Brian NJ Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 Finances are difficult and I think I need to sell rr and boulder tix. Bought as package last Sept. I think I can transfer to another person... Anyone interested? I'd like to get cost for them. I'll have to eat my non-refundable flight... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP Greg from Chestertown Posted July 11, 2019 Forum MVP Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 I can relate, Brian. I caught a ticket to the Atlantic City show, reserved a blue light cheap hotel room in Ocean City, announced my lack of participation in helping out at the farm the day of, and the day after the show. (Gotta rest up then recuperate after dancing my face off) I was pretty excited that I could afford it in spite of the squeeze of paying for my daughter’s wedding. THEN, I called my daughter and asked her what the final payment was looking like. The response suddenly put me in ‘Oh, shit’ mode. So, the ticket is paid for and on it’s way. I figured I would miracle somebody with it, some way, some how. The only thing left is to get out of the hotel reservation, which was already paid for in full. So, I called the hotel last night. The guy on duty didn’t have the authority to do refunds. He tells me to call back in the morning and talk to the manager. I called this morning and got a nice gal that was knowledgeable but still not the person in charge. She let me know that I could get a refund but the cancellation was still going to cost about sixty five bucks. We had a good conversation. I explained how this was killing me because I was going to catch some Grateful Dead music and how it was what I live for. She responds with, ‘my first concert was Grateful Dead, Spectrum 1994, changed my life.’ After a few more minutes of talking, I am getting a full refund and she’s getting my ticket. It will be her first Dark Star show. That made my day. I was so happy how everything worked out. I hope you have the same kind of good fortune with your situation, Brian.

Forum MVP Greg from Chestertown Posted July 11, 2019 Forum MVP Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 Exactly. I don’t want to steal anyone’s thunder. CNJBrian needs to sell his RedRocks ticket. Back to the task at hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stdilbert Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 I have been in some sticky situations where I needed to sell a ticket that I couldn't use for a show. I use https://cashortrade.org/ as a very successful means of passing on a ticket to a deserving person and getting my money back on it as well.

Forum MVP Rude Posted July 19, 2019 Forum MVP Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Sorry bro. Bought mine early on this year. I think the boulder shows with only being able to buy all 3 caused many to buy early to not get shut out of boulder theater. Last year I waited knowing that redrocks would be a last second sell out if that. Good luck. did you post on CashorTrade yet? Last year I picked up a 4 pack for $40 each with no fees.
