    Sounds like ticketmaster protecting their own price gouging touts, seat waves profits.

    It's a great way to stop touting, if combined with availability of refunds. It effectively stops touting. If you buy a ticket, you have to attend. If you're not able to attend, you return your ticket and get a refund.

    The Seat Wave thing is another thing all together.

    well i have had nothing but good expereince of pay pal as a buyer over many years.

    Could not agree more. I have been using paypal since 2002 as a buyer and seller and have not once had an issue.
    I must have thousand transactions at this stage.
    Yeah, their fees could be lower, but it's a great service.

    All they are doing is monopolising ticket touting. If its OK for big business to sell tickets at inflated prices what's wrong with Joe Soap doing the same. We are not talking about food or medicines here concert tickets are a luxury item.

    It's a good start.

    Often if not always events that require a card for entry are not allowed onto seatwave.
