i tried to get some off ticketmaster so I could sell them on Ebay, but to no avail.

i make it my personal mission to report every eagles ticket sold over face value to ebay.

some actually get shut down (the morons who sell from PA to an event in PA are violating the law by selling more than 110% of face value)...i'm like a ticket scalping vigilante

I'm partially to blame here.  I have bought Eagles tickets above face value for the last five years (usually road games, though).  If there were none of my kind, there would be less online scalpers.

That said, I have made some decent money scalping tickets online -- none to Philly-area games though.  Almost always St. Louis stuff.  I figure I make money there, which allows me to spend money on the tickets I want.
The drawback to marital longevity is your wife always knows when you're really interested in her and when you're just trying to bury it.

i got through to ticketmaster at around 10:04, went through the automated thing

wow i got thru at exactly 10:00:00...i asked for four tickets tho...probably would have gotten them if i had went for a pair

i probably hit redial 100 times between 10:00 and 10:04 before i finally got through....the automated thing killed me.  took 5 minutes to get through all the options before it even searched for the tix.  then had to start all over to ask for tix for a different game.

lemonade was a popular drink and it still is

i dont blame those buying them.

i blame the teams/hosts for not having a better way to sell single seats.

...i would MUCH rather line up the night before in south philly than to rely on the intenet or phone to buy tickets.

but i did land a pair of seats. so it's not as bad as normal years.

i've called kansas city the last two year and had no problems at all, ame as this year.  the problem is it takes about 10 minutes to get through an entire order over the phone, by then almost everything is gone.

I don't understand what the "better" way would be, exactly.

When demand is greater than supply, there are going to be unhappy people.

yeah, i had to call...my employer has the ticketmaster site blocked.
when you call, you get an automated chick named kelly...she sounded hot but didn't come through with any tix.  i'd probably still farg her though.

make all these tickets will call tickets...where you have to pick them up with a picture id that matches the credit card that bought them on the day of the game

She's a typical woman though, talked too much, asked too many questions & I ended up frustrated by the end of the conversation.

I got 4 tickets to the only game I might actually be able to attend: Nov 19 vs. the Titans.

I also got one ticket for the Monday night Carolina game.  I'll offer it to PhillyPhreak54 at face value.

If Jay can't make it, you know I'm there for you.
