DonaldBrashear Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Looks like the GST/PST/local taxes on stubhub is now alive for the Canada version. I had a sale and the email format has changed. I didn't get charged any tax though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually made the listing with stubhub.com, and not stubhub.ca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckGAME Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 If any season ticket holders went to tonight's game (home opener VS Flames) I'm trying to get a few ticket stubs from the game tonight. Please PM me if you are able to help. Thanks a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepress83 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Just bought my season tickets for the warriors just FYI Canucks season ticket members get a discount on lacrosse tickets. I didn't know this until I spoke to my rep but it definitely helps, I saved almost $100 on my pair in 117. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 It seems that my info about the Sedins ceremony was incorrect. Sorry guys.... Other topic, I just traded my Pittsburgh's tickets for Montreal. From UB4 Defense to UB4 offense. I had to pay 3$ something extra per ticket. There are still some UB4 Offensive zone tickets available for the Canadiens' game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice to see them announce the dates before tickets are out. I think it could help them sell season ticket packages. The way that Aquaman said it will likely be a "week long" celebration indicates to me that they may do what I said and retire their numbers on separate nights, likely a Saturday/Sunday. Might as well milk it for all you can. If this season is exciting and goes well, then next season could be a real winner for Canucks season ticket holders. We could have potentially playoffs + 50th anniversary celebrations + sedins retirement + NHL draft in our city. Exciting times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 The tickets that I exchanged yesterday (Pittsburgh for Montreal) got sold the very same day just a few hours after my move. I got lucky again this morning. I was able to trade my UB4 defensive zone Vegas game (The game that will be in March) for UB4 defensive zone Montreal's game. 100% of my sales so far this season were to contacts (repeating buyers) and/or from Craiglist. I didn't get a single sale on NHL Ticket Exchange (I'm not using Stubhub though). I only have 11 games that are unsold for the rest of the season. Soon, I will need to put some tickets aside because otherwise I will not be able to attend a single game this season. Don't get me wrong, the market is not high but if the asking price is just slightly above the season ticket holder cost, tickets will sell. However the fees are too high for buyers on resale sites IMHO. In my opinion, the good thing about Craiglist is that it's all local buyers and once in a while you get a buyer that will ask you for a list of your tickets for sale and they will stay in touch with you year after year. I need to admit that there are some waste of time with idiots who will low ball you or ask if tickets are still available just to not pursue once you answered them yes.

Ticketmaster (NHL ticket exchange) is really screwed because it looks like they have been forced (by law, I think?) to move to an ALL IN pricing like stubhub used to have. I commented last year and the year before about how sneaky they were by hiding fees until the checkout page and how few people noticed. Looks like someone complained and now ticketmaster has all in pricing and it is hurting their sales. The prices are in CDN dollars + they include fees, which makes them look much higher than stubhub. For instance if I go to ticketexchange, I see lowest price pair for Boston Bruins is $77.32 but lowest price on stubhub is $48.00 (excluding fees). Bottom line I am not surprised sales have been low on tm+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were a buyer, I would like to see the price of everything before I even think of buying it. Also with StubHub, the US version (haven't seen the Canadian pricing site yet since its launch) sure it looks good and all but then you have to factor the exchange rate and all. I would think that most Canadian buyers don't have a US currency credit card so when you buy in US funds on your Canadian credit card it fluctuates for a few days so you don't really know what the conversion rate is until its posted on your bill. I would personally buy from NHL TicketExchange over StubHub for NHL tickets. Unless its like > $20 per ticket more then I would think about it.

I would personally buy from NHL TicketExchange over StubHub for NHL tickets. Unless its like > $20 per ticket more then I would think about it. Of course, I agree. But the numbers differ. Stubhub moved to all-in pricing years ago and saw a HUGE decline in revenue even though their prices remained the same. They spent millions of dollars in advertising trying to "teach" people about all in pricing but it didn't work. After a year of heavy losses they fired their CEO and the new CEO very hushh-hush reintroduced fees and pretended like all-in pricing never happened. Conclusion? Many people who buy tickets are ignorant or don't care to spend the time looking at the fine print or end total. I know people like this. They don't even look at their credit card statements, they just pay the bill. So NHL Ticketexchange is going to lose a lot of buyers with their all-in pricing.

DonaldBrashear Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 My kids are 1 and 3 years old and I just signed them up to season ticket holders with one full season ticket in each of their names. I figured by the time they are my age they will be 30 plus year season ticket holder and it's something that will follow them the rest of their life. If you have kids you might want to think about doing the same thing or even if you have nephews. Rogers Arena isn't getting any bigger there's only ever going to be about 19,000 seats maximum but the population of Vancouver is going to keep going up and once the Canucks get good again tickets will be almost impossible to find for a reasonable price. I wish my parents have done that when I was one years old Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
