August 12th-September 12th, 2009

Tickets for sale: 46

Wanting to Buy: 0

Hockey Tickets for sale: 25

We recently posted some quarter final tickets on Craigslist for $200 and also asked whether a secondary market really even existed given that seat assignments and hard copy tickets are not available. First, here’s how well our ad fared:

Genuine Inquiries: 2

Here are the comments:

“I bought 6 months ago… (well I paid a small amount down) when the seller gets the tickets I will pay the rest. I got a great deal (if they actually exist) ;-) I do have a signed agreement.”

“YOU ARE SO RIGHT WAIT TILL ALL THE SEATS COME OUT IN DEC THEN YOU CAN REALLY KNOW THE PRICES OF SEATS”

“I have sold some tickets for decent prices right now – have to wait for the right buyer. Risk in waiting is that the market will become flooded – i do not think it will be too much of an issue though.”
