on stubhub are around $150/ticket right now.

9/27/2010 3:11:49 PM

^any idea where those seats are located?

because according to one douche on here, 218 is just meh. Ha! What a joke.

$150 per seat, huh? I wonder what it will be on Friday...

9/27/2010 3:34:12 PM

There were at least two sets that I saw this morning in the upper level going for that price. There's also a separate parking pass up there for $50 at the moment. That's not to say anything will actually sell, but prices are also looking fairly similar on craigslist.

Looks like it's Sammy's for me
