Good luck Fans are going to drop their season tickets and just buy individual game tickets so they can avoid the PSL fee. So many Jets and Giants fans did this, and I would imagine many Bills fans will do the same thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know for a fact that every single person that I have met in my section over all these years will not be paying the PSL fee if it is 10k or more per ticket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And some fans want to go no matter what and will do it. But there’s got to be some benefit to owning them too. I’d imagine once you own the PSL you can just sell those PSLs to someone. If there were PSLs prior to Josh coming here, I’d imagine you could easily double what you paid form them now. But the reverse is also true, buying them now, with Josh being here and after he leaves and we’re back to the basement in the league you’ll get stuck holding the bag with no one to sell to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very curious to see what PSL's will be, and how that resell market will look. My family has season tickets since the stadium opened, so we have a good priority when the new seats can be selected.

noacls Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 20 hours ago, Virgil said: I think we are raising them more aggressively and will go from one of the cheaper tickets in the league to the top 25%. I'd argue that the city of Buffalo has no business being that top bracket. There's a USA today article from September 2023 that said the Bills were a top 5 most expensive ticket, between average season ticket prices and resale market. I think that's a bit ridiculous.

BillsPride12 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Really curious to see what the season ticket market is going to look like once the new stadium opens. I talk to as many people as I can around town to gauge where they are at and the majority of the responses are "I'm waiting to see what the damage is going to be" but I know some people are ready to hang up their seasons regardless and that's where I'm at. Gonna enjoy the next two seasons but after that I'm done and I will have no regrets not going to games anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately you won’t have the ability to decide after the fact. I’d imagine within another month or 2 (now that they finally announced plans for the process) more information will be known as to what seats prices and PSLs might be. When deposits might be due. And the situation once you want to leave. Like I said, I am pretty sure once you pay for the PSL they are yours and you’ll be able to sell them or give them to someone if you wish. But what the market will be for them at that point is unknown. Worst possible scenario is if the stadium opens and for whatever reason, Allen isn’t here anymore, I say good luck with that. Because imo we’re back to the basement. Best case scenario we are better than we are now, maybe just fresh off a SB win. And someone is willing to not only buy them but double the price of the PSL. Unfortunately no one will know until that time comes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many people I know are done once the new stadium is built. But we all know with this fan base people won’t be able to stay at home every week. Many Former ST holders will decide that instead of getting seasons they plan on going to 2-4 games a year and will pick and choose which ones. If that’s the case, look for secondary market prices to skyrocket even more than they are now. But again, like I jist said in my other post, that all depends on how good the team is. Once Allen goes, and we’re back to the basement, many STH will be stuck holding the bag at the end. which brings me to my next point, are you able to sell the PSL back to the Bills at any point in time if you choose. All questions that might be answered once the new stadium experience is up and running. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I don’t remember exactly what I paid last year but it looks like they are $5,074 this year. I feel like that was pretty similar to last year. I’m expecting it to be about double in the new stadium when you factor in the PSL for the same general location/ammenities. I’m excited to go to the virtual setup to check out new locations. It sounds like that’s coming soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All questions that might be answered once the new stadium experience is up and running. Agree on the secondary market. As to the timing, it's not unreasonable to consider that they're waiting until the last possible time to release the price info so as not to dampen the mood of Bills Mafia and all that's associated with it. It's also reasonable to assume that when those prices are released, it's going to be a thing that permeates at least the regional media and social media. The prices have already more or less been released via their "survey," and Pegula has plainly stated that "his contribution" will be driven by the PSLs. It's also been stated that PSLs are a "one time" payment. Not sure that there's anything in there that suggests that the team will buy them back, because that's Pegula's "contribution" to the stadium expense. Why would he give that back? Maybe I'm wrong, but my understanding is that if the STs are not renewed, then ownership defaults back to the team, as usual, and they can then charge another PSL to whomever purchases them next. It's the gift that keeps on giving for owners. Am I off there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartan19 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Does anyone know if they will release PSL prices before the selection process begins? I would rather know now so that I can plan, then find out 3 minutes before i have to make a decision. I hoping they become more transparent with this process.

