Honestly unless you luck out and get some tomorrow at face value.. the 60 bucks each on stub hub is the best youre gonna find.
 
In your case, I think agreeing to kiss Greg Oden's ass at center court at halftime would be worth the tickets. I know I'd chip in to help.

Stubhub s**ks...it's relatively easy...log in/register/ find tix/pay ...etc...but what you don't see in the listing price is that StubHub will add a bunch of additional fees to that price. Your best bet is Craig's List.
 
Stubhub is reliable. I got burned (by BLAZER fans) on craigslist last time, I agreed to meet someone to buy tickets....price agreed on.....I waited downtown for the dude, he never showed, I kept on calling him...nada. what a fucking flake.

Stubhub guarantees your tickets are legit..they have protection. The fees aren't so bad.

I used stub hub a few times this year.. its guaranteed.. but yeah they get you with a 10% commision for them, and like 15 bucks fedex 2 day is the only option.. or if its day of game they have it at will call but its called a late charge or something.

Yeah that can happen, when I go craigslist I make sure that its someone who can email the tickets.. thats the option I have used in about 5 games I bought from there.
 
so if the tickets I'd like to "make available" are only at will call, my only option is craigslisting and hoping someone sends a check after the game?

Yeah, stubhub definitely rakes you over with their fees and stuff, but I guess they gotta make money somehow for providing the service and they are guaranteed. I've never had problems with them over getting my tickets in time.

How do they know you'll pay if they email you the tickets?

I probably sold 20 games this year on CraigsList - I email the buyer a PayPal invoice - they don't even need an account and can pay securely by credit card; then I email them the tix through the season ticket holder section of the Blazers' website.

So they have to trust me, but it hasn't been a problem all year - sometimes that surprises me but I guess when we chat on the phone they can tell I'm a season ticket holder and a fan, not some broker.

There's no extra cost to them; PayPal charges me about 3% (it's a sliding scale).

Sometimes the Blazer's website screws up the transfer, but I have the number of season ticket services inside the concourse and I can call even at gametime and the tickets will be left at will call under the buyer's name.

It's easy and the buyer can have his tickets in hand in five minutes. (I live an hour from Portland so I can't meet them.)

No, I went to that game.

I live in Hood River too - I usually ask buyers where they are are, so if you had answered my ad we could have met at Double Mountain Brewpub and saved me the 3% paypal fee!

whoah awesome a fellow Hood Rat.. Awesome! I'm getting season tickets next year too. hell of a long drive for us lol. How have you been watching games on TV this season? I are you having to beg for links to watch games online too?
 
I used StubHub this past fall for Oregon State tickets at Husky Stadium and got a pretty decent deal even with their convenience and shipping fees. I did like the certainty of getting tickets instead of trusting that someone would meet me at the stadium.
 
I have bought and sold tickets on blazers.com, and have had excellent results. I would start there first. I put my seats up for $400, but I don't expect them to sell...
 
Wow . . . I had no idea the complications involved in selling tickets. I have 4 Seinfeld tickets I and was going to try and sell tem on craiglist. Aftter hearing all this, I'll be happy to sell them for face value (100/ticket) if it makes it an easy transaction. Anyone interested?
 
It's not that compicated to sell tix now - in fact, it's amazing all we can do over the internet. Used to be you would have to go stand outside the venue holding the tickets in the air at the time of the event. Heck, if I could do that, I'd just go inside the event myself.

Now, I have been able to sell tickets to Blazers games on my iPhone while sitting in my sick father's hospital room on the East coast, on the day of the game.

Technology is amazing.

Hey I'm just killing time - how long 'til game time anyway??

So im curious about this stuff too since i have tix and all i've read price wise is $60 for 300 level tix? you guys all agree?
 
I buy and sell on stub hub. I have no problems with any of the transactions. They charge the customer 10 percent of the asking price. That's a fair deal since you know the tickets are legit and you get them in plenty of time.
