[QUOTE="Merkuri, post: 4465389, member: 41321"] ...and they're not grandma-friendly. My boyfriend and I only live a few miles from the Patriot's stadium, and we might be moving in the next year, so we figured we'd buy tickets to a game before we move, since it seems silly to have lived here so long and not have gone to a single game. So I go online and spend about $200 on a couple of tickets to see the Pats play the Dolphins. We realize almost immediately that it's Pats AT Dolphins... we bought tickets to a game in Florida by mistake. I look online to see how we go about undoing this transaction, since it happened only a few minutes ago and the tickets haven't even been printed yet, and what I find basically says, "You're screwed. Once you hit 'submit' the tickets are yours and there's no way in heck we're refunding your money. If you don't want them, sell them on our ticket exchange." I put the tickets up for sale and they sell right away, but of course I don't get all of my money back. Instead of being out $200 I'm out $40, which isn't as bad, but it still isn't good. And not counting the money from the actual tickets, TicketMaster made $60 from nothing in this whole fiasco. $20 "convenience fee" from me for buying the tickets in the first place (though since I can ONLY buy them from TicketMaster I don't see how this is any more convenient than anything else I could do), $20 conveninence fee from the guy who bought them from me, and another $20 from me as a fee to sell the tickets. :rant: So, anyone else have similar experiences with them?
