C.Taylor Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 BTW, still no upgrade from UL moving closer to the 50. I'm looking to move from Section 429 to Section 428 and the seat portion of my invoice has gone blank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC9 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 (edited) I'm looking to move from Section 429 to Section 428 and the seat portion of my invoice has gone blank. I'm in 408... not sure if that section is still there or not... but I was hoping to move to 407. All my info (from last year) is still there. Keep us posted please!

zyvo23 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 As others have said, we still have plenty of time this offseason. RG3 hasn't moved the needle in the secondary ticket market prices; in fact they've gotten cheaper. I think the Skins have more tickets available than ever, thus we'll see more people moving down to the lower level than ever before, if the trend continues from the past few offseasons.Hate to dash your hopes about moving inside the 30 yardline in the lower level, but we've yet to see anybody penetrate the 15 yardlines with GA relocations. Doesn't mean it will never happen, but it hasn't seemed to happen yet. Lower level sidelines between the 15 ydlns are the only STs that have held their market value over face during the past 6 years of no GA price increases. I'd agree with this. When I get an email from the Redskins offering me additional tickets and I can add 2 seats in my same section (428) and at the same time they're ripping out more seats, I have to think that there will still be some movement and RG3 hasn't had much effect on ticket sales to date.

tshile Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Just to clarify, my use of the word 'dumb' was more twoards the idea that 'Personal Seat License' is anything other than another way to charge more money. You get nothing out of it. There are no protections afforded to you by the team. If you don't pay for tickets one year you lose your license. It's not a 'license' in any sense of the word. It's a 'dumb' thing to invest in, because you're investing in essentially nothing other than the idea that someone will (stupidly) pay more than you did for it at some point in time in the future. Now if you're accepting it as that and just paying for it because you want to and can afford to, then thats a completely different matter. But if someone were to post on here defending it, and had bought into some idea that a PSL was something to covet and desire, then yes I would consider that person to be 'dumb' as they don't understand what you are (not) getting with this 'license'. hopefully thats clear. i'm pretty sure there are people out there who think they are getting something for the PSL's. I've yet to see an implementation that was more than a thinly veiled added cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeman38 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 (edited) Just got my seat assignment. Sec 111 row 20! My cousin sits 5 rows in front of me, though he will miss this season floatin in the gulf. Edited June 11, 2012 by Popeman38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tshile Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Did you call? They still aren't in my invoice. Also there is no section 11, so that part is a little confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeman38 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 (edited) Did you call? They still aren't in my invoice.Also there is no section 11, so that part is a little confusing. Yup, I called this morning. And my post was missing a 1! I am in 111 row 20. Center of the west endzone. They said the system should be updating over the next 24 hours to reflect LL seat assignments. I called because I had a message from the Club offering to "upgrade" my current seats to the club for 1 season with guaranteed LL sideline seats the following year. While it would be nice, I burned my Club upgrade over the last 3 seasons, can justify a 4th season at those costs, even at 60% off.

tshile Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Ah, well congrats! Thats certainly good information about lower level assignments (next 24 hours), i hope there's some truth to that so this thread can finally die for another 10 months So you bought 3 years with of club seats are part of the agreement to get into the lower level, or am I reading your post incorrectly?

Actually, I just bought 3 years worth of clubs at 60% off to have a climate controlled area for the kid (born in Aug 2010, so we got 2 years of use out of it). We were planning on moving back upstairs, but got lucky enough to be placed downstairs. And nowI am just 5 rows away from linking up with my cousin.

worstSeat Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 (edited) In the meantime I cannot imagine that PSL will be worth more than what the person original paid for them (accounting for inflation of course) Still better than Packers stock, which you can't sell if you wanted to without giving the team a chance to buy them back for nothing first. ---------- Post added June-12th-2012 at 12:25 AM ---------- These posters simply refuse to accept that that kind of cost will mean more money out of their pockets IF they want to attend a game, whether they purchase season tickets or game tickets on the aftermarket. Or it means they get more commercials during the game at home; or higher jersey prices or other team products. Eventually the fan pays in the end. At some point, we collectively need to start saying "no".Sorry...I'll get off my soapbox now..... Hello, well argued. Now when can I spend $540 on two seats behind a six foot concrete post? ---------- Post added June-12th-2012 at 12:25 AM ---------- Actually, I just bought 3 years worth of clubs at 60% off to have a climate controlled area for the kid (born in Aug 2010, so we got 2 years of use out of it).

Did you bargain that down, or did they call you with the discount? ---------- Post added June-12th-2012 at 12:34 AM ---------- Here's an article from the Mercury News:http://www.mercurynews.com/southbayfootball/ci_20815154/san-francisco-49ers-tickets-at-santa-clara-stadium-double-candlestick-price See if I can't get in one more addition to my post before someone else posts... The craziest thing from that article is the price of the Raiders: If you're looking for a bargain, there's always the Raiders. At the O.Co Coliseum in Oakland, season tickets for the Raiders range from $260 to $960 a year for reserved seats, while club seats cost $1,260 to $1,510 per season. Wonder what the $26 seats look like? Think they're on Mount Davis? Pretty good sight lines, at least. Edited June 12, 2012 by worstSeat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeman38 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Did you bargain that down, or did they call you with the discount?Trust me, I bargained that down for about a month. It was worth it because it helped with the kid at games (hot and cold), but it is time to watch a game with the blue collars again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty good sight lines, at least. You are correct about Mt. Davis and the $260 STs. Hard to believe the Raiders had PSLs up until the mid 2000s. Mid field clubs today are only $1510 per seat. http://www.raiders.com/tickets/seating-price-map.html Even the Jags cheapest seat is nearly a hundred dollars more than the Raiders. $350 upper deck endzones, sunny side in Jax. http://www.jaguars.com/tickets/season-tickets.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a solid upgrade getting put in the corner end zone instead of behind the goal posts. Congrats! My upgrade has just been posted on my online account also. I am moving from sec 108 row 16 to sec 207 row 3. So I got moved one section closer to the home side. I requested a move to the 200 level. So Skins TO listened to my request. I also asked to be flipped to the other side of the home bench but did not get that request filled. At least I shouldn't have to stand all game long like those in the 100 level along the sidelines.

Thanks, man. I was hoping to move a couple sections but this will do. With a bad knee and hips, having not to stand all game long was a priority for me. I still get up and down during important times but standing all game long was tough last year. fortunately it didn't happen often. I'm hoping I'm on the aisle but don't know how many seats are in that section in row 3. Need to go check out Mark the Homer's FedEx thread.....

Need to go check out Mark the Homer's FedEx thread..... S&S- I'm in 214 row 2 which is the "sister" section to 208 next to you. There are 16 seats in Row 2. Not sure if that's an exact equivalent for your situation but at least it's a guess. Edited June 12, 2012 by cdheggestad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
