Hi all, looking for 4 tickets to the cincy game this Saturday. 2011 Alum taking his kids to their first game.
I totally get it from both ends and it's kind of weird for me to just show up right when things get popular and ask for tickets.
Personally I've been going to games since I was five and I was in the marching band during the Hawkins era so I understand bad football.
I was just seeing if anyone wanted to sell their tickets here to get a little bit more profit by taking out the middleman and I get a little bit of a discount. Win-win.
If there's no one on this forum that wants to sell their ticket that's totally fine. I was just putting my feelers out there and seeing if it was possible.
As for why I haven't been to a game in a while I moved out of state since college.
Had you started with: "this one time, at band camp" I may have believed you.I totally get it from both ends and it's kind of weird for me to just show up right when things get popular and ask for tickets.

Sorry, just that it is about 80% wanting to buy tickets below cost. There are very few sellers and in my experience trying to sell tickets here the last few years, doesn't seem anyone really wants to pay. I put tickets up for half of market value and crickets. Online reseller at full market price, usually sells in a couple of days. I would prefer to sell here to avoid the reseller tax.I totally get it from both ends and it's kind of weird for me to just show up right when things get popular and ask for tickets.

Yeah it's also hard to trust both parties to transfer their part. Like will I PayPal venmo you and will you actually send the tickets. I feel these fan forums are a little bit safer but still gotta be cautious because you never know if some rando makes up some bogus story about the marching comes up randomly. /SSorry, just that it is about 80% wanting to buy tickets below cost.

For this game I sold them last week on SG. Parents weekend always commands a premium, didn't bother to even post them here. If you go to the ticket forum and don't see any for sale your best bet is to check out SG. Prices keep falling, you should be able to score a good deal.
Nice picture BTW. That would be the way to lead off. Mostly the people that post tickets are legit season tickets holders or long time members. Check how long they have been a member. Before Venmo and e-tickets I actually trusted @Uncle Ken to mail me a check and he had to trust I would send the tickets. If nobody has any here for sale, I just checked and the secondary market has sec 206 for $126 w/fees which is lower than the ticket office sold those for, but probably covers what a season ticket holder paid.Yeah it's also hard to trust both parties to transfer their part.

Do I still owe you money?Nice picture BTW. That would be the way to lead off. Mostly the people that post tickets are legit season tickets holders or long time members.

A crazy idea would be for AllBuffs to act as a middle man for ticket sales, but then again I trust a stranger more than I trust the Junta here, they would just steal the money for hookers and blow.
