A gentleman is asking a very reasonable $495.00 per ticket (2 total) for Section 410 Row 38.


and not to be outdone... another Gentleman is asking a smooth $400.00 total for his 2 tickets in Section 634.



What. Tha. Frick.



ETA: Parking passes avg. asking $120.00

If anyone pays that much for this game they clearly have money to light on fire.

It's driving me nuts. Tigers taking advantage of Tigers. I understand a mark up for the effort, but good god.

scalping has more to do with where it's taking place relative to the venue. Online shite's fair game.

Ive always disliked the "Face + TAF fees"


If i pay TAF fees I should have the rights to the game every year. The face value is the ONE TIME price to go to the game. IMHO

Yep. It's ok to make about 20-25 per ticket, but anything more is just being greedy.

ALSO, DON"T SELL TO TAMU FANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, I've people do this when selling tickets at work. Even saw someone try to do face value + TAF Fees for the UAB game.

I got 2 in the lower bowl for 225. That, imo, was a very fair price.

Depends on where you are in the stadium. But the smallest fee (outside of the ones in the upper deck that don't have a fee attached) I belive is $250 in "donations" to TAF per ticket per year. I've seen people divide this number by 7, depending on the amount of home games, and adding it to the face value price for UAB and other less desirable games. Pretty ridiculous if you ask me.

So if you buy an item online, pay for shipping, and resell it, you don't consider the shipping cost as part of your TOTAL cost?
