I am going with my cousins. I grabbed three tickets at $298 a pop last week.
Based on that, the prices are going down. I assumed they would go down but I wanted to make sure since I was booking my flight.

I'm looking in the sections 200 and they're about 350 to 400 bucks a pop then add in all the servicing fees for about 150 bucks. A ticket comes to about 1,200 bucks for both

I just checked Stubhub and Vivid Seats. Upper end zones, if that's your thing, can be had for $209 plus fees. Lots of tickets still for sale, so I'm going to wait it out.

Have you used vivid before? I haven't used them. I wasn't sure of anyone's experiences with them

Being local, I have a bit of an advantage as far as waiting as long as possible to see what the prices do. I can wait as late as noon on Thursday to pull the trigger so maybe they nosedive like the Fiesta Bowl tix did.
I live in Delray Beach, I am doing the same see if these prices come down. All my PSU friends are planning a huge tailgate starting at noon so I can roll into the parking lots anytime if I score a ticket around noonish Thursday.

I have been following the Orange Bowl ticket prices the last few days. There still seem to be a lot of seats available, and prices continue to come down. The same thing happened for the Fiesta Bowl. I would probably buy tomorrow if I were traveling in from out of town, but you might be able to get even better pricing if you can wait until Wednesday. But be careful because at some point, the downward trend may reverse as the scalpers may jack up prices to try to capture last-minute buyers and recoup some of their investment.

Two things to consider when buying tickets. A buddy of mine (Arizona State guy) went to the Texas game. He originally didn't buy tickets but waited until it got closer to the game. He got really good seats at a really good price. I don't know that I can personally handle that stress of waiting, but it usually pays off. Also, I am frequent user of Stubhub. My wife and I attend lots of concerts and I buy tickets all the time, just to resell them. I have probably used it at least 1000 times. However, recently I have noticed a problem in that if I log into the site and my wife also goes to the site, she can get the same tickets cheaper than I can. I have spent literally hours chatting with customer service but they can't give me a valid reason why. Now when we want tickets, I will log in and find them and then she will buy them through her account. It isn't usually a huge price difference, but it you might want to try going to the site from different devices just to see.

Do you toss (i.e. clear) your browser cookies every day?

Airlines are notorious for offering low fares to what they think are first time browsers/purchasers but then increase the prices if the same people log in later but forget to delete their cookie history.

Right now, lowest prices: StubHub = $198 $191; Vivid Seats = $195.


EDIT: Get-in now at $191 on StubHub. Prices are coming down.
