I just have this huge fear I pay money and show up and get told my ticket is fake or something.


Edited to add- has anyone bought tickets through craigslist for a show in another state? How'd you handle it? I see some floor seats on Craigslist Chicago but I'm in MI until four days before the show so I'm not totally sure how I'd manage that or if these people would actually want to wait until I was in town, suppose I could wait until I'm in the area myself and see what's available.

Regarding Stubhub- I bought my Rosemont ticket through them (above face value though), and was slightly freaked out when I looked at Ticketmaster and saw that someone had tagged themselves as sitting in the seat I had purchased. I called Stubhub and they said the seller I had bought the ticket from was one of their most trusted sellers and that if there is a problem when I get there to call them (I believe they sometimes have representatives at events as well) and that the replacement seat will be as good if not better than the one I bought. Fingers crossed.

I flat out wouldn't trust Craiglist. A lot of legit sellers on there, but there's no guarantee and it's hard to track people down if they do scam you.
