Honestly, I'm not really that surprised. Ticketmaster has been shady for decades.

The entire industry is rotten (I know it pretty well). It's also an incredibly easy target (target? may be the wrong word) for money laundering.

What is the best ticket broker to use?

I look here and there at Stubhub and Tickets For Less. I like the Tickets For Less being free of fees, but Stubhub has the better variety it seems.

Stub hub has always worked well for me.

With the exception of StubHub, all of the common reseller sites run off the same back-end (as mentioned, I know way more about this stuff than I ever wanted to). I use something called TicketLite, because there's a huge Southwest RapidRewards point bonus (currently 7x). You go drop $500 or something on tickets and that ends up being a meaningful amount.

Also - I would highly recommend having browser cookies enabled and getting to the end of a transaction (on any of the sites), after you've given an email address, and then closing the window before completing. More often than not, you'll get an email pretty quickly offering some discount.

I like them as well, but hate paying the pretty high fees.

I am seeing the last few posts and I laugh. I have had MAJOR problems with Stubhub. I try not to use Stubhub - unless I don't have other options with comparable prices and seats.
That being said, I had a good experience with Stubhub on Wednesday - and was pleasantly surprised.

Anyways, Yep, Ticketmaster still sucks!!!!

My response....

Hi, thanks for getting back to me!
My request is for the College Football Playoff National Championship game on January 9th 2023 at 4:30pm Pacific time.
I went on-line to purchase a ticket in section C116 Row 8 Seat 17. Unfortunately it does not let me choose a particular/specific seat.
Is there a way for me to purchase a particular/specific seat number than I want?
Please let me know. Thank you!

(16:48:39) Keith Q: Hello,

Upon checking the event venue to review the seats I see that a lot of sections have been running out of seats. We suggest you to select for a different seats.



My response....

I can only assume you’re either kidding with that response or you simply don’t care about me as a customer.
Either way, I’ll be respectful and say - thanks anyways and have a good rest of your day.

You told his ass Gutman!
Fuck Keith Q!
