[QUOTE="stevelabny, post: 4466924, member: 9298"] I just did this on Cicrvs Maximvs and I'll do it here too. You made a mistake. Why the heck are you blaming them? They completed their part of the transaction. Sure, it would be nice if they helped you out and fixed your mistake, but they're under no obligation to do so. Almost every ticket to a sporting event, concert, or even movie that I can think of is non-refundable. Why would this be different? Plus... 1> The Patriots went 16-0 last year, and have won multiple Super Bowls in the last 10 years. In a city that lives and dies with its sports teams. Why would they have ANY tickets available? 2> Tom Brady is out for the season. That means plenty of the fairweather fans now have tickets they'll be trying to unload. Why not try to get a deal on one of those instead of buying from Ticket Master? Have you heard of Craigslist or Ebay? 3> Did you read the website before placing an order?
