For everyone asking about Platinum Tickets, see thread TLDR - They are normal tickets, but their prices fluctuate with demand. In the case of BTS tickets, that means they have surge pricing turned on Sometimes, they are first few rows of a section, but not all the front rows

While you're buying tickets, you have to constantly filter out Platinum tickets. Uncheck the box and pay attention The box gets checked again CONSTANTLY Use my pricing chart for reference for what are reasonable prices

Unfortunately, as expected, Suga tickets sell out very very fast. Therefore, if you are in line for too long, only Platinum Tickets will be left (and maybe GA VIP Soundcheck since that isn't as popular). Platinum tickets are marked a slightly lighter blue than normal tickets

Platinum Tickets are an opt-in by the performing party/Event Organizer. It is not turned on by default

This is why I’ve been nervous about Sc00ter hanging out too close to BPD tbh. Sad to see USA greedy marketing seeping in

And now theyre putting adds on weverse & want to charge for add free/ live translations... tg for the army translators who are the rocks of this fandom

Guys be louder with your disappointment, this is them abusing our love and loyalty for tannies.

This is extremely disappointing. Now I know that it wasn't just Ticketmaster, but @HYBEOFFICIALtwt that screwed me over in my attempt to get Suga tickets. Fans should not have to spend that kind of money on concert tickets. I'm scared of BTS' comeback tour.

@HYBEOFFICIALtwt please don’t ruin relationship @BTS_twt have built with fans not for corporate greed. The fans are loyal and work so hard to buy merch and albums. Using dynamic pricing is disappointing and exploitative. There must be other ways you can increase your bottom line

Just curious how much more money Hybe has targeted to squeeze from each fan in their true fan-bases… which is who their choice to surge profit truly affects.

OR They could simply sell the tickets at set prices for specific seats and sections and that be that. They make this too complicated when it’s not rocket science to sell tickets

I am so disappointed. I don't live anywhere near their normal venues so I have to pay for multiply hotel nights and travel expenses. Dynamic pricing will mean I will never get to see them in concert again. 😭😭😭

So disheartening - US ARMYs now arw being forced to pay more to see Hybe artists aaaaand have the added pressure to buy music/singles, so their artists can chart on the BB charts.

Very disappointing to hear. As someone from Europe who were never able to attend a concert, this dream will probably stay a dream now. Including flights and hotel, tickets are impossible to afford with dynamic pricing. Can‘t believe this.
