Best time to buy playoff tickets?

[Skooby]

I'm trying to get some decent seats (lower level or club level). I have been to games before but not many, probably about 6 but never to a playoff game.

And I'm always in the nosebleeds except for one time when I was in the 5th row. My cuz managed to get some tickets...it was better than watching it on TV.

Should I get them now or wait until 2 or 3 days before game day? (game will be on the 22nd). Will sellers get desperate to sell the tickets and decrease the price?

In my experience waiting until the last possible minute is the way to go. When the Sixers played the Heat w/ Lebron Wade and Bosh in 2011 I went to game 3 and 4. Game 3 I bought when tickets went on sale and paid like $130, game 4 me and my boy waited until literally an hour before the game and got 200 level seats for $11. The Sixers were only average at the time but the Heat were a huge draw.

Just wait outside the arena with the burner on you and take them from someone.

This. Either buy thx that allow for mobile entry or StubHub usually has a last min spot where you can pick up Tix at after you buy. In Atlanta its always close to the stadium so it's convenient

Yeah, they're going to be mobile tickets from StubHub. I'm assuming it's cheaper on there.

Yea, they were $80 for 100 level. They went up when PG was a star there so they’re prob still high just not as high as a major city.

I don’t know if they’ll allow it for playoff tickets but i got some super cheap regular season tickets to a warriors clippers game this year by buying them off stubhub like a minute after tip off. It also helped that Steph and klay didn’t play but still.

This would be my suggestion too. Right before the game you can't get damn good tickets below face value. Depends on the city and demand as well.

I'm trying to get center court view. The lower level is ranging from $330 and $525 per ticket (including fees). Courtside starts around $750.

I'm buying for two minors as well, so I don't want to wait too long. Looks like Lebron is driving up tickets prices!
