Oh, I didn't realize that they were owned by Ebay.
I use Stubhub because it's easier to get a single ticket from them than the other brokers and when tickets cost a certain amount of money, it's hard to get people to want to go with you.
I agree with the ethical position against scalpers. But they manage to get all the tickets so the fans don't have a chance. Sometimes if I want to see a show, it's my only option. I know it's a chicken/egg conundrum. If enough fans stopped using them they will have to change their practices, but I don't think enough people can take a moral stand to put a dent in their conduct, so I give in to it. I feed the crime.
Although with Mick's VIP packages in the mix, I managed to get tickets for 5 shows without resorting to scalpers, so I've done a lot better than I have in the past.
