Prices are way out of line for the product...... I agree with the higher end ones, I did buck down for really good Brewers tickets this year 2nd row behind home plate (Im a bobble head dork and it was Braun day, all the had left was the $95.00 seats and im also an idiot) to be honest is was pretty cool sitting there. I was expecting to pay around $40.00 for TNA or so to go. It might be a little high, but it sounds about right.

Actually, I just checked on SummerSlam tickets, and floor seats go for $200-$850. I'll stick with the TNA floor seats, not that I'm actually going, but at least I'd spend less.

After seeing the ads for BFG on Impact where everybody is dressed gangster-style in 1920s Chicago, I think I'll skip this one too, especially if Nash is going to be on the card.

Money is better off spent on the UFC when they roll into town.

For 152 bucks ringside I would expect a lap dance from Velvet Sky.

It's $300 face value for those seats compared to the $150 or so here. Plus you get to keep the chair. Yes, I'm sure the actual manufacturing costs aren't that high, but they always seem to resell for a lot. As for UFC, have you seen their prices? A quick look at TicketMaster for UFC 88 shows face value at a high of $604, but with a low of $79! I would like to see the show at Allstate in person, but seeing as it's a smaller venue than the one in Atlanta, I can see face value starting at $100.

Bad news for anyone who had hoped to go for free:
-- TNA has implemented a policy to no longer paper pay-per-view events feeling it's not good long-term business to give tickets away for free, reports the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. TNA would often paper their pay-per-view events the week before the show due to lackluster ticket sales to make the venue appear full to the television audience. Last Sunday's Hard Justice pay-per-view drew 3,500 fans to the 8,500 seat Sovereign Bank Arena in Trenton, New Jersey, another figure that has to be considered disappointing. By not giving away free tickets for Hard Justice, TNA combated the appearance of empty seats by moving nearly all of the fans to one half of the arena to give the illusion to the television audience that they drew a packed arena. One side of the arena had nearly all of fans whereas the hard camera side was practically deserted sans a few fans in the ringside seats.

One would assume that after five plus years of being around and boasting name talent like Kurt Angle,Booker T and Christian and some hot new up and comers like Samoa Joe and AJ Styles they would no longer need to give out free tickets.
And that whole "move the fans to just one side of the arena" just smacks of WCW. I believe I read that in Mick Foley's first book that WCW was notorious for that.

I believe WCW also had to pay actors and actresses to act as fans because ticket sales were horrible

TNA ppvs are awesome and fun to attend live. TNA knows how to treat their fans. Many of the wrestlers in the past have come out before the ppv starts and do photos with the fans. WWE doesn't do that. BOUND for GLORY is going to be a great show. I bought the $52 seat and feel that is a fair price. UFC charges an arm and a leg. So TNA doesn't give away any more free tickets. Won't hurt to pay for a show that is going to be great. Last years BfG was one of the best ppvs of 2007.

I do not think I would even attend if the tickets were free, but that is just me.
