This is Ticketmaster's answer to StubHub, and any other scalping sites. I never used it but I have seen prices to be higher prices than what you get through the Ticketmaster regular site.

Their service fee is almost 200.00 a ticket. Most of the scalper sites have exactly the same seats. Got to shop around. Be careful some of the sites don't add the fee til you committed to buying.

Not sure what show you're looking for, but this year is a major buyer's market in the midwest... front row center from the box office a half hour before the gates opened... 8th row center half price from someone in Chicago half hour before show time. May be better off just going to the lot and trying your luck. Keep in mind, this is merely my opinion, and I obviously can't guarantee you score.

But good luck!

That I do! (But to clarify, chibears got the half price 8th row center, not me. Just throwing out examples of what's happenin' out there!)

Tickets Now is another scalp site. I've used it for sporting events..No real diff. from stub hub or others..Convenience fees are ridiculously high though.

I used them for the Atlanta show this year. Hmmm, how should I put this . . . THEY s***! To make a long story short, they guarantee you receive your ticket by the day of the show. My ticket should have been delivered no later than the day before the show. NOT! After several phone calls and me screaming and crying to their phone attendants, I got my ticket the morning of the concert. Then, you have to wonder if the ticket will be any good, after they had such crappy service! I WAS SO STRESSED! Use someone else.
