Where do I advertise 1/4 season pair and 1/4 season single Blazer tickets?

I need help. I advertised on CL and nothing. I am a season ticket holder with 3 seats. With my economical downturn, I hate to lose my seats, so I need to sell off some. Any ideas where to post. I do NOT want to do an Ebay or Stubhub deal. Thanks for any input. I am in 323 Row H. If anyone has any suggestions, I would so humbly appreciate the help. GO RIP CITY!

hmmm..

Well.. I’m not sure if this what you want, but there is the official Blazers ticket resale center page for season ticket holders. I’m not sure if this is an option for selling the whole 1/4 season at once or not, but it is backed by the ticket office and buyers get to go pick up their tickets there…makes the transactions much easier.

You have to have at least a half season

To use that system.

It seems a little early

assuming the Blazers don’t suck next year, you shouldn’t have much trouble selling them on Craigslist. But it’s summer, and probably no one but the super faithful (who may already have tickets) are thinking much about the Blazers.

Section 323, go figure.

My guess

is that you’re not selling ahead of time. Very few of my tickets sold more than a week before the actual game last year. the exceptions tended to be the big name games.

I advertised on craigs, but every offer tended to be at 20-40% below ticket value. The blazer website tended to be at or slightly greater. It also had everything organized and dealt with distribution so I didn’t need to.

I’ll be doing some research this year into stubb hub as the policies have changed and selling at my cost to sell the ticket will mean that I lose money as the blazers are now eating into 10% of that sale despite the fact it’s at or below what i paid for them.

"Fernandez, to my eyes, is the Blazer who walks that walk most comfortably. A lot of Portland's fans (egged on, dare I say, by their local broadcasters) lament things like how Ron Artest or Yao Ming get to hit Brandon Roy's arms.

But I suspect Fernandez sees all that and thinks: We get to hit arms! Cool!"

How do you plan to sell tickets when you don't even know the schedule for another 2-3 weeks?

Tony Bennett reports that Minnesota and Portland are swapping draft picks -- Roy to Portland, Foye to Minnesota. That's it? That's the trade? None of the ESPN guys seem remotely fazed. I knew Kevin McHale couldn't just pick the best guy in the draft without somehow screwing it up. I would have bet my Ndudi Ebi rookie cards on it.
