Ok so the Phillies just won a second NL East Pennant in a row. The last time we said that was what the 70's?? Now you want to go see the team that is a SERIOUS threat to go to the World Series, but to do that you need, TICKETS!!!! Well before you CRUSH the scalper on this, lets get a few things straight. First off, so long as you were within earshot of the radio or tv you knew that you could of registered for a chance to buy tickets at face value before anyone else. They advertised this during the TV and Radio broadcasts AND sent out emails to the fans letting them know this. If you signed up and won congrats, if you signed up and did not win, sorry about that, just keep in mind the demand FAR outweighs the supply here. IF you did not sign up at all and want to be one of the people screaming real fans should get in, get over it. IF you want to be a real fan you should of bucked up the cash and bought a season ticket package or other package that would of got you into these games. So now that, that is all out of the way, lets look at the various ways you can obtain tickets for the Fightins in the secondary ticket market place.
1. Craigslist.org
Craigslist is a good site to find tickets from season ticket holders or even ticket brokers looking to sell their tickets. The think to keep in mind is that you are OPEN game for a scam on this site, so tread lightly and make sure you check everything out before purchasing off of an individual.
2. Ebay
Same as craigslist in regards to who is selling but the sellers actually have a feedback score that can help out in regards to your decision process. ONLY deal with people with HIGH feedback and RECENT feedback. Try to deal with, "Powersellers." NEVER deal with someone with recent negative feedback or NO feedback. Not for a commodity that can expire and who can beat you on money.
3. Ticketbroker
Now before you get all heated up on this, keep one thing in mind, ticketbrokers will have access to more inventory then the above and you can buy tickets in a SAFE and SECURE fashion. So what do you look for in regards to a ticketbroker. Well for one, you want to find one with a good reputation, one who Guarantees not only the authenticity of the ticket, but the ticket you purchased is the one that will be shipped to you. And the most important one who deals ONLY is secure transactions. By that I mean they only accept credit cards, either via the phone or in their office.
Here is a VERY VALUABLE piece of information that I am going to pass along to you. EVERY BROKER SELLS THE SAME TICKETS GIVE OR TAKE SOME SEATS HERE OR THERE.
With that said, you want to deal with the CHEAPEST obviously or one of the lowest pricest companies that you are 100 GUARANTEE that they will beat any ticketbrokers checkout price on any ticket.
Hopefully this hub will help you in your ticket decision.
