    It is compared to the guy who got the Spurs tix in the page before, but I paid more ($80 iirc) back in 2015 in the first rd against Dallas.

    On Rockets site it shows $59 each, $132 for two after the convenience fee.

    Wait till the last minute when people are desperate to sell their tickets. You could possibly get a great deal.

    I think flash seats has a limit how much below face value you can sell them at.

    They sure do...
    So now you either sell you're tickets at almost face value. OI you go to the game, orrrr you don't go cuz you had something come up and then you're tickets don't get sold cuz no one wants to buy for that price

    Yeah, but face value for STHs selling their own seats is very low compared to face value that Rockets sold to general public....they are only about 25% above regular season prices.

    So since the majority of seats are owned by STHs, you could see some really low prices.

    If it was week 15 and the fake Oilers were 2-13 and playing the Cleveland Browns, that s##+ would be sold out with people paying $200 for nosebleed seats.

    No, game is not sold out. Quite a few non-resale tickets still available through the Rockets app and Toyota Center website. And like you said, a bunch available through flashseats.

    Kinda embarrassing not to sell out a playoff game, but unless they drop pricing, I don't see it happening until maybe the second round (or if this series goes 7).

    The stadium looks half empty today especially the lower bowl. I am taking the extra shirts.

    A 100 bucks for nosebleed seats? The spurs tickets are half the price. Upper sidelines are 60 bucks for the spurs. The rockets continue the price gouging. I might skip this round for WCF.
