If you want to buy tickets to a concert, try looking at the venue website (or calling the venue ticket office) first for an initial price check so you know when someone else is trying to rip you off.

Second-party tickets could get you good deals. On the other hand, it could be an attempt to completely rip you off. Take, for instance, the upcoming Coheed & Cambria / Porcupine Tree concert at Minglewood Hall in Memphis. My friend, who heard about it and whose girlfriend is a huge C&C fan, asked me if I wanted to go and then quoted me a price of $80. I'd already been to the Minglewood website and knew their advanced ticket prices were $30, so I tell him so. Both of them are now flabbergasted.

Additionally, I googled "tickets coheed and cambria minglewood hall" and found site after site after site offering The Best C&C Tickets at $80 and $110. When I hit the third of these sites, I started reading them.

This is just blatant. The rest of the atrocious spelling and grammatical stuff I can attribute to people being stupid, but this isn't even a consistent set of typos! It takes effort to misspell "hall" seven different ways.

Just because it's on the internet doesn't mean it's always telling you the truth.
