yup. remember mine was $104 a ticket for the finals.

We sold game 3 and it paid for our whole season ($645) and playoffs.

Good deal although it was an iconic game but when you did it who knew

My regular season are my 34th year and it looks like they stayed the same

Very happy - stuck with them through thick & thin glad they are taking care of us

I do feel bad for all the young fans who got in first chance and are seeing big jumps hopefully not to bad

This year was $103/ticket. Just e-mailed my rep

You should follow up to see why you were increased. Should be no increase if your account was not flagged as a reseller. You should also ask why your Round 1 is $143 that sounds high. Upper Rows Loge 4-9 is $120 Round 1, still outrageous but not $143 outrageous.

LOL. How bad is that when not raising prices any more than they already have after a few sucky years is "taking care of us."

Apparently I'm flagged. I'll have attended 20/44 this year and 24 last year. The ones I sold were through the Bruins ticketexchange

I just need to add that the in game presentation by the Bruins now could be the worst in the NHL. The new host this year is not helping but 9 times a game they are badgering you to buy something. It's too much.

Seems reasonable for a STH to attend half of the home games.

It is outrageous that the Bruins are using their own Ticket Exchange site to look for resellers to the the disadvantage of us not being able to use it without fear of getting flagged as a reseller. Even worse that they get outrageous commissions on a resale while still flagging an account and increasing their price point.

I wonder if getting flagged depends on whether you resell at face value or if it is reselling at profit that gets you into trouble.

Yep. I've probably been to 2/3 of the games since 07-08. Probably $45K. I live about 80 miles west of the city. Seems like a major F-U to a loyal die-hard lifelong fan. Most I sold for 10% or so over face. Should've just used stubhub I guess. Jacobs + mob = bruins

So if you use ticket exchange and sell at what you paid you get flagged?

That's precisely why I won't use TicketExchange.. seems like big brother jeremy can monitor all transactions

They flagged a bunch of accounts last season. Were you not flagged last season but you got flagged this season? Just curious if the B's campaign to flag resellers was a one time thing last season or if this is something that they are going to continue to do.

I wasn't flagged last year. The wording from my rep was that management conducted another "reseller analysis"

Jacobs gets a piece of the Ticket Exchange transaction and you still get flagged? I would appeal - that is outrageous even for Jacobs.

I asked my rep if there was someone I could meet with or talk to. If they stick to this, I might have to find a new team.....:help:

If you do talk to somebody then if you are willing to ask if the Ticket Exchange reseller flag analysis is done on face value resellers or if it is only on profit resellers.

Sorry you find yourself in this positon. It is completely unfair especially for someone that attends more than half of the games.
