I think The next time you make a listing you should notice 13% I did a quick lookup and people are not happy about it because they really didn't say anything about this. You only notice it if you look at the break down of your payout. Yeah I looked on their website, and stubhub says that they tell you the fees when you list your tickets. At the beginning of the season I listed ALL my tickets, and then deactivated the ones I want to keep or not sell, but if I decide to sell them I just activate them. Because of this I guess I am locked in to the 10% commission. But that being said, I will have to take a long hard look at what point stubhub becomes too excessive. There really isn't any competition to stubhub though which is sad. They know they can get away with charging insane fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just Assumed it's at 10% and never bothered to check. I accidentally found out about the 13 % when I was reading the email on one of my sales a few weeks ago. I still feel it's pretty sneaky on their part that they didn't make an announcement about this in an email or something so people can have a heads up. I still have a hell of a time selling on ticket exchange. I would gladly use it but it's useless to me if I cannot sell on there.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently from what I am reading, it isn't even 13%... they are saying it can "range" from like 9% to 17%. I smell a lawsuit coming for sure. But stubhub will say that when you list your tickets, they tell you the fee they charge, and that IS true. The problem is, if you bulk list you dont always pay attention to that.

bt116 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 I still can't believe the Detroit game is close to a sell out. Wonder if the canucks are holding some tickets on ticketmaster.

Sick of these later games on weekend especially sundays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCNeil Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Okay so really, what's going on with the wings game? Tickets starting at $66US on the stub, list price??? 4th or 5th biggest game this year?? I am scared to sell any tickets, if something gets announced.

I think it's just a combination of EP40 returning to the line up + being an afternoon game so parents bringing the kids to the game. But still, the demand is crazy, and the price just keeps surging--It certainly feels unusual. I was lucky and exchanged extra tickets for this game months ago, Sold some of them already at a good price. Was browsing Craigslist and you know it's a high demand game when scalpers are posting ads wanting to buy up extra tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got an email from the Flames....They are going to make an announcement tomorrow about their March game vs the Wild. Everyone thinks its Iginla retirement night. I have spent a lot this morning.

I mean, this club (Canucks) is good at keeping secrets. Last year they kept the Sedins retirement under wrap for 3 months even though lots of people knew about it, stubhub tickets for the final games didn't budge. This is just a classic issue of 41 home games, and only 1 of them is a 1pm start. Lots of people with small kids and stuff, and a Sunday 1pm start is the only time that works for them. Also, it was a "regular" classification game, which means a lot of people could afford it when tickets were first released. I think, if anything, this means we could see more 1pm Sunday games next year. This is exactly the type of target audience the Canucks want. If I were Aquaman, I would put on an absolute SHOW on Sunday. Face painting, cheap food, prizes, the whole works. Those 19,000 people coming on Sunday are your future hardcore fans. Will hardly be a suit in the audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
