I bought some tickets yesterday during the presale and was able to get some pretty ####ty seats. I logged in this morning when the general public sale started and there are some many more options for better seats compared with the presale. I'm pretty disappointed with the available seats in the presale as I definitely would have waited until today if I knew that much better seats would have been available.

I’m not sure if I understand my pricing for the additional tickets correctly. Does anyone know what tier 225 R9 would fall under? The cost seems higher per game than the table they had sent.

Yea I'm surprised in how many tickets were available this morning. Still lots left too. Wish I had waited and could have gotten cheaper seats.



The 20 minute notice of putting them up for sale certainly must have the amount of people trying to grab them way down.

Yeah, that's pretty questionable IMO to artificially hold back seats during a presale, only to release them the day after. I understand that scarcity helps sell tickets (and that otherwise some of those crappy seats might not sell); it is evident they are managing the release of tickets in order to maximize sales.

Definitely pushing more pricey tickets during the presale.

I was also surprised with the number of tickets available today. Managed to pick up a decently priced pair of whites for game 2.

I got on yesterday right when the presale started and it definitely didn't seem like they were pushing expensive seats. For any of the games there was about a dozen in the lower bowl and maybe a dozen gold seats and a few Grill seats. The rest were singles or PL in the last 5 rows.

Definitely annoying. I was looking for another pair of Blue Centers, but since those weren’t available, ended up picking pricier tickets.

Yesterday there was lots of blues and lots of center-blues... and virtually no greens. There was lots of greens today.

There was a pile of bleeders both days.

Just out of curiosity, if you sell your tickets through ticketmaster and use the seller credit payment option, does that automatically just go against your Flames account and reduce your balance owing?

Typically I just sell my tickets for cash, but thinking of utilizing their resale system for my playoff tickets and just curious how it works.

No idea, if you don't get an answer here though I made a playoff tickets thread in Fire & Ice too to ask about the schedule (thought it would get more traffic)

Blues in pairs for the presale yesterday? I definitely did not see any of those or else I would have bought them. I wonder if they had some sort algorithm that was filtering different seats for different Ticketmaster accounts if that is possible?

When I searched I basically got press level and my friend got decent whites, and we were on at same time. Seems like dumb luck

I sold 3 pairs of tickets this past season. I was on the monthly payment plan with the Flames. The credit went against the balance and reduced the future monthly payments. In fact, the last pair I sold was applied to my 22/23 season as I was paid up for the current season at the time.

Prices are way up, sure, but its a luxury item and how often do the Flames have this good of a shot? (at least thats how I sold the wife on it! )
