    I don't think they have a plan in place yet. Call and ask the ticket hotline and post what they told u

    Probably like last year where they give you the 2 options. Pay the whole balance at once. Or spread it out over 4 or 5 monthly payments. I believe last year the 5 monthly payment option started with March.

    Just received an email response from the Jets .

    Hi Vincent,

    Thank you for your email. Season Ticket invoices will be sent out within the next month or two. You will be offered payment plans then and can call in to discuss.

    Thank you,

    Why are people so excited to hand the Jets over thousands of dollars for another shit season?

    I'm hoping the bill gets lost in the mail.

    Great Season Tickets $400: 8 x $50 (extra tics floating around during tail gaiting).

    If you walk around the parking lot hitting tail gate parties asking if anyone has and extra tic for $50 (have money out) guarantee you won't walk far. My recommendation is scope out the place a bit first and hit the bigger parties with the hotties (and lots of food and beer)...never hurts to sit next to Kate Upton for 4 hours!

    edit: you actually meet a lot of great fans this way, I've actually been told to keep my money and just given a spare ticket for free.

    they should have paid you last thanksgiving night.

    unless you had a video camera with you and applied for a copyright on " buttfumble".

    why didn't fireman ed just call a press conference at halftime and just hand someone a note that said " i resign as head cheerleader of the nyj".

    Received an email today asking to confirm my information...Called my representative to tell him I do not want to renew my tickets, have been a season ticket holder for 20 years...Spending close to $800 for preseason games, 4 tickets @ $95 per, is the final straw, could put up with it when team was good...

    I think my father, who has tickets, is going to be doing the same thing. There is no need to have season tickets anymore when you can just buy tickets to any game you want at or under face.

    This is a big deal. the secondary market is hurting all sports franchises at this point but particularly in the bigger venues and when the team is not that good at the moment.

    Walk up sales for games are down and absentee ticket holders are the main reason for that. The tickets get re-sold and the team loses the extra sale at the window.

    They're going to have to figure out how to either invalidate ticket re-sales or more likely accommodate in some way that minimizes the impact of re-sales on the bottom line.

    It's really hard to invalidate re-sales because that effects the primary value of the ticket and it's likely that any crackdown on re-sales is going to result in fewer tickets sold in the first place.

    Accommodation might look like the team offering a fixed price to buy back tickets in a short period before the game, like 3 days or so, and offering maybe 66.7% of the face value of the ticket. That would stabilize the re-sale value at a manageable level and offer the team chances to sell tickets at face value in the days right before a game. It's not a perfect solution and it wouldn't resolve the issue but it would give teams a bit more control on the dynamics of the re-sale and walkup issues they face now.

    The carrot for the team in terms of last minute sales directly to customers would be matching customers to the best possible seats in their price range, including the bought-back tickets the team had collected before each game. It would be putting service back into the ticket-selling process and introducing people to the best possible experience for their money as a result of dealing directly with the team.

    they were talking on the radio about having to have the original ticket in hand to get in. this would stop the purchases an hour before the game in the internet in the parking lot for 1/4th of face value.

    the real issue here is that the secondary market sets the market, the jets and most others need to see that they are no longer going to be able to price things however the fuck they want. they will have to look at what their product is really worth on the open market... and oh my do they not want to do that at this point. they are still banking on people being dumb enough to just send in their money and not ask any questions...

    and thats just not happening anymore. people are getting wise and realize they can get tickets for under face for the 8 games that really matter to go to that piss poor stadium and watch that piss poor product.

    The secondary market only sets the market for a certain percentage of the market, those being the fans who want to go to games but cannot afford PSL's in order to buy season tickets and don't want to sit in the nose-bleeds to avoid them.

    The secondary market does however impede the teams ability to sell to impulse customers, tourists, etc, who will often show up out of the blue because the weather is good that day or their team is in town. Even then the tourists often have arranged tickets well in advance. It's only the walk-ups that are dramatically effected by the ability to go online and find cheap tickets quickly.

    I don't think admissions enforcement of tickets the Jets have sold is ultimately a sound plan for controlling the secondary market. I think the better plan is to find ways to make buying from the Jets just as compelling as buying on the secondary market. Most people would prefer a seat sold by the team directly to other options if the rewards for doing so were comparable.

    what the secondary market has done is make people realize there are tickets at or below face at this point and that there are some games they may pay a bit more for.

    but they are walking away from psls or upper deck tickets to buy tickets to the games they want or to the 8 games that matter instead of the 10 that being a season ticket holder makes you responsible for. there is no value in being a season ticket holder at this point. you can go for less as a non season ticket holder on a per game basis.
