You should definitely have an easier time selling seats in the supporters section. I figure I'll just upgrade my seats or get extra seats to a game I can actually attend.
The "NET" is what make after Stubhub fees if I give each ticket it's average value of $21 per match. The "Net after reimbursement" is me chasing down the club for the 5% back they promise us for not being able to sell on Ticketmaster anymore and paying a 15% fee. Good luck to me getting that back, but if I track it like this I'll have a strong argument.
Yes, I like SS sales, because I can just lower my price to match the lowest available when I feel it's time to ditch, since it's all GA and buyer's aren't making choices based on location. Also, I don't think you can buy SS tickets directly from the club on a match by match basis. Is that correct?
Last season on ticketmaster I was able to select GA section, never bought there though.
We should consider ourselves lucky to have been getting scarves since day one. These poor people have had to wait until this year.
For the last two seasons I’ve been able to when I’ve run out of trade-in tickets. I just emailed my rep and she got me a ticket and charged my credit card
It’s 95+degrees & humid in the summer in Orlando.... they haven’t needed them.
Plus, they got a stadium.
Interesting becausee they got scarves in their inaugural year like we did: http://nycfcforums.com/index.php?th...season-ticket-packages.2364/page-5#post-54211
I guess they dropped it since.
I sometimes wonder if the club would be better off dropping the extra gift, since it rarely pleases anyone. Just the STH cards, and the scarves, and be done with it. Or, just give us all the nice schedule magnets.

Because you're a season ticket holder, but am I competing with the club/ticketmaster or just other sellers on Stubhub for the non-STH market?
Based on my experience last year, you won't get $35 for more than a game or two. Seriously, start high and go low has not worked for me in the past. Starting low and selling quickly has, for me, been the best strategy, especially with GA tickets. You will literally never sell a single ticket if you're not the low price in a GA section so if you don't start low the market inevitably gets away from you when people panic and lower prices. Just my experience, which seems to frequently be different than other people.
I think for most of the top tier games you will be better off selling them back to the club for the Tier 1 price.
Between NYCFC, US Soccer and Third Rail, I've been getting 8 scarves a year for the past 4 years. I don't need any more scarves. Please stop giving me scarves!
How could you say such a thing?
But yes, I've been heavily reducing my scarf purchasing from like 25 a year to less than 5.
I guess I’ll find out and I’ll share my results with ya’ll. I hope for my sake your hypothesis is incorrect.
I’m one of the first in line of the founding members to choose seats in the new stadium. Try to control your laughter, but I still believe.
My names on the founders scarf so I share the laughter.
I wonder how many of the first 3K are still ticket holders?
I always get the feeling that somehow we won't really get the shot.
