I almost only buy tix in the parking lot just before the show and I have NEVER once not gotten killer seats for a little over or sometimes even below face value. Believe me, there are tons of folks who go to shows and bought a lot of tix, but a few people in their group couldn't make it at the last minute. The worst I ever did was in July for a Rush concert, where I missed the first two songs, but paid under face value for seats right in front of the soundboard. I'm doing the same thing for Van Halen in Philly tomorrow night. Oh, last Sat. I saw Rush in Toronto. Since it was my bachelor party and big roadtrip, my buddies had bought tix well in advance and we ended up having an extra. They sold it for exactly what they had paid for it and did so on the way into the arena. I hate giving a dime to Ticketraper.
