Their site says within seven days of the event. No site pays before the event anymore because of Covid cancellations

Got paid today via stubhub. Ive sold a bunch through them this year and most of the transactions went fine. However they have the absolute worst customer service. I waited for hours and never got anyone on the phone. couldn’t find an email either. I just finally got paid for an Iowa game ticket sold.

I think i may try TickPick. I bought UNLV tickets through them and had some questions. Their customer service was awesome and followed up personally to make sure it went ok.

I’ve always been leery of buying/selling tickets through these brokers. Why did you choose stubhub over the other options?

Ticketmaster doesn’t let you sell tickets below face value so that seems like a big reason I wouldn’t use them. Stubhub also seems to handle selling Hillside seats and Parking Passes a little better than others. This is the first time I’ve sold tickets. So I’ll probably try others before i settle in on one. I’ve only bought through VividSeats, Tickpick, and Ticketmaster.

Thanks for sharing. Which one have you had better experiences with and which one would you recommend?

Buying via Ticketmaster. I suppose StubHub is ok for selling. I’ve probably made 20 sales and had 1 issue.

It is really clear when you list that they will pay 7 days AFTER the event.

I had to sell 2 of my group of tickets to the OSU game. Think it took 8 days for the money to show in my bank account.

Patience Grasshopper. You will be paid. I was worried after the UNI game until I remebered that I was looking for my payment in the wrong account. :)

The tickets i tried to sell below face were for OSU. I had bought them as single game tickets through ticketmaster as an original purchase for a friend. We found better seats later on, and i tried to resell the tickets that were already on Ticketmaster and it wouldn’t let me sell them under face value. Maybe that limitation doesn’t apply if it were my season tickets that were on the ISU app.

I sold 4 tickets to various games back in July. When the tickets were loaded to my account (August), I transferred them to the purchasers. The week of the games, I was contacted by the buyers claiming they didn't have any communication that the tickets were transferred. I had the email from Iowa State saying they had been transferred. Ended up canceling the transfers and starting over. Did I try to transfer the tickets too early? Anyone else have this happen?

I've just used stubhub a ton. I mean I've probably sold tickets on there 100 times with zero issues. I think their fees are absurd but it makes it so easy I'm always tempted to just use them.

Me too...in fact, I was in Wrigley the night they qualified for divisonal play and on my phone got Stubhub tickets for a Cardinal game that year....first 6 Cubs in the lineup hit homers that tight.
Received my Ticketmaster payment today.

Ticketmaster has my home WiFi’s IP address blocked and won’t unblock it. Combine that with the outrageous service charges and they’re one of my most disliked companies.

Definitely saw tickets below face value there when I shopping for this last Tuesday. Ended up getting the 2 for 1 in person on Saturday because screw’em.
