Except you can't list at a reduced price like you could with the old Twickets arrangement. Unless the game is completely sold out, you're stuck with no sale and even if you do sell, you're giving up 25% of the price now instead of 10%. |  | |  |

Did Twickets sell ST seats? If so, it's not so great. |  |

Yes, they also did Crystal Palace and Bournemouth before the clubs realised they could make more money doing it another way! As usual it's the fans who lose out. | | | |

I would hope that your seat would be indistinguishable from others available in the same section, so while you couldn't offer a discount to ensure that it goes first, it would have as much chance as any other. What this at least means is that seats cannot be marked up to prices that only Leeds fans would be willing to pay, just to sit among us and cause trouble. Also I suspect Ticketmaster will take a big chunk of the 25% rather than let the club have it. Still, I hope that the few home games I miss early in the season will pay for one or two of my away trips later on. [Post edited 7 Aug 14:21]

in some ways its better, some ways its worse. I think you're basically putting them back in to the ticketmaster/club database, so you have much more chance of selling them than via twickets, which in reality, not many people knew about, and at 25% less than the match day price, thats a decent amount for the season ticket holder.
The negative...giving anything to ticketmaster is a negative. |  | | |

Just listed mine as I’m working away this weekend. Upper Loft, would get £28 back if it sells. Better than the £0 I would have got but can’t imagine anyone would actually be paying £38 for it!!!
EDIT: was going to add photos but couldn’t. Ticketing website does separate out resale tickets and marks them out on the seat map. Not sure why to be honest, maybe to highlight it’s not a regularly available seat or something? [Post edited 7 Aug 14:32]

Why couldn't it have stayed with twickets - a great well run site for genuine fans buying and selling at market forces prices (but not over face value).
I hate Ticketbast@rd with a passion. |  |

The hatred will explode to a new level when their Dynamic Pricing reaches the UK if it still has not infected your side of the pond. |  | | |

Don't worry, it's been here for a while. Funny how the "dynamic" prices never go down though. | | | |

Do you know bushey if the funds stay in your club account to only subsequently spend there, or if you are able to transfer the cash out? | |

Twickets is superb.
If I was at a loose end at the weekend, I would look Friday night and always secure a cheaper ticket in the paddocks from regular ST holders selling games they couldn’t make. It’s also seamless, the QR code is emailed to you quite quickly.
I’ve also sold a few tickets to the hundred cricket, discounted ones that I’ve got from Middlesex and it’s a really easy process. i’m paid immediately on PayPal. |  | | |

It won't work with Ticketbast@rd, unless there's an option to sell at reduced price. Which there won't be as the club will understandably want to sell unsold tickets at face value. So unless the game is sold out, it won't work. It's a bit cynical from the club tbh. | |

Twickets is great. This won't be - there'll be load of unsold tickets for many matches, leaving empty seats that would have been occupied. |  |

Agree Twickets is good, sold on there a few times including concert tickets. You can price sensibly and at a discount to sell your seat. |  | | |

This is greedy by the club, they’ve already sold a ticket, now they’re double dipping | | | |

I get my ST at Old Gits rate (hereinafter OG).
Will the club resell it at OG rate or at full price? If full price will I get 25% of that or 25% of OG rate?
If the former I’m thinking of buying up a whole raft of OGST’s and putting them up for sale. |  | | |

To be fair they're running a business, not a charity. |  |

Going to put the Plymouth and Hull game on, site is only showing WBA game a available to sell, does that mean we have to wait until they are the next game to be able to make them available? |  |

Put my Dad's senior ticket on the site yesterday afternoon as he can't make this weekend, was gone within a couple of hours. They sold it at the Gold full price of £38, we got £28.50 back. The club makes a turn on the ticket and booking fee, ensures another body in the ground to buy inflation-busting Carling, and we get some money back.
You could conceivably sell a senior season ticket at full price for every game and get £655.50 back for an investment of £402.00 and offset the loss of your heating allowance. [Post edited 8 Aug 10:57]

glad its worked out for you, and im sure it will be fine for sought after games. but its the midweek or lesser games that might be harder to sell at Full price. That's why twickets was great, you could pick up a ticket for £15-20 and at least the seller got something back. now they might be left with nobody in the seat.
@thechef yes I know how businesses work, presumably you're happy paying £7.50 for a warm carling then, as it just business and makes money for QPR 😉 [Post edited 8 Aug 13:40]

Completely agree, there should be the ability to name your own (lower) price. If you can't make it, Coventry at 8pm on a Tuesday will be tougher to shift without that option. But obviously the club will want to sell a fresh ticket first, allowing season ticket holders to undercut them was always a generous offer. [Post edited 8 Aug 11:48]

Just re-read the Club website, as I read it your accumulated 75%’s remains where it is until the end of the season and before that can only be used to purchase additional home tickets or cup tickets. I have season tickets so probably will not need more individual tickets and we all know how many home cup games we get (and win), not quite as attractive as I first thought. | | | |
