      So there are seats two rows in front of me that are $50 cheaper  than the tix I got during the presale. cheeky

      When I logged in to TM today just to see what the general sale looked like, it seems like everything is cheaper. And better seats opened up. 
      There was also a notice saying prices may fluctuate based on demand. 
      Thats so ridiculous!

      I should have just waited until today to get mine. Presale was worse seats AND more expensive.

        I tried that and every seat came up taken.  Didn'tlike this pre sale experience at all!

            Actually for me the presale was cheaper (got in right as they went on sale)

            I agree the price fluctuation is not cool.

              I had the opposite experience...I tried all week, never got a ticket....another fan ALWAYS got the ticket....and I thought there would be some better options, more options  on the general public sale but there weren't.....all jacked up prices way in the back....after about an hour all seats were platinum at $1000 or more. It's was a deeply discouraging experience.....doubt I will ever try to see Paul again. This is only for wealthy people now.....

              And there are things Paul can do to prevent the mass reselling and the platinum BS. This whole thing reeked of greed.

                  I'm with ya. He could do something about this if he really wanted to.

                    I was always going for Hot Sound Package (2013, 2014, 2017) or Gold VIP (2019) and got great center section 3rd/4th row seat for HSP. No insane fees back then - cost was a flat $1500. ($1600 in 2017)  Never had any problems in those presales. Now it is a nightmare and I'm glad I don't ever plan to try to get tickets again.
