...so, I've been thinking about the band decided to sell all the third leg tickets right away this past spring. My understanding was that it was supposed to help curb the problem of scalping - with more months between the sales and the concerts, the scalper prices would do down. I thought that was a pretty good idea at the time, but having just bought 4 GA tickets from a broker, now I'm not so sure. I had to buy some GAs from a broker for the first leg after me and my six friend (most with pre-sale codes) ALL got shut out. The tickets were expensive, but they were legit and arrived before other people got theirs from TM. I decided to use the same broker again if I had to. I didn't get any GAs in the third leg sales, so I've been watching the prices daily since then. The prices have not changed one single bit. I already bought the tickets b/c honestly now that U2 is back in Europe, I got really scared that Americans would start buying for the third leg again and prices would go UP. Another thing I thought of that kinda goes against the decision to sell the third leg tickets early is that the tickets for the fall shows I was considering seeing went on sale before the dates of the first leg shows I had tickets to. So, I didn't really try that hard to buy the fall leg shows b/c I was still waiting to see how much I'd enjoy the first leg shows. Well, I REALLY enjoyed them, but then all the tickets were gone so I had to choice but to go back to the broker.
So, what do you guys think? Good idea? Bad idea?
