Thanks for the link. Can't believe some of the asking prices though... Someone is asking $330/each for lower level tix against Syracuse? They're still $184/each on 3rd party reseller sites... That's ridiculous.

Lol. Nothing says team spirit like charging $200-over-cost to your Tiger brethren!

If only there was a system where everyone had an opportunity

to buy their own season tickets. I bet that would cut down on the number of posts throughout the season complaining about people selling tickets higher than face value.

I smell sarcasm, go figure. You and I know it's impossible to buy season tickets in the lower section without giving a child to iptay or donating for 15 years but good point, kinda.

So you think people selling tickets for higher than face
Aug 25, 2016, 12:06 PM

are not only trying to get back what they paid for tickets to the game, but also trying to get back a percentage of their IPTAY donation allocated to the individual game as well? And is that wrong?

Listen man, no sense in arguing. You're missing the point. If the tickets are going for $184 on 3rd party sites, they shouldn't be $325 when its Clemson season ticket holder directly to Clemson fan, period. There's no middle man, ticketmaster fee, etc., and it's still $200 over cost? There's a show about this, it's on late at night most nights... It's called American Greed. If you're buying season tickets to "make money", you're already in a losing game to begin with. And of all the games, Syracuse isn't worth $1320 for 4 tickets. I don't care what section it's in. Sorry.

How many home games are there this year? 7?
So if someone donates $10,000 to Iptay to buy season tickets, their cost just on the donation is ~$1,428/game. Divide that by 4 tickets and the cost per seat is ~$350/game. And that's before they actually buy the tickets. So at $325/ticket you're getting a nice discount. That's not buying tickets to make money, they'll be taking a loss on their money.
Plus the market will dictate the price anyway.

you said and I quote "I know it's impossible to buy season tickets in the lower section without giving a child to iptay or donating for 15 years"
So those folks that gave a lot of money for the opportunity to buy season tickets in the lower level shouldn't be able to recoup some of that upfront cost if they can??
You must be doing that bernie maff.

Please, please, please let us see more than 10 at a time

Searching through ads 10 at a time takes forever, especially if you're looking for a particular feature (Section, parking lot, etc). Before today I could view 500 or 1000 ads at a time, now I have to slog through them in groups of 10. Please bring back the ability to see at least 50 at a time. Or provide some sort of search capability.
