--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just this past sunday night talked to a guy who offered to sell me a pair of playoff tickets. We settled on a price monday afternoon and was guaranteed he would hold them for me and if anyone else asked they were already sold. Well tonight I was browsing on ticket exchange and low and behold guess what I saw? Sure enough the tickets for sale. I immediately called the guy and asked him why they were on there when he told me they were mine. Was told he actually had put the tickets on their a couple of days ago before I made the deal with him. And that as soon as he recieves tickets they are mine.
Question is if someone puts their tickets up for sale on ticket exchange can they still sell their original tikcets in person when they get them from the ticket office? And will they be good? Thanks for the help.

as I said on the ticket exchange, yes, this is possible. No, the original tickets will not scan if they are purchased on ticket exchange.

They can, but they won't be valid tickets. Once you sell them on ticket exchange then your tickets are voided.

So if he truly intends to sell them to me when he gets them, he needs to take them off of ticket exchange? Can that be done? Otherwise if I buy the tickets from him say on thursday then they sell on ticket exchange this weekend I am pretty much screwed.

The guy could conceivably lose his season ticket rights if he fricks you like that.

I made a mistake one time last year where I sold the actual stubs after having sold the "guts" of the tickets on ticketexchange.

my rep called me the next day very upset and told me that was my 1 mulligan and that if it happened again they would consider taking action on my account.

so my point is that you CAN get fricked but it's not likely a season ticket holder would intentionally screw you like that and risk the cash cow that are Saints season tickets.

I was there at the game lester and I was calling it like I saw it along with everbody else that was there. If they would have played well I would have praised them. Do you buy tickets to watch LSU play? DO you ever say anything negative about Miles, Crowton, or how bad the offense performed? I'm sure you have so you don't deserve to go either and should give up your tickets.
