    Yes and it was very creepy how they wanted all my childrens names and dates of birth.

    I guess Cromertie would have to miss camp if he had to fill it out.

    Actually, I am able to access them. For whatever reason if I go straight to my account page, I couldn't access the "manage my tickets" link. Going through the Ticket Exchange link allowed me to into it.

    I can manage my tickets, but the jets once again are experiencing difficulty with parking, so no one can manager or sell their parking passes right now. Better fix it soon as lots of people are taking game to Jets/Ravens game as it is right after work for a lot of people and they need to sell parking passes

    I find both the Jets Account Management and the Ticketmaster Account Management links to be amateurish in design to say the least. The Jets Account particularly so. It was not until just yesterday that they finally showed my 2nd ticket purchase. The website only offers two entries: Pay My 2010 Ticket Invoice or Pay My PSL Invoice By Credit Card. Well, my invoice was paid for months and they still only offered those options. How about "View My Account?" Is that so fucking difficult? Then when you got in there to your account, it didn't even give you an accurate assessment of what is going on. Even the tickets were like "Section G-456, Row R49GA" or some such nonsense.

    The webmaster or whoever the web design outfit is needs to go back to Adobe Dreamweaver Class 101, IMO. And yes, no place for Parking Passes on Ticketmaster. This is a serious, gargantuous mistake, IMO. Buyers on that website want to be able to park their fucking car before buying tickets, otherwise they will go to StubHub or ePay where they at least know they get the Parking Pass with the purchase. Huge blunder.

    I'm surprised Woody is down with this amateurish bullshit. He must not be a very hands on manager/owner and is certainly not a stickler for detail. If I owned the Jets I'd kick the Webmaster's ass good and proper. Then again, if I owned the Jets, a a lot of other things would be different also.

    If you try to sell it only lets you sell one game at a time kicks you out and start all over again. Annoying.

    BTW while I was putting my redskins preseason game I noticed a guy on stubhub had great hall club tickets on sale for the 2nd preseason game for $110 bucks each, that is a really good deal with all the food included, you could have a meal before and after game that is worth $110 alone.

    That would be a good thread. "If I owned the Jets".

    How would paying for the stadium be handled and player contracts.


    I don't understand why the two account pages aren't linked, it is amateur hour.

    Baltimore Ravens at New York Jets Tickets
    Mon, Sep 13, 2010 at 7:00 PM (EST) at New Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ
    Section:Lower Goal Line 143Row:25Parking pass includedPrice:$200.00 each

    Lots of nuts selling tickets or jets dumping tickets. Look at this LGL with parking to biggest game of the year. LGL with 10% down option and parking and psl fee is $208 a ticket. This guy after fees is selling his seats at $170 a ticket. Why oh Why sell under for $38 undr face for the bigest game of year. Plus these are good seats. Drives you nuts.

    One scalper told me he held back on buying many PSL seats only a handful as so many amtuers are selling seats with irrational pricing it is too dangerous for him.

    Yeah, fucking amateurs. Suckers probably actually like watching the Jets and only sell their seats when they can't go. Really makes life tough on guys like you. I feel for you.

    ^^^^

    Why would it drive you nuts?

    I only care that I'm in their and seated happily. Just worry about going to Jet games, stop worrying about resale value.

    They are assholes. When I can't make it to a game cause of a prior committment as a season ticket holder I like make a bit on big games and lose a bit on shitty games.

    When assholes start selling the few big games a year on purpose for a loss they are distroying their own psl value and everyone's psl value in whole section. Even people who go to all ten games for next 20 years get screwed as no one will pay a nickle for a PSL that tickets go for less on stubhub.
    If they want to sell for a loss or give it away fine, do it with friends, families and co-workers, don't go online and do it.

    I planned on going to lots of games this year, but Holloween, Thanksgiving and Newyears week I can't make it. If this shmuck is giving away ravens tickets for nothing I can't imagine how little I will get for the shitty time slot games I can't make.

    I gather people selling the PSL tickets aren't factoring in the actual PSL into the cost of the ticket. So in their minds they're getting more then the face value of the ticket.

    The PSL is already paid or being paid off, so one really has nothing to do with the other. For a Jet fan that bought tickets to watch and go to the games.

    If god forbid I can't make it to a game, just like in the past I'll just give them to my younger cousin. HOLY SHIT I'm not making back my money, what is a fan to do??

    It's called "the market." You of all people should know this. You can't mandate or dictate what buyers and sellers "should do" or "not do."

    Maybe this "asshole" has a wedding he has to go to and wants to make sure he sells the tickets, so he priced them to sell and sell quickly. That doesn't mean he is selling "on purpose for a loss" and trying to "destroy his own PSL value" and "everyone else's PSL value" in his entire section.

    Now, as far as "people who go to all ten games for next 20 years get screwed as no one will pay a nickle for a PSL that tickets go for less on stubhub," let's remember that we talked about this LONG BEFORE anyone was even offered the stinking, fucking PSLs. I said they were LOSERS, remember? Total LOSERS. The market will not bear the weight of selling these tickets at face value plus the prorated cost of the PSL plus the 15% StubHum commission. No how, no fucking way. It's the market. It won't allow it... buyers won't pay it.

