Looking for Basketball tickets
Sorry if this isn't thread worthy, I looked at the "sticky" threads and didn't see one that seemed appropriate for this post. I'm potentially looking to take my 3 boys to a basketball game after Christmas (it would be a Christmas present), and I am not sure what is the best way to get tickets to a game.
My two main questions are does anyone happen to have 4 tickets they are planning to sell for any upcoming home games after Christmas?
Otherwise where is the best place online to look for tickets? I've used StubHub in the past but it seems like their "fees" have gotten pretty ridiculous last time I checked.
Thanks in advance.

After market is always gonna have xtra fees. I've used seatgeek and they are pretty good.

I expect to pay fees on any secondary market/resale type site. It just seemed like the last time I looked on StubHub, it was a lot higher than when I previously used them so I wasn't sure if there was a better option or that just normal at this point.

Dude, ticket prices are ridiculous. Hell, everything is ridiculous, I always thought I made good money, but evidently I don't make enough where I would pay anything to see a live event. I'm just not doing it.

Directly through Michigan's site is a great way to go, but it depends on the opponent. For example, there are 4 tickets right next to each other for $20 a ticket against Purdue Fort Wayne on the 21st: https://mgoblue.evenue.net/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/SEGetEventList?groupCode=MBSINGLE&linkID=umichse&shopperContext=&caller=&appCode=&RSRC=webbkmticketpagebuynow&RDAT=bkmsingletickets&_gl=1*6rns15*_ga*MTM2NTQ4MDI1OS4xNjM4OTcwNDgy*_ga_LLXBLNKGX6*MTYzODk3MzAzMy4yLjAuMTYzODk3MzAzMy42MA..&_ga=2.185804521.1569963178.1638970482-1365480259.1638970482

Check the TickPick app. Fees are already included in the prices shown so you know what you're paying.

Stubhub is terrible. I find the tickets to be higher priced and the fees are more than the other sites.
Try SeatGeek/VividSeats/etc.

If you'd consider giving them a "pre-Christmas" present, you can have my four tickets to the 12/21 game against Purdue-Fort Wayne. I may also be able to include parking; need to check with my seat neighbor/season ticket partner.
***Update*** I do also have a parking pass.

I'm for sure open to that idea. Can you shoot me an email?

It's a home game at Michigan. At this time of year, tickets are plentiful and comparatively cheap. Your time is worth more than chasing the best deal.
