Frequently Asked Questions...

Question: Why should I buy from a Ticket Broker?
Answer: It is sometimes
difficult to purchase good seats when they go on sale to the public.
Many have become frustrated with unsuccessful attempts on the phone
or dealing with the long lines of fans trying to get the best seats.
Many fans don't even know that the tickets have gone on sale until
it is too late. It is for these reasons that the need for ticket
brokers has grown. Ticket brokers buy and sell tickets on the open
market.
A Ticket Broker can offer:
? Personalized service
? You can choose your seat location
? You can see on a map where your seat will be
? First 10 rows are usually available
? Delivery to your home or office
? No more waiting in line just to be disappointed
? Major credit cards are accepted
? Nationwide availability
? No hidden charges
? Tickets to "sold out" shows are still available

Question: Why are the tickets above face value?
Answer: Tickets are being
sold at "Market Price". This means that the ticket brokers are also
buying them at well above face value. If someone is selling their
tickets to a major event, they generally want to sell them for what
they are worth. The majority of the price of the ticket is usually
the cost for obtaining them. Then there are general business
expenses added to the cost of the tickets.

Question: Who decides what price the tickets are sold
for?
Answer: All ticket prices are
based upon the current market value, which is influenced by supply
and demand. Therefore, we are constantly updating our ticket prices
to accurately reflect the current market value. Our prices are
subject to change at any time and without notice.

Question: Why are prices sometimes different for seats in
the same or comparable areas?
Answer: Since the main factor
influencing the sale price of each ticket is our cost to obtain
them, the listing price may be considerably higher for a particular
pair of tickets if we paid more to get them. Much like the stock
market influences stockbrokers, the ticket market influences the
buying and selling prices for ticket brokers. Better seats can be
more expensive to obtain, and when the supply of tickets is high the
prices will decline. For some events prices can change constantly.

Question: How do we know that the tickets are genuine
tickets?
Answer: By purchasing from a
Licensed Ticket Broker you can be assured that we have taken the
necessary precautions to guarantee that they are genuine. We verify
all of our sources for tickets and only buy from those that are
reliable.

Question: Isn't it true that
if it was not for all the ticket brokers that buy the tickets that
there would be plenty of seats for the fans?
Answer: No. Ticket brokers
generally have a very small percentage of seats to any event and it
does not affect availability at all. Most shows that are sold out
would not even come close to having enough seats for all the fans
wanting to attend.

Question: Don't ticket brokers purchase large blocks of tickets that are never offered to the public?
Answer: No. Most performers and sports teams assure that this does not happen. Promoters make sure that tickets aren't sold in advance and impose limits when tickets go on sale to ensure that one person can not buy a large block of inventory.

Question: Can I get tickets for
events not listed on your website?

Request for Ticket Information form or send an email, we will try to
find the tickets you need. We are able to get pricing information on
most major events.

Question: Will my tickets be
shipped to me the same day I order them?
Answer: Tickets are sent as
soon as they are physically available. That means we will ship your
tickets to you (via the shipping method you selected) immediately
after we receive them in our office. Most tickets are shipped within
a few days of the date they were ordered. Some tickets, particularly
those ordered for major events, take considerable time before we
receive them. Often we do not receive them until the week of the
event. However, your tickets are guaranteed after an order is
officially confirmed and you will receive them prior to your event.

Question: Can I have my tickets
shipped to an address different than the address on my credit card?
Answer: Yes, but only under
certain conditions. In those situations, we have to get a faxed
permission form from the cardholder that includes a photocopy of the
cardholder?s driver's license and credit card.

Question: Can I cancel for any
reason after I place an order?

final and there are no cancellations or exchanges.

Question: Will I get a refund if
my event cancels?
Answer: If an event
completely cancels and is not rescheduled, then you will receive a
complete refund (less original shipping charges) if the original
tickets are returned to our office within 10 days of the scheduled
event date. However, if part of an event cancels, there are no
refunds issued. We are not liable for refunds for the following
circumstances that are beyond our control: event postponement,
rescheduling or time changes due to weather, nature, construction,
or any other abnormal conditions or developments.