The main reason I justify possibly keeping them, is the ability to resell our PSL's If the survery they sent out either last year at this time or two years ago at this time means anything, those will be on/about the pricing. I've got the survey if you need the info. It's too rich for my blood, that's all I know, even if only on principle. I don't sit in siht seats anymore, and if I have to pay as much to go to Bills game for me and a couple of my family members, as it would cost me to take a week vacation somewhere, where I can also watch the game on TV, that decision is clear. It's also difficult to explain to my family if I go alone why I dropped almost $1k on a seat, parking, hotel, etc. for just myself to go to a game under the prices that they put out in their survey, and as mrags says, many if not most will be bought by brokers that put them at even greater cost on the aftermarket. For example, the survery price for LL between the 40 and 20 runs about $240/game, not including the PSL. So with Allen on the team, figure double that just for the ticket on the aftermarket. Then add parking, concessions, hotels, etc. Club level seats are going to be nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To their credit, everyone would want a "free VR tour" if they didn't charge something. It had to be high enough to weed out those not seriously interested in seasons. And also in fairness, $150 will be nothing compared to the cost of tix for those that do buy them. I'm not taking a position on that one way or the other, I've been an aftermarket for the big games or games of my choosing guy for years now. I view this as much of a business as they do in terms of attending games. I don't like to be thought of as something to be emotionally bilked for a billionaire and the league of billionaires.

Last time when I spoke with my rep they informed me the current wait list for tix is over 7k people. Imo they are banking on that. Once the new stadium is built it’ll have approx 10k less seats. Then after thousands don’t renew after the sticker shock they will be in a place where they feel comfortable with the people they have on the wait list. im with you on the whole thing. The prices are going to be ridiculous. I honestly don’t know if I’m going to renew or not. Waiting to see the costs. I’m planning for the worst and saving accordingly for it. But also fully prepared to walk away if it’s just crazy. Like I’ve always said in all my bitching and complaining about this whole process. I’m ok paying club seat prices for seats in the new stadium. But If im going to spend that kind of money I want to be comfortable, warm, and dry in the winter. If I can’t get that for a reasonable price, I’ll watch from my couch.

QCity Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 The experience center is where fans will experience their potential seat in the new stadium in virtual reality and feel what it is like to sit in a variety of seats from a 360-degree view. Fans will also be able to design where they want to park and tailgate and then enter and make their way around the new stadium, in addition to finding out what their options will be for food and beverages. The Bills are still seeking fans interested in signing up to be on the waiting list for season tickets at the new stadium. Those interested can sign up online, drop a $150 deposit and then they’ll be welcomed to the experience center after current season ticket holders. The $150 is for people without season tickets.

If you do buy ST in the new stadium, it goes towards the 2026 tickets. Here's the chat: Thanks. I definitely recall reading that it was not refundable months back, maybe they changed it. Probably worth dropping a refundable deposit to catch a glimpse then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo they are banking on that. Once the new stadium is built it’ll have approx 10k less seats. Then after thousands don’t renew after the sticker shock they will be in a place where they feel comfortable with the people they have on the wait list. im with you on the whole thing. The prices are going to be ridiculous. I honestly don’t know if I’m going to renew or not. Waiting to see the costs. I’m planning for the worst and saving accordingly for it. But also fully prepared to walk away if it’s just crazy. Like I’ve always said in all my bitching and complaining about this whole process. I’m ok paying club seat prices for seats in the new stadium. But If im going to spend that kind of money I want to be comfortable, warm, and dry in the winter. If I can’t get that for a reasonable price, I’ll watch from my couch. All while picking up 2-3 games a year on the secondary market. Well, fwiw, the survey pricing for between the 40's club-level anywhere, will run between $4,000 and $6,050 per seat. I guest that would be between $444/$500/seat and $672/$756/seat, plus the PSLs, which are also per seat, and between $11,200 and $24,450 per seat. End zones and upper deck corners much better obviously, but as with you, gone are the days that I'm willing to sit in the upper end zones or even upper decks. I cringe at the lower bowl secondary market prices if those prices end up being real. The least expensive covered/heated seats weren't too bad, but there aren't many of them. They're the mezzanine level end zone seats at $820 per seat plus a $2,100 PSL. I imagine that those incredibly limited number of seats will be in high demand. Most the cheap seats have no heat or coverage according to the survey. Maybe something has changed, who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 3 hours ago, PBF81 said: Well, IDK, just reporting what they've said. Maybe they'll change it and it'll be free. I agree. But if you're definitely going to buy STs under the new arrangement, I believe that it's a deposit on your ST costs. Not that $150 will go that far. LOL I'm sure there's a link on TOS. The Bills are still seeking fans interested in signing up to be on the waiting list for season tickets at the new stadium. Those interested can sign up online, drop a $150 deposit and then they’ll be welcomed to the experience center after current season ticket holders. https://buffalonews.com/news/local/business/fans-still-waiting-for-a-virtual-reality-view-of-the-buffalo-bills-new-stadium/article_3b169834-7fd6-11ee-806c-a37a817c4a75.html So for $150 you'll be welcomed. LOL I think the $150 deposit is for NON-season ticket holders, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
