    So, I was looking at the titans ticket exchange and went in to read the terms and conditions. Crazy:

    "If a ticket is sold, you will receive 90% of the ticket’s Posting Price...The tickets will then be listed for sale for 115% of the Posting Price...the buyer will pay 115% of the Posting Price, plus a buyers processing charge and an authentication and ticketFast® fee"

    So, to summarize, they get 15% of whatever you list, you only get 90%, so essentially they get 25% of the total sales price. Then, they charge the buyer 3 fees to buy the tickets. Yes, three. I understand covering your costs, but 25% seems like pure profit and they make the buyer pay all the fees. There's no way you can use this thing to sell @ face because they won't let you go below face when entering. Who's gonna pay $63 for a single in the corner for the Browns???

    Ridiculous...

    That's why they call them ticket SCALPERS. It's ridiculous.
    Try selling them on ebay, or craigslist

    here's an idea... go to the game...

    or just relax and take a friend for free... just because you can.

    it's the Titans revocable license in the first place.
    they don't have to let you resell anything.
    they could make that borderline criminal if they wanted to.

    be thankful they provide a system that can let you recover what you have in the tickets. I'm sorry but as a multiple psl holder I don't have an ounce of sympathy for anyone voicing dissatisfaction with that system.

    and for real... if nothing else list them on ebay, stubhub or craig's list like Hoffa said.

    I've used the Atlanta Braves ticket exchange and there is a small fee, but nothing close to 25%. It was cheaper than using Ticketmaster and you print your tickets off on your home pc. It's worked great, so I thought it was neat that the Titans were doing the same thing. I just had no idea that they were charging that much. I think that's a little crazy, but if I needed to unload some tickets for some cash, I would consider using it. Getting something is better than nothing.

    So there's big and bold (BP), and then Big, Bold, and Blue (Admin)... What do you have to do to get big and/or bold?
