I’m coming from NW Indiana. I haven’t been to Mecca since the Smith years, and my wife has never been to Arrowhead. We have a goal of going to see the chiefs in every stadium, so it’s been all road games since we’ve been married [Reply]

I'm not sure that's true about an unwritten rule. I just thought $250 profit on a $400 ticket was a little steep. But they're his tickets, he can do what he wants.
I'll wait a few days for the market prices to come down. [Reply]

Oh, I agree completely. And I said as much. He can ask as much as he wants, and I hope that he didn't think that I was giving him blowback. If so, I wholeheartedly apologize. That was never my intention. I've bought tickets from him before and hopefully will do so in the future. He's a good guy. [Reply]

We're all good guys. I understand where you both were coming from. I'm definitely capitalizing here but not too the extent I could have. [Reply]

It used to be more common before Ticketmaster took over and fixed online fraud issues. These days there's a clear and visible place to get a feel for market prices, so it makes sense that the measuring stick for a decent price is based more on market price than face value. [Reply]

There won't be any upper level seats - but will be some in club and in the 123-124 sections, as well as between the 30's on the visitors side.
Gonna run between $400-$800 per.
I saw plenty of seats this morning in my section 303 around me (row 32). Practically the entire row behind me is for sale on the Chiefs website. Starting at $578. [Reply]

Yeah, those are Ticketmaster Exchange seats, the prices I mentioned in the post you quoted was what I expect when/if the Chiefs release some seats.
