I purchased tickets for the first time from ticketmaster. I just wanna know about the whole process of ticketmaster, For some reason i feel like maybe its a scam..lol..Im used to purchasing tickets from an actual box office by going in.
Ticketmaster is absolutely a legit company. I've unfortunatley had to purchase tickets from Ticketmaster for countless concerts throughout my life. The fees are flat out ridiculous though. "Conveince" fees, "Order Processing" fees....it's all garbage. They simply rape you for money. Ticketmaster was one of the original ticket brokers before there were a million of them & they became so popular. Ticketmaster basically has rights to large percentages of tickets, therefore only allowing the band/team to sell a limited number of tickets directly to fans. They paved the way for Stub Hub etc.
