RockRaines Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 (edited) Ladies and gentlemen. I know the ticketmaster fiasco of 2005 was very rough for many of you. But have no fear. Ticket prices are dropping quickly. I just snagged 4 for 75 eacah for tonights game for a friend and I have a feeling that the prices will continue to drop. Keep checking craigslist and ebay, and dont be afraid to go down to the park and see what you can find. It seems like the demand is not as great as expected, and scalpers are realizing the sox fans dont pay 2500 for a single ticket. Good luck all.

Good luck all. 4 people I directed to Jimbo's for both DS games got tickets for less than $50 over face. Where there's a will there's a way.

LosMediasBlancas Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 YEP, prices are tumbling. I'd be careful at the park though, might be some counterfeits going around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockRaines Posted October 11, 2005 Author Share Posted October 11, 2005 I agree, also asking for single tickets almost assures you of a cheap price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A group of 6 bought tickets all in 108 and 109 for game 2 at face because they were ok with sitting apart. Spent most of the time on the RF concourse anyway.

tonyho7476 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 My best offer today is $250 a piece, for 3rd base side. I'm shocked. Still debating it. Damn, wish the Yankees would have made it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were holding a ton of tix, but now that the Yankees are done, they are unloading them. This morning they ahd come down in price to like $160.00 for UD.
