Anyone ever had any issues with this? I am more of a hard ticket person, but it seems like most tickets for sale these days are electronic. Thanks for any input.

  • I've done it in the past with no problems. But its tricky. Will the seller refund you if the show gets canceled?

    you just have to be careful that they don't fraud you and get to the concert earlier and scan their ticket first. stubhub has a guarantee that all tickets are hard so its definitely safer to go with stubhub.

    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    ^^^They could do the same thing with hard tickets.

    The e-tickets are as safe and they just email the link to print the tix.

    Know what's messed up? I recently heard about this happening, and I don't know if I'm the last to know, but if you buy any e-ticket for the nosebleed... but on your computer alter the ticket to say much closer up, all you need to do is scan the original ticket for far away to get in, then show the doctored ticket to the ushers to move you up front! I'm not recommending this at all. It's brilliant, but messed-up.
    ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you. :)
