Wanted something nice
Excellent help, easy. Thanks
I recently bought tickets to a concert. I did not realize that I could get them at face value on the concert site website. SeatGeek claims that they have the best deals and I like the idea of consolidating all of my ticket purchases on one site. Their advertising is false however, as they are legalized scalpers even when less expensive tickets are available. I find this despicable!

So far so good, let's hope the item ordered is good quality and undamaged in shipping.
Hi Leila,
We're sorry to hear that you felt misled by our site and totally understand why you'd be upset to discover that the tickets were still available through the box office.
Most ticket listings that we aggregate are from the secondary market and are being resold at market value, which could be above or below face value. When a show is sold out, the secondary market can be a great thing, but if it hasn't sold out yet, it is often best to buy from the box office. We include a link to the official box office on every event page for this very reason. Apologies for the confusion.
