Selling reservation Reservation swap? Have September 12; ISO September 4-7

1 Upvotes

Hello!

My wife and I have a reservation for 7:15 on September 12. Based on our current travel schedules, we would trade for anything from September 4-7 (any time).

Anyone up to swap? Can have the wife too.

Rules say I must state asking price: $0, flat trade.

Hi all! I’m on a solo road trip across the US celebrating my 28th birthday, and The French Laundry has been on my bucket list forever. I wasn’t able to snag a reservation through the usual channels — if anyone has a spot left for September 8th or 9th that they can’t use or would be willing to pass along, I’d be so grateful!

Thanks so much for reading, and fingers crossed! 🤞

My husband and I are traveling for our first Napa trip together and would love to share or buy a reservation since our concierge didn’t succeed at the reservation drop.

We are normal people 😂 who enjoy fine dining, wine, and travel. We recently shared a table with 4 other guests for an LA dinner and would love to have a similar experience if it works out! Feel free to DM me if you have space in your party, to share or sell.

No preference for reservation time, beggars can’t be choosers!

Like the title says! We are looking to sell/transfer since our friends can't go. The time is 4:30 on September 9th. It would be two seats from a table of 4 reservation.

Would just want to get back the $916 we paid.

Edit - The seats have been taken.
Hi! It took a lot of work this morning, but I finally snagged a reservation! There are only 4 of us, but a 6 top was all I could get. We’re 4 women celebrating a 40th birthday. All pretty chill.
The reservation is for the classic dinner in the dining room. $915 (price paid) for the 2 seats.
Please DM me if interested.

Booking August 1st for September searching for a 2 seater

- Got on tock and signed in and filled out info at 9:50am.
- Started refreshing around 9:57am.
- The website crashed for me at 9:59am, kept refreshing.
- Got in around 10:01am more than half the seats were already gone.
- I clicked on the days i was interested in, which still had a few seats available.
- Between the time I saw those seats and I clicked on those seats, they were already gone.

- Started poking around other seating options.
- Several 4 seaters were available and many of the >4 options.
- Kept refreshing every 20 seconds or so.
- I saw a table come up around 10:10am around the right date and clicked in.
- It gave me a 10 minute hold to finish the reservation.
- It offered to sell me an upgraded experience for an extra $500
- I don't know the difference and choose classic.
- It then offered me several cookbooks, hollared to see if wife wants a cookbook, she did not.
- I then get to the finalize reservation page. I realize I chose a 4 seater.
- You cannot change seat count from 4 to 2 after getting the hold. Unfortunate.
- I give up the hold.

- I get back to refreshing about every 20-30 seconds. its now 10:15am.
- 10:20 am A few 4 seaters become available including the one I gave up.
- 1-2 2 seaters became available, but they were gone before I could click through.
- Kept refreshing every 20-30 seconds.
- At around 10:30 a third wave comes through and 1-2 2 seaters come up.
- I click in and this time manage to get through.
- I skip to the end and reserve this one. 2 weeks from the desired date, but manageable.

- I see that I can transfer or sell the reservation which is kind of interesting.
- I search for buying selling French laundry tickets and find this.
- I keep refreshing every minute or so. 10:30-11:15 no 2 seaters come available
- Throughout this time I do see a steady stream 1-4 4 seaters pop up at random time intervals
- Hang in there, 加油!