    As far as selling to "friends, families and co-workers, but don't go online and do it," how TF else is he supposed to move the seats? Go next door to his neighbor's house who is a Giants fan and try to sell them? Of course not. He has to go online.

    As far as I can tell, this guy is not an asshole for trying to sell these tickets. But he is an asshole if he bought the PSL and then figured the market would bear him selling at break-even. No way, how how, not going to fucking happen. Not this year, not next year, probably NEVER.

    I said since Day One in this almost 500-page thread that the PSLs were LOSERS. They're not if you go to the games and enjoy them, but they certainly are if you have to sell them.

    My advice to you would be to stop concentrating on selling your PSL seats. It's going to be a very frustrating 30 years for you if you do. Just go to the games and use the tickets yourself. It's the only way out now. Use them and don't sell them, becasue the guy who sits next to you is going to be an "asshole" and sell his for less than his total investment EVERY SINGLE TIME. BECAUSE THAT'S ALL THE MARKET WILL ALLOW with these stinking PSLs! They're way overpriced... priced to perfection (SB Victory, etc.). Anything less and the bottom is going to fall out big time. Who knows, maybe this "asshole" got top dollar for those fucking things?

    It's all going to come home to roost. We're seeing the tip of the iceberg. Look out below come March, 2011. Anyone who wants a PSL will be in the driver's seat:

    1) Economic news today was again dismal. 131,000 jobs lost again and still unemployment at 9.6%. Businesses will continue failing. People who bought PSLs in business name will be wanting out.

    2) Put on a graph, job losses have peaked in the 9.5% range and don't appear to be slacking off on that number. It is stuck there at the moment with no sign of let-up in the near future. Individuals who bought PSLs on a lark are second-guessing their decisions, as well they should and should have prior to the ridiculous, no-money-down, free-parking, fucked up purchase.

    3) "Stimulous Package" didn't do squat. All that taxpayer $$$ out the window and the economy is worse than ever. Debt up the whazoo. People still losing jobs. Fed stuck at damn-near zero percent with nowhere to go to lower it and get things moving. Individuals not spending out of fear of job loss. Only a matter of time before PSL buyers panic and want out. By March they'll be beside themselves to unload.

    4) On top of all this, PSLs were priced at perfection. It was like buying a house in 2006 at height of market and financing the whole load. No place but down after that, as so many have painfully realized the hard way. Same thing with Woody's PSLs. Sanchez, LT, all the hype & talent we brought in... all the Ryan bullshit about SB team, blah, blah. Joe Namath even chiming in now. Go Woody... get the rest of those PSLs sold and we'll help you buddy, just as long as we get our Row One Coaches Clubs on the fucking cuff for the inlaws, know what I mean?

    5) Throw in some injuries... every team gets them. Major players go down, we lose a couple of close ones and behold... we finish the season at 9-7 again. This time we don't make the playoffs. This happens two or three years in a row and all of a sudden there are a lot of "assholes" trying to sell their PSL tickets.

    This has the potential of being a real nightmare, fellas. New Yorkers are not patient people. Instant gratification is what it's all about. Superbowl this year... oh yeah! Buy up those PSLs... well worth the money. And then what happens if there is no Superbowl? What happens if we don't even make the playoffs? Look out below. It's coming.

    If you think about it, the PSL price is a sunk cost that has little or no bearing on the cost of attending an individual game.

    Looking at the data from Stubhub, there are clearly people buying and selling seats with no idea what the market price of the tickets are. While there are certainly a few cases of people just dumping a game for a low price b/c they don't want the hassle of waiting for a good price, there is clearly a lot of stupid going on.

    Let see:
    1.) There are two pairs seats in 149 available, one is in Row 18 for $198 and the other is in row 17 for $300. Some moron will pay $300 for no apparent reason.

    2.) The lowest price in LLEZ for a game is $198. Every so often, someone will sell their seats for $120 thus ensuring they take a loss. Why didn't they price them at $170? Who knows?

    I usually think your posts are humorous...but these people aren't a-holes. They are people just trying to recover some of their costs since they aren't going to a game. If I sell any tickets I cannot go to, I usually sell them for face value, just trying to make sure I don't lose anything.

    They cannot worry about others and how their low prices effect the secondary ticket market. And why should they? If they decide to take a loss or not make as much a profit as you say they can, it is none of our business.

    I think of the money I get back as found money, since I paid for it months ago and is already gone. Shortsighted? Yup. But do I care how my ticket sale affects everyone else? Nope. I bought my tickets and I can do what I wish with them...and so can these low priced sellers.

    Look at it this way, selling low is a good idea on a flooded market...you are sure to at least get something. And you know that once the Jets start releasing all those unsold tickets to the secondary market, the market will be flooded and it will be difficult to move any seats at face or above.

    i like that people dont make profits on the jets season tickets.just sell for face or hopefully close. but to try to get a $100 over face is crazy.

    I was at 1 Jets Drive last night and saw the room where they put together the season ticket packages, even took a pic. It felt like getting a look into Santas workshop as a kid lol, however this was Woody's Psl workshop. Very nice facility by the way, I wonder why they don't practice there instead of Cortland.
