All I can say is if I end up losing $10.00 to the wholesale charge, plus an additional $5.00 to him for his "service fee" (Which is truly a service) and a little bit for shipping. I am still doing almost as good as I did last week buying through "legitimate" channels, plus I get to choose my exact seat!!!
Ex/ Ticketmaster fees for Phoenix tickets. I bought 12 tickets X's $8.00 "Convenience Charge" + $2.00 processing fee + $14.35 for shipping (X's two because they will only sell 6 tickets per transaction) that is a total of that was just shy of $150.00 in fees or roughly $12.50 per ticket in charges.
I'll pay NYCPort just to keep from helping Ticketmaster expand their stranglehold on the ticket buying consumer.

Thanks.

I just did some quick math. While people have had to pay more than face value, in some cases much more, the savings is $2000 from what the websites wanted. Not pating myself on the back here
just wanted to let you guys know it's working! Yeah us.

I am not sure as to why I am being named in this episode. I would very much like to see Mr. Jimmy Buffett in a nice tropical venue such as Tulsa, Kansas, St. Louis, Missouri or even Phoenix, Arizona next to the ocean...I don't even know Mr. Port to accuse me of this. I think I will report such to the internet moderator. Makes me upset.

Re: I can help you get hard to find tix...Well, sort of.
But they are talking in the past tense, "Phinster was shadier", perhaps indicating that they no longer think you are shadier..... ?
