Looking online, the fees these companies charge is plain robbery. Is there a "ticket exchange" type of site available?

The MLB site isn't quite as bad, but for a family of 5 to hit a few games is kinda pricey.

TIA

You dont seem to care much about the type of seats you get so just show up and buy bleachers from Juan outside that ridiculous band box the Astros call a "ballpark".

Minute Maid park factors actually skew pitching friendly, mate

Better than that warehouse the Brewers call a ballpark

Not really although I do wish it was downtown and that they opened the fricking roof more. Makes zero sense to have it closed 90% of the time

There are $9 tickets available on astros.com right now.

Price shouldn’t be an issue.

Gametime app. Only problem is that the prices should drop as gametime gets closer but people will be grabbing them so you gotta be quick.

Baseball may not be a big of a deal since there are 81 games in a home season.

Regular season baseball tickets are pretty easy to get.

As far as the best online secondary market for tickets in general you should try TickPick. Technically there are no service charges for the buyer and the base prices of the tickets are comparable to what you find on Stub Hub and other sites.

I find the fees on the regular team site to be just as bad. I think on Stubhub its just a percentage of the ticket price so if you get a ticket for $20 or less the fee isnt bad.

Great seats above home plate in 318-20 for $21 each on seatgeek for the lowly Detroit Tigers. Should be guaranteed Astros win.

tickpick

best out there

ZERO charges for the buyer.

If you pay a surcharge, and even a prime game charge, you are retarded. If these retarded companies want to be official seller of a league, and are desperate to get their $$$ back, they can go suck a dick.

I see seats starting at $6 for chisox series on tickpick

I use TickPick too.

I've used them for baseball tickets, music concerts, Broadway type shows, etc. with no complaints.

Was there for last Friday's game and it was packed to the brim. Surprising you can find $9 tickets.
