In "My obsession" of trying to figure out where the "excellent seats in each price level" were I have been checking E-bay and the broker sights.

I bought 2 tickets through RS.com Fan site to the Ft. Lauderdale concert, of which I am a bit concerned.

tickets were not available through the Fan Club until the 21st ... a day after Sam Goody... Miami tickets were available a few hours after the Sam Goody Tix.

Brokers have Floor 1 Rows C, D, E... Floor 2 row E.. at the NCRC

How did the Brokers manage to get these tickets, and which tickets were alotted to the fan club...

I did the whole "refresh and refresh" thing on the Fan club site until the Ft. Lauderdale tix were available, so I know I must have been one of the first to get them through there..

I know I'm not the only concerned fan, and I should trust the process, but if the object was to limit the brokers from getting the tix, well that seems to have failed.

Here is just one broker site that seems to have found some good seats...

DO NOT BUY FROM BROKERS.... THEY SUCK!

Brokers will often advertsie they have great seats but in actuality they have only access to them. Meaning someone has offered to sell them those tickets or another broker can get them.Once you show interest they mark up the tickets from what they can source at and only buy them if you confirm with a credit card at the higher price.Nasty business although I did score 5th row MSG for No Security.My gut tells me there will be lots of tickets dumped outside most venues the night of the shows at below cost.$90 for nose bleeds is too high for the casual fan to pay and most people who have a desire have already seen the Stones.Course fanatics like me will hit as many shows and pay whatever but thats life..

On June 16, 2001 the hit counter of the WET page was inserted here, it had 174,489 hits. Now the hit counter is for both the page and the board. The hit counter of the ITW board had 1,127,645 hits when it was closed and the Coolboard didn't have hit counter but was on line only two months and a half.
