Vanisleryan Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Haven’t bought tickets online in a while, where’s the best place to buy and not get scammed? There are more than a few options that pop up online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Aladeen Posted March 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 3, 2020 You are gonna get scammed no matter where you buy your concert tickets it’s only a matter of by how much. Service fees, processing fees, pickup fees, transfer fees... all scams but I guess if you go through a legitimate scammer like ticketmaster or stubhub you will get your marked up tickets in the end. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Barzal Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Your best bet in the future is if you know an artist is coming to town in advance is to scout out when pre-sale tickets via the off the official retailer. I use an app called BandsInTown to know when my favourite bands have local concerts announced. If you look up "Band X" + "Vancouver" on facebook there'll usually be an event page up if they're even remotely popular. That'll usually have a link to the official seller + pre-sale codes. Otherwise, honestly buying tickets off stubhub the day of the concert if you have the patience. That's when the scalpers get semi-desperate. Like Aladeen said though, if tickets have already been put on sale you're gonna get &^@#ed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't work out too well with major shows or smaller gigs that are in high demand. Things like Roger Waters, Elton John, Rage Against the Machine or really good gigs at the Commodore will probably stay high right up until the band hits the stage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
