i know, that's why i'm likely getting rid of them. if my 20+ tailgate crew still went to 8 games a year, i would as well. they don't, so it's not nearly as fun for me as it used to be.

no problem. not really in a touch spot, i just think my goal, to go to 3-4 games a year, is better served by selling my PSLs, for half price or whatever, and cherry picking a few 1pm games each year.

losing the PSL $$ or the $$ lost on re-sales doesn't really matter to me. more annoying than anything. life would seem simpler to me to not deal with invoices, PDF downloads every other week, lowering my listing price, getting the check from Stubhub, depositing it, etc...

we've disagreed on stadium pricing dynamics for years, so it's part of the fun at this point.

thanks, very helpful. 2 seats off the aisle. i wanted aisle convenience, without the random elbow from a guy carrying a basket full of french fries down the stairs. i have zero ebay experience, but that looks like the way to go.

If you bought a PSL with the thought of winning or losing money you couldn't afford it to begin with.

Neither do I. Go ahead and continue your little charade since it seems to float your boat so much. Your unwillingness to provide any shred of evidence translates into an inability to do so. Gee, I wonder why?

Unfortunately I don't think we can do that being in the contract, we're obliged to buy tickets every year. If we don't purchase tickets, the financed payment becomes void and the entire remaining balance on the PSL is due in one payment. So, basically we have three options.....continue to buy tickets and finance the PSL, don't purchase tickets, pay off the PSL in one payment, lose rights to buy the tickets and give the PSL back to the Jets or default on the PSL and face the possibility of getting sued. Honestly, I feel I jumped the gun and rode the AFC Championship wave into buying PSL's, not thinking about the financial burden it has put on me.

and then we`ll see the blackouts take place and fans STILL won`t run to the games. You would think a blackout threat would be a good thing for the Jets to do. More fans will probably boycott the Jets and they`ll never be seen on tv playing/losing at home. LOL

Glad to see you realize what is likely to happen. I think you should get out there with signs wrapped around your neck pushing for people to become PSL owners. You and Grayson can stand around the streets of Manhattan, each taking a corner and rotating.

Sadly, the Jets and Giants are going to get a lot of this. Neither did credit or income verification checks before agreeing to lend a lot of money. Heck, I initially financed $46,000 minus down payments and they didn't ask my age, work status, income level, credit history... nothing! Not unlike mortgages given out during the Bush years. How the Jets did this was the epitome of fiscal irresponsibility.. but I shudder to think how many PSL buyers would have been declined by the financing entities behind the Jets. It is beyond me how those entities that financed the stadium for the jets and Giants allowed the teamss to lend money without doing credit/income verifications. The Giants will have way fewer defaults, notwithstanding the extra 23,000 PSLs in the upper deck, because its fan base is older and more established. The Jets, on the other hand, were desperate to fill this stadium so agreed to lend money to anyone who was willing to sign on the dotted line.

In the end, they have no business not expecting a massive number of defaults. It's entirely their own fault. I have no sympathy for them.

I obviously have no sympathy for the Jets when it comes to the endless lists of mistakes they have made regarding this stadium. But I'm also hard-pressed to have any sympathy for the defaulting fans either. I just don't understand how they didn't understand the financial obligation they were entering into. This was post collapse of the sub prime bubble and the complete tanking of the economy. I'm absolutely dumbfounded by some of these comments.

Agreed. I don't get how people could not understand what they were signing. I know the Jets fan base is not exactly Mensa material, but seriously... WTF? Meanwhile, the Jets will have lots of defaults. Will be interesting.

Giants did not do financing and won a superbowl.

No I dont have link to psl thing I heard it from a friend. I have to see who told him

My bigger question is the NY Jets obviously dont have a NY or NJ banking license. As a non bank lending money and charging interest I wonder how enforceable that contract is.

I paid off my PSL so I dont care but anyone on 15 year plan at 8% they dont have much skin in game and financing a losing investment at 8% is crazy.

Bottom line Jets overcharged for 90% of seats. I am still happy as I am in the 10% that got a good value seat. If not I would have not paid off PSL so quick as now my options are limited.

I personally know a few people who bought PSLs and used the grandpa or grandmas name. No charge to transfer between family members and good luck chasing down old folk for money and in contract it states upon death of PSL holder any remaining balance dies too.

We all should have pick names from local nursing home
