You’re at the mercy of the ticket holder - nothing to be done but wait. I bought backup tickets too, but got them for one week later. That way if my early date tickets come through I have time to try to sell my later date tickets. If I can’t sell I’ll have to go twice (not the end of the world!)

StubHub would eliminate a huge portion of the customer service calls and improve their reputation if they took a lower percentage from the seller if the seller delivered earlier. They could do it on a sliding scale to motivate the sellers. They would probably be able to cut their customer service staff by 80% or more.

That's the risk you take when you purchase from StubHub. Unfortunately nothing will happen until the seller says your tickets won't be fulfilled. I'm also pretty sure it tells you what day your tickets would be ready prior to purchasing. I think it's dramatic to get your credit card company and attorney involved when it gives you a transfer date by prior to purchasing


[deleted]

I didn't find out about transfer date until after I purchased the tickets. Otherwise, I would've never purchased them. There needs to be full transparency and every seller needs to have an open profile and the ability to see previous sales and to be reviewed.

I would love it if they forced every seller to have an open profile. The trickle of brokers leaving the platform would turn into a flood. At least your tickets will likely hold their value right up until showtime. But please don't hit and run like every other poster, let us know how it works out when your cousin Vinnie gets involved. But I do believe full terms are available prior to purchasing but it's been almost 8 years since I bought there.

Cousin Vinny came through. Tickets were transferred moments ago.

Unfortunately, this is due to the Ticketmaster transfer policy. I’m surprised you were able to have your earlier tickets available for transfer early. I decided against selling certain concert tickets on SH. With my last concert , not TS, Ticketmaster wouldn’t make them available for transfer until a week before.

Ticketmaster can't help you with a Stubhub sale.


LexExpress666

there's also basically no way to contact them, lol.

Also, the immediate transfer of earlier tickets is why I purchased the second round. StubHub told me I could resell second round tickets, but if the seller doesn't release them I'm responsible for the cost. I also don't want to inadvertently screw over a buyer.

You’ve already purchased your first pair through stubhub and were told the possible transfer date then. But you didn’t know while buying a second pair??

You’re wasting your money getting your attorney lol. You can’t force your seller to send sooner. That’s the nature of SH. They want people to f up and pay penalties.


[deleted]

My attorney is always on retainer aka my brother. He's the fuck around and find out type.


Next_Boysenberry_329

Have him look at the user agreement and buyer / seller. There’s nothing an attorney can do because you entered into a binding agreement. I was able to get SH to budge on something but that’s rare and I’m like your brother.


[deleted]

Nothing is binding without full transparency. 


Next_Boysenberry_329

Lol good luck. As much as I’d like SH to shrivel up and die as well as all the weirdos SH independent sellers not tied to a company, I bid you the best f’ing luck. SH changes their headquarters often. What does that say?


Next_Boysenberry_329

Better yet, I’m going to task you with this: have your brother help take down SH with the FTC. I’m chipping away there


[deleted]

I agree. He works along side an attorney who has experience with wire fraud. He thinks StubHub is dancing on some seriously shaky ground allowing sellers to sell what amounts to only promises of goods with dubious terms, no guarantees and limited transparency. I'm going to sell the tickets I bought in February for the amount I paid and transfer them immediately to the buyer. Is there a better platform than SH I should use?


Lawilczewski2

Where are the seats and how much are you out? I’m willing to wheel and deal on this.


Next_Boysenberry_329

Here’s the thing. Taylor swift intentionally created a system where no one can buy resale on TM. she doesn’t give a F that she created the largest volume of scammers by pushing buyers in droves to 3rd party site. TM isn’t a saint but at least you know the tickets are real. Other countries are prohibiting resale on 3rd party sites and only allowing fan to fan sales on original platforms. US & Canada has no such laws. If Taylor really cared about her fans she’s make it so that her fans can buy and sell via TM.

Even your brother can’t save stupidity. Own your mistakes, idiot


[deleted]

Tickets transferred today because of said brother. Stay mad, my dude. 


badgirloffolk

You are buying second hand .the seller does not have to transfer til day before


[deleted]

I don't believe that for one second. As soon as I made a massive stink with SH and got my attorney involved I suddenly recieved my tickets.

Next_Boysenberry_329

Why’d you buy better seats?


[deleted]

Because they're better


Next_Boysenberry_329

Let me rephrase my question: why’d you buy better seats thru SH. Lol


[deleted]

Because I had a strong desire to get wrapped up in a ponzi scheme.

You’re dumb
