    Did you check the box when you signed up requesting for pre-sale information?

    I get the newsletter (is there another way to get the newsletter?) and got nothing about the presale. maybe I did the same and didnt sign up for pre-sale info. That or it was later added and they didn't notify current insider subscribers.

    Well after posting that they're werent any tickets on the general sale..I somehow found 2 upper level seats at 75 apiece. I thought for a moment and quickly filled out the info and bought them. It was mine and my friend's only way in Thursday. So I guess being in the 'nose bleeds' will still be good.

    Pay for your tickets? HA.

    I will leave them at will call for you. If you can't afford to go, then fine, just don't b**** that the rockets/someone else didnt hand them to you for free. They are a business, not a charity.

    Never said having season tickets makes someone a bigger fan. I just hate people b****ing about the rockets making tickets available to the general public or season ticket holders who resell theirs for a mark up. Its the ticket business, supply and demand. The rockets do a damn good job of it too.

    Does anyone have a list of the face values of each of the playoff ticket sections. Want to have an idea about how much of a markup i am paying to my scalper of choice.

    Upper deck is the only section on Flash Seats (at the moment) that are remotely close to face value. Upper is $75 face and a few are going for $90-100. Get those while they last. I don't think they'll go any cheaper than that. Upper seats on the lower section are $175 face and are going for as much as $800 on Flash Seats...

    Speaking of Flash Seats, I had a question.

    After they swipe your form of ID, do they print out the actual tickets or is it like a e-paper ticket?

    did last nights 40 point loss discourage any one here from going to the game? I am still going but i bought 4 tickets so some friends can go..i sure hope no one backs out. and doesn't tell me...i've already spent a fortune on play off tickets so far.

    Honestly, not at all. If you've ever been to a playoff game, it's really unlike anything you'll ever experience, sports-wise. Especially for an elimination game such as this, fans will be on the edge of their seats this entire game screaming for the Rockets to stave off this pesky Lakers team. You either love or you hate watching basketball, but there's so many more things to go bat-**** crazy about in a basketball game than any other sport. Especially during the playoffs, when the arena is filled to the tippy-top. We've seen this team defy the odds on many an occasion this season, and there's no reason that tommorow could be the same situation. So if you have the chance, GO TO THE GAME. (it'l be fun, i promise ;) )

    I do....most tickets are being sold for about twice or more what they paid for them. However, some are trying to get 3 to 4 times the amount of their tickets.

    End sections that were $44.00-$65.00 during the regular season in the lower bowl, were sold to STH for the second round at $54.00-$80.00. For STHs in the upper bowl, regular season was $9.00-$35.00...these were priced at $15.00-$44.00 for the second round.

    I was very surprised to see the Rockets scalped their own tickets for the upper bowl at $70.00. You can see on FlashSeat the general public that bought these Rockets Upper Bowl Playoff tickets...they are trying to sell them for more than $150.00.

    Something I noticed on Flashseats after last night's game...many sellers took the last bid on their tickets...panic selling. It seems to have settled down today. It appears the time to have bought FlashSeat tickets was the 2 hours after last night's game.
