Eagles-Atlantic City, NJ;Sept. 1-Sept. 2, 2012

Thanks Soda! Yea, I'm not sure whether these other codes even exist... according to ticketmaster there is a presale that starts today and another revel presale that begins tomorrow before tickets go on sale to the public on Friday... Was just hoping to get good seats before they get sold out!

I couldn't figure that out either. I was having a hard time figuring out the entire ticket site. It said to pick out seats, then enter the code, then it accepts the code, then it didn't give the seats. It was like a vicious cycle. I didn't like the seats I was getting for $275, I would just rather go to the upper level, but they wouldn't sell me the upper level??? Then if you go to Sub hub, all the seats are up for sale over there. I was just pissed off

ILAA will also be selling tix but no info yet on pricing. If top TM price is $375 you can image what ILAA will charge.

Actually, ILAA is the same price as usual. It's the venue jacking up prices here, not the band - at least not directly. It's just that this venue has to meet the Eagles upfront fee just like bigger arenas and since they have fewer tickets to sell to make back the money, they raise the price for them considerably. Of course, what the casino makes off of the people who come collaterally - the hotel rooms many of the audience members will get, the food they'll eat, the gambling they'll do - should make the Eagles very profitable for the casino regardless. Therefore, I still think the casino went overboard with these prices!

If you enter the passcode before you click "Use the map" you will get a larger seat selection to work with then if you reverse the process and simply click on use the map.

Resellers are listing Row DD Center Orchestra for $4900. I better be careful. VA will poison my dinner and sell my seat for $5,000.

Resellers don't always get the prices they are asking! They usually go down when it gets close to the show. They really need to set a limit on what resellers can sell tickets for. They are scalpers, & I thought that was illegal. Stubhub is full of them!

Ok my understanding and I think I read it somewhere from an interview with Don Henley was that they give the best seats to ILAA to sell to people who really want it ..."the true fans" as I believe it was put. That way , the band makes the money ,not the scalpers as was stated in the interview . So, I guess you are kinda paying the band , which I dont mind instead of the scalpers.lol

The whole process just stinks.
A small venue has nothing to do with it. LAst time I saw them at the Borgata , it was a smaller venue and the whole place was 500.oo a ticket.

I'm not sure what ILAA is, but I think that is now what is called VIP Nation, where the front row VIP package is $995. & then other VIP packages are available for $695 & $495.
The people on Stubhub are selling these (or trying to sell the front row for $4900.) so YES, they are resellers & yes, they are scalping tickets. It's not paying the band. I guess $995 is enough pay for the band. They are getting them from VIP & then reselling at a higher price. So they are trying to make almost $4000 profit on each ticket. But I do think Irving owns StubHub as well, so he doesn't really care. Stubhub gets a percentage of the sale. It's such a racket.

VIP Nation tickets are non-transferrable. You have to sign in to buy them and the same person has to show ID the night of the show. In addition, you don't get a seat assigned until the night of the show. So if resellers are showing VIP/ILAA tickets in the first rows near the center, something has gone wrong with the process.

Yes, VIP Nation and ILAA are the same, they've changed the name to VIP Nation, yet the webaddress still has ILAA in it. So it's confusing.

I would never do something like that to you!! I'd need time to sell the ticket, so it's breakfast you need to worry about!

Well, I don't know how they are doing this if they aren't transferable but they are listed on StubHub? That does seem strange, but they are listed for sale?? Obviously they are working around that somehow, or else it is a scam of some kind, but StubHub is supposed to be legit for tickets, so I hear. I never bought tickets from them.
