FF ticket strategy

[RedAR]

I know there is the ticket exchange, but wanted to post this on the front page.

There seem to be a bunch of people looking for 1 or 2 tickets.  It might be easier if we worked together, and formed groups of 4.  Many people seem to be selling in lots of 4.

I may have a lead on 4 tickets, thanks to John Whelan.  Please email me if you want in.

Actually I was trying to get a block of 4 tickets looking at the USCHO message board ticket exchange and they were selling faster than I could respond.  I was successful in obtaining opportunities to buy to pairs of tickets that I've committed to and received a 3rd e-mail from another seller looking to sell a pair.  I've only been able to track down one of my friends who wants to go, so I may end up having a pair to sell.  

 E-mail me @ stephen.marciniec@fluor.com if you're looking to buy a pair.  I'll send you the lead on the 3rd pair and charge face value plus shipping if I wind up having to sell the 2nd pair.

I just got in touch with a couple more buddies who will take the 2nd pair so I won't have any to sell.  I got all my successful leads from the USCHO board.  See you all in Buffalo :-)   LGR! B-]

As of know, I have 4 people who are in with me.  If a ticket becomes available, I'll post here.

The bidding seems to have died down at bit on eBay.  There are still lots of tickets available, including lower level seating, some for reasonable prices (I saw 4 seats in 113 for $660 currently, although that auction ends later today).  There is also at least one auction for seats just for the Cornell-UNH game.

I live in Boston (BC Alum) and have 2 tickets for the Frozen Four in Buffalo to sell.  Not looking to make any $, just want to get what I paid (face value + delivery charge when I got them in the lottery last year).  I also have a hotel room at the Hyatt downtown booked which I could put in your name when I cancel.  The only hitch, is my location.  Give me an email if you want them...

Hi all-

I have extras and want to keep 'em in the family.

1 pair sec 317, row 4, all 3 games. Face value plus what I paid for my shipping charge.

Also a single seat in 319, row 5.  Face value.

Email me if interested...I'm in Boston in terms of getting the tickets to you.  Otherwise I can ship.  

Thanks,

It has been mentioned on another thread and I'm going to repeat it here should you have missed it.
A lot of people posting about various tickets being sold ARE NOT SELLING TICKETS THEMSELVES!!!!!!! You definitely need to be more proactive in terms of contacting the sellers because otherwise, you'll be watching the games on ESPN and not in Buffalo. Tickets are being exchanged quickly as fans of the four teams are scrambling to settle their plans. Don't expect someone to respond to your post because by the time they see it, they've probably already gotten a few emails for their tickets and have sold them. The link Fred posted is for an auction on ebay. He can't sell you those tickets. You have to go and bid on them yourself.
Various message boards and sites have been mentioned in the ticket threads and I'll relist them for you here:
uscho message board (there's one dedicated to tickets)
elf ticket exchange (look up and to the left)
hockey-L (though I'm not as familiar with this)
ebay (but try to not pay more than they're worth)

To the rest of the you reading this, sorry, but it's really annoying to see the same "very interested please respond" post day after day after day...
