The Astros Ticket Exchange group on Facebook is great for last minute deals. Pretty much the only place I buy tickets from now.

2015, I'm a member of that group. Haven't bought tickets from there yet.

How do you make sure you don't get scammed by someone selling tickets from that group?

I'll either post in the group and ask if someone can vouch or just look through the person's post history and see if there's been transactions. It's always a risk- but if you do your due diligence it's easy to avoid being scammed. You can usually tell just from the initial exchange to buy if they're legit or not. I've never had a bad experience personally.

I think Seatgeek is going to be a lot better this season. They are the official reseller AND they have added an algorithm pricing feature for sellers, so that your price will stay with the trend and automatically get lower as you get closer to the game.

Looking now I even see some sub $30 seats in club for tonight.

Some good deals. The fees add like 30% though.

ETA: apparently they stop selling when the game starts.

1-5 with a positive run differential. Brutal.

I think Hader will get it going but I've pretty much written Abreu off. He's a real drag on the offense given his position. Time to just drop him to the 9 spot.

Maybe banning Jetch is the lucky trick. Banned, no no. Back, blown save. Just sayin.

And still getting divine interventions from a higher power nobody can see or hear.

Your definition of "divine" may be different than mine.

A quick glance shows 30% is undershooting it. Fees looked to be between 50-75% of the cost of tickets for cheap tickets- saw several sets of tickets that were $15 each but fees were $10 per ticket). $25 per seat is still cheap, but not far off of box office prices.

I'm sure the Astros are getting a cut since Seat Geek is the "official partner" this year.
