Oh, I would have! I was about 10 back to getting tickets. I am trying for GA though - like the rest of us
I see some normal people on craigslist selling tickets... sure plenty of scams and do your due diligence, but one girl is offering to pick tickets up at will call with you for Friday, so that's impossible to fake. She may not show up, but you don't pay before you get there.
Just saying, I know people are out there to screw you, but I sold 2 tickets this way so there are more like me and you... you can almost read the ads and see the difference between human being fan and scammer. Not always.
Just saying. If you meet the person at their midtown office in a suit, most likely not selling you fake tickets. They may be trying to make a buck or can't go.
I think it's more likely to get real tickets from craiglists than from people around MSG. Now that's not the first option. Just saying. There are still good people and real tickets out there.
Some old people (like 40 and above) don't know what the hell resale is or stub hub... or they don't trust it. So they sell it for cash like old days.

Sorry, I thought you turned them down in lieu of better seats.

If I remember correctly, 360 was broken into multiple groups (3?) with the first much more senior than 'one month old' which I believe was the Experience group this go 'round. Could be remembering incorrectly, but I believe that's how it shook out.

Thanks for your updates from the spot nuzzer and mirrorballman. Helping me decide on what to do tomorrow! Hope you both get tickets.

...currently losing my patience and looking for stubhub ripoffs... only if I were assured legit 280$ tix would drop today at 5pm onwards and I'd get a pair... 
Or you could get the 6000 dollar tix I've seen on sale on ticketmaster... my guess is people meant to write 600 and typo, or or they just hope you accidentally buy them (like I almost did looking around for fun) and can't return them.

I've bought and sold via craigslist before and yes, there are legit tickets there. However, for a super high demand show like this, you have to be more vigilant than usual as the scammers are swarming to take advantage of the desperation.
For this tour, the early group were people who were members as of before the album was dropped. That was a good way to do seniority as no one had any idea an album and tour were imminent at that point.

Did anyone with an early fanclub presale NOT get the tix they wanted? I mean, if people got the tix they wanted, then the tiers worked right?

So, 5 hours to go and no tix. This is more thrilling than being James Bond.
Obviously someone didn't, but I got 2 codes and got 2 tickets, so I was happy. Then I got tickets to the other shows I wanted.
I think what people are saying is the free gift should be a GA tickets in our email box out of nowhere. Agreed.

Ouch
I'd prefer to say been around long enough to have gotten the tickets we wanted during the presales

Okay, obvious nothing's gonna drop online and resales are also not going down in price.
I'll go to MSG now and see if quequeing makes sense to get any sort of pair ticket...
