Similar to last year, multiple different percentages; gotta look at listings individually

Anyone ever put a chair down on 12 or 16 tee?  What’s the strategy to getting a spot there? 

 

 

Try putting your chair at 6 to watch the shots over your head. You can also see 15 and 16. Thank me later.

Stubhub now has 46 tickets for the Women's Amateur: https://www.stubhub.com/augusta-national-women-s-amateur-championship-augusta-tickets-4-6-2024/event/153307277/?quantity=0&estimatedFees=true

Does anyone have experience with StubHub tickets being mailed? Do I have to sign? Thinking if I buy this week and they come next week do I need to be home to sign or can I try and tell them to leave it through my Ring camera

Sunday = fuchsia red

So is it a safe assumption to say if we see something for around $1000 (practice round) that it’s a legit seller and not a speculator?

Last year UPS delivered. I did not have to sign. They left mine on the front door mat. I was home the day I received them.  The delivery this year says FedEx. I bought a Monday off SH this year and already got a note its going out for shipping. Maybe someone else on this thread had Fedex delivery last year, if not I can let you know how it arrives.

Just out of curiosity - do the tickets mailed from the Masters to someone require signature. I was fortunate to get a practice round and the pack was just tossed on front porch.

Yikes just being left on front porch isn’t great.

Interesting this guy had a photo of the tickets on TUE; maybe an insider

we are 1500 miles away from AGNC and we got our on Wednesday, so not impossible.

Ours came ups , no signature

Friday's are green. Tossed on the porch. Stubhub tickets in the past have been sent UPS/FEDEX overnight. Everyone I know that won the lottery now has tickets in hand. 

[dmbolp]

Practice round inventory continues to increase, low prices holding, but more tickets in those lowest price buckets

Fairly sure this was almost removed then reposted at $2400 each, seller didn’t post correctly first. Was tracking it

I would think whoever won those will be removed from any future lottery drawings but maybe they don't care.

They care, and cancel tickets before the event, and cancel the person awarded the tickets

Sorry, I know ANGC cares but I was referring to the person who actually won the tickets.

Ah got it.  But the seller should care, they're gonna have a dispute from their buyer if the tickets don't scan.

Do tourney badges ship at the same time as practice badges?

 

[dmbolp]

$40 for old practice round ENVELOPES and INFO SHEETS, not even old tickets! 🙂

You can have mine for $35...🤣

 

This makes me laugh more than the fact than someone telling me people would pay $50 for the *BAGS* from the members pro shop. Not actual logo'd bags - but my actual shoping bags.

[sjaccaud]

For tourney rounds, you may check out Bucket List Events. Thier prices have been getting better and we just bought Thursday at $2,775 all in and that comes with some hospitality.

 

We have all of our tickets secured and this thread has been very valuable. Thanks for all of the info, especially, @dmbolp

[dcmidnight]

To protect everyone involved and to not circumvent the rules - do not use this thread to buy/sell tickets between members.

 

If you have tickets to sell, post them in the BST with pictures like you normally would.

 

Especially involving brand new members who just signed up for the site - you are just asking to get scammed.
