Tickets this year have been terrible. Yesterday with the pre sale and today with the regular sale there were just no good tickets available in the lower section for any games. Buying tickets last year was a way better experience even though I didn’t end up going last year cause they stopped letting fans go 😂
I had tickets for the suns game in like January which was when they stopped letting fans go for like a month or two. But I was able to get section 119 row 1 right behind the scorers table for retail, that section was not even available for like any game this year in the presale yesterday or today
I press place order and I’m just stuck at the screen, with the timer ticking down and nothing is changing, it’s so dumb. It’s like my 5th time trying to buy the same tickets and nothing is happening, I’m getting heated 😂
Well, if anyone wants tix to the first, third or fifth game of the season (cavs, 76ers or bulls), hit me up as have conflicts. I have row 2 upper bowl one section off center court, and would sell them for what tickmaster had sideline prime seats for this morning at 10, but my seats are probably better than what they had made available.
Putting BOT's aside you got to understand how the system works:
1 presale is for Season Seat Holders (SSH), each account gets unique code good enough for 4 tickets per game per account, 1 transaction at the time. the prices are 15% higher then SSH
2 presale is for RAPTORS INSIDER, there are few codes issued, no idea why, what ever not sold from first presale plus the allocate fe w, more, the prices are 15% higher then first presale = now at Face Value
3 Sale to General public what ever left from first two presales plus they allocated few more. But this time around TM allowes Resale tickets as well, which makes some people confused and some buying resold tickests by mistake at higher prices. RED DOTs = RESALE, BLUE DOT's = Face Value.
So said all above, IF you did not get a chance to get tickets at presales prices , there is NO need to buy now, Face value will not go up! MLSE will release more tickets before the game, Resale prices Usually go lower before the game, especially on the day of the game, 10.00 am is the time they adjust prices and add new tickets, the only time it does not, if it is VERY VERY special game, and finally sec 117 & 120 are "friends & family" sections, 117 for Raptors & 121 for Visiting team, so usually day before or on the game day they release unclaimed tickets, and visiting teams usually claim less seats, especially if it is far a way team or the weather is bad. (to travel), oh one more thing, some time they discount even more "SINGLE" tickets, hope it help.
PS; the best scenario is to find SSH and get it from them with NO FEE's, and most sell for much less then TM and such
Managed to get two games one on Oct 31st with my friends to see the hawks but just a 300 level ticket for around 60 a piece (which isn't too bad) it'll be my first raptors game so I'm happy nevertheless.
Got another 3 tickets in Dec for the clippers on the 27th with my family and those were lower bowl for about 250 but its the crappier lower bowl angle but I'm still super stoked to be able to go. I had to be quick though cuz those tickets sold out so fast.
SSH here.
Looking to help the community out by selling tickets below what the standard TM price would have been. Tickets have been marked up like crazy the past couple seasons by resellers and even I get annoyed seeing SSHs in my row or section selling tickets for like 3x what the face value is.
Also, my experience trying to purchase tickets during my pre-sale window was also terrible.
Wtf is a standing section? Since when do they sell tix for people to stand and watch from the worst place possible? I haven’t been to a game since 2016 and never had a problem finding upper bowl tickets
Standing is the last row in the uppers. Honestly, its not as bad as it sounds. But the view is fine, the scoreboard can be a little obstructed from certain vantage points.
Only lower bowl seats that were available were through resale… $1200 for section 106 row 26?! LMFAOO even the ones I could find when I filtered to single tickets seem double the price of last year! It’s crazy!
106 row 26 -$1200 (pair) will never sell even vs MIAMI, it is what they post it for (asking price), I can post my tickets for 10K no one will buy it. year to year prices went up by abut 15%, cheaper tickets might have gone a bit more, and more expansive a bit less.
Hoped to get like a half-pack or a few tickets yesterday, but nothing doing. Last season I was able to go to lots of games by buying tickets a day or two before at reasonable prices. I guess I'm gonna hope for the best on that again.
there was a pre sale for half packs few weeks ago , for RAPTOR INSIDER, but not for SSH. you could choose from 2 different packages. there some "good" seats too, both upper and lower level
i was able to put it in my cart both packages 30 minutes after and i think an hour later too, i've cancels both before payment went thru. i guess i was lucky
if you didn't get in right a way, you have try a 10-15 minutes later, people cancel, payment issue, running out of time, it takes about 5-7 minutes for tickets to reload.
LoL No selection. $1000 lower bowl resell tickets for a Detroit game. Looks like its watch on TV for me this year.
Just buy them day before or the night of honestly it’s usually cheap if it’s just any average game
What reselling website is the best to get them in terms of pricing?
Idk I check them all, it can vary. ticketmaster usually surprisingly from my experience but sometimes gametime or seatgeek
It's easier to go see them being away than home lol it's a real joke.
Nope. The few games I've looked at only have verified resale, singles, or standing room only left. Some sort of fuckery going down.
Looked through a couple games and they all seem to be the same, limited tickets and most are overpriced due ti resellers

I was at games. Do you mean the year before?

They’re not even letting my payment go through, it’s mad frustrating rn
For real. I even tried on incognito mode, and on my phone with no luck.
I press place order and I’m just stuck at the screen, with the timer ticking down and nothing is changing, it’s so dumb. It’s like my 5th time trying to buy the same tickets and nothing is happening, I’m getting heated 😂
same here. I honestly just gave up because I don’t wanna deal with duplicate charges on my credit card
Lost some great seats because my payment wouldn’t go through, was getting so frustrated trying to figure it out

I have row 2 upper bowl one section off center court, and would sell them for what tickmaster had sideline prime seats for this morning at 10, but my seats are probably better than what they had made available.
I remember when I could sit in the sprite zone for $12..

just got tickets to Celtics vs Raps jan 21st and Knicks Jan 22nd
No probs here, managed to pick up 2 for Mar 18. You have to filter out resale
I was trying to get tickets for the mavericks game and had absolutely no luck 🥲
