If it is anything like Tampa, we just needed ID to pick up the Red Zone tickets at 4pm. I had let my friends get in with my credit card (they did not check for ID). I actually reported the card lost beforehand and had a 2nd card with the same # as a precaution.

Any updates on the parking situation?

I still have 2 tickets for Tampa Will sell them for $550 ($275ea). Since these are CC entry, buyer will need to meet me at the stadium to get in. Send me a PM if you are interested. If interested, please contact me via PM.

I have 1 Red Zone ticket available for Tampa. Send me a PM if you are interested.

that is correct - thank you for the clarification. I am clearly not interested in making money off of these tickets - just looking to softening the blow to my bank account. "or best offer"... as in I would consider less than $275/ticket if necessary.

I purchased these 4 tix during the presale but got Red Zone during the public sale. Paid $1252 ($313ea). Will sell for $1100 ($275ea) or best offer. Since these are CC entry, buyer will need to meet me at the concert to get in. If interested, please contact me via PM.

In addition to the 4 tickets I have in section 133 row T, I also have 1 Red Zone ticket available for sale at cost for anyone interested.

Some stadiums have different levels of season tickets. At Gillette you can get Patriots and/or Revolution season tickets or you can get Premium Seating tickets, which gets you into pretty much any event there: http://www.gillettestadium.com/premium-seating

If this isn't a case of TM running a scam, how do you explain the huge number of high-price resale tickets being offered during 'exclusive' pre-sale periods then? If pre-sale tickets are not transferrable, where have those resale tickets come from? It is my understanding that these tickets usually come from season ticket holders.

I have a similar issue. I plan on calling my credit card company to have a 2nd card sent to me (telling them that the magnetic strip is bad or something like that). From what I've read in the forums, the ID checking isn't always enforced.

However, the pre-sale took place 5 to 6 days prior to the public sale. Couldn't cancel the pre-sale tickets without knowing better tickets would be available during the public sale.

This is the exact situation I am in. I couldn't get Red Zone during presale, so I got best available. During the public sale, I got the Red Zone tickets. Now I need to unload 4 tickets I purchased during the presale. I have called TM, emailed TM, emailed u2.com - so far no luck. I am not trying to scalp these tickets - I just want to be able to let other U2 fans have the opportunity to purchase these tickets at the price I paid for them. The TM person I spoke to suggested that I sell my tickets to someone (outside of the TM website) and have them meet me at the concert... easier said than done. Yeah, that's a safe thing to do. Meet a stranger at a corner with a thousand dollars in tickets! I hope you don't mind but I'm laughing at the absolute stupidity of that suggestion. If TM does not get back to you then I suggest bitching. That's whey they reply the quickest to me. It's true and now I'm laughing at myself. Is that okay? Perhaps after the second show sells they will change that. I say meet them on a corner in the darkest recesses possible, have it be a friend, get robbed and sue Ticketmaster!!! ( I am joking ) JOKE Ludicrous is my favorite word to use with TM. Who is it, though? Most of the people I speak with are very nice and helpful. Then one gets connected with a supervisor only to hear they are not available. OR I get the dreaded dial tone. I hope it changes after all the shows go on sale is what I was going to say. Excuse me. Trust me, I laughed myself. At this moment I am not too pissed off over being stuck with an extra $1252 worth of tickets because: 1) I should have paid closer attention to all of the "tickets are not transferrable" warnings. 2) I have 6 months to find a solution. 3) I don't give up that easily. 4) I got Red Zone tickets!

I tried to get RZ for Tampa during the presale but the best I could do was to get high priced seats. I tried again during the public sale, and to my amazement, I got 4 RZ tix! Makes me wonder why I subscribed to the fan club. Now I'm stuck with $1252 worth of tix because I cannot sell or exchange the original tix I purchased via the fan club (I called TM and was told that they couldn't help me).

I have 4 tickets in section 133 row T for Tampa that I am try to get rid of since I was able to get Red Zone tickets during the public sale. I have sent an email to TM to see if they would cancel the order but I haven't heard back from them yet. If I'm stuck with these ticket I would be willing to sell them at face value. TM basically told me that my only option is to have someone buy the tickets from me and then to have them meet me at the stadium.
