My whole point of doing this little examination of ticket-buying options is that these theatres are holding back good seats from people who plan months in advance to buy tickets -- and who are willing to pay the full retail price for that commitment. I think it is people like you who should be REWARDED for making that commitment. Not punished. I think for people willing to buy in advance, which means also sending their money to the theatre far in advance, should be given some type of courtesy, like, for example, the ability to exchange tickets up to a certain date before performance. Or a discount the further in advance that the tickets are bought. Plus, be given a chance to buy ALL tickets that are available on those performance dates (minus the house seats that are kept back because of contract agreements). I mean to buy those retail priced tickets at good locations without having to go to SeatGeek or some other scalper and have to pay an inflated price above the official ticket price when it looks like those scalpers have the ability to hand back unsold tickets to the box office at the last minute? I mean, how is this fair? And in the long run, how does it benefit the producers? They would rather hold back these retail-priced tickets from people planning in advance so that they can sell them cheap on performance day via TKTS?
