DonaldBrashear Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Renewal emails just went out for the 2016/17 Season. Prices are staying the same (as expected) with some lower priced lower bowl seats now added. So prices are actually dropping. Do you have season tickets? Will you be renewing?

DonaldBrashear Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 There is an "early bird renewal bonus" if you renew by March 4th. They really want to get people renewed I imagine. The renewal prizes are a lot more plentiful than last year but I was expecting a LOT more. Like a signed jersey for EVERYONE. --------- EARLY BIRD RENEWAL BONUS - MARCH 4th, 2016 By renewing by March 4, you'll have the opportunity to win one of the below! •500 - The first 500 members to renew receive a complimentary pair of tickets to a game this season. •10 - Pre-season suite rentals (2016.17 Season) •5 - Game worn jerseys presented by a player post-game (2016.17 Season) •5 - Team signed jerseys •1 - Opportunity to watch a game from the GM’s Box (2016.17 Season) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonaldBrashear Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 So I'm reading through the updated terms and I see this new little paragraph has been added. This is Definitely a new paragraph. 8. Tickets are intended for personal use by the Member and are not intended for commercial resale unless expressly authorized by CSE. CSE acknowledges that there may be circumstances where a Member requires the ability to resell Tickets for non-commercial purposes. CSE may provide or designate an authorized electronic ticket purchase, resale and/or transfer system(s) for use by the Member. Use of any such system(s) remains subject to the terms of this Agreement and any terms and conditions of the system (including those specified by any third party operator of the system). CSE may at any time in its sole discretion: (i) suspend, modify, replace and/or discontinue the system(s) and/or (ii) revoke or discontinue the Member’s access to and/or use of the system(s) for breach of this Agreement or the terms and conditions of the system. The Member acknowledges and agrees that, except through the use of any such system(s), the resale of a Ticket at a price higher than the box office price of the Ticket is prohibited. With everything going on with the Yankees (removing the "Print at home" feature) I wonder if the Canucks are going to crack down o n resale of tickets. They could very well implement a system that forces people to sell their tickets on Ticketmaster and not be able to use stubhub. Just something to keep in mind... read the fine print.

Sucks for season ticket holders. That just means the building will be more empty. I got a call to purchase season tickets but deciding not too. Been on the list for like 8 years. Tired of ownership mortgaging the future for short term gains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonaldBrashear Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 I laughed out loud at this: Finally, this is the time of year we traditionally share playoff ticket information as well. The new technology of the membership portal now allows us to communicate about playoffs at a later date. More details will be shared in the coming weeks. The "new technology" of the membership portal? Good god. Just say it... "We're probably not making the playoffs, so we aren't bothering to send playoff info out". Don't make up some crazy story. Pretty funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More perks but way less quality. Last year was worth way more money. This year they are just giving away stuff that would be empty anyways.

BCNeil Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Renewed my 6 seats right away. I got that free game last year for being in the first 500....it was lower bowl against colorado. Will be looking to move to upper bowl 4 this summer. I have good upper bowl 2 and they are barely going to break even. If the Canucks want people to use their ticket exchange, then they need to make it usable. Their lowest amount you can list for is too high for many games and they just won't sell. Otherwise the total fees are very close to stubhub, and in Canadian money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year I just traded my Tampa Bay tickets for Montreal. ST. Louis for 2 Edmonton games and a Calgary game. This might be the only reason I stay out of the red overall LOL Not sure they had a limit on how many tickets you can trade.....I will even swap my preseason Coyote game for the Oilers.

Tommi-Santala Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Been on the waitlist for 5 years now and been offered tickets for the past 2 seasons. Decided to get off the list this time around, money is way better spent elsewhere. Getting out to downtown every other night after work just seems like such a burden to, I'd rather relax on the comfort of a couch with cheap beer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brilac Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I have the Ice Pack, so maybe I will renew. I really have to think about it. It's probably still cheaper and I get more tickets than I would usually pay for if I did not have the Ice Pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least u won't lose much $$$.. With dynamic pricing, less like teams only cost $33 for UB4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With dynamic pricing, less like teams only cost $33 for UB4. That's what I have been noticing. For good games I am still more than making up the extra $20 UB2 cost. But for crap games. I am selling for $5-$10 more only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cleowin Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I think that clause is to prevent scalpers more so than personal selling. besides, we need to print tickets anyway, or use mobile entry and the system online has a transfer button, so i think selling to friends or family will be ok still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apple Juice Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I like that perk where you could win to watch a game from the GM box... Could have some great 1 on 1 time with Benning and co. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
