I was just looking online last night on TicketsNow for concert tix. Even without the extra $$$ they had the best seats for the lowest cost of any of the other ticket outlets I was checking. I am glad I waited to purchase !! I am in for both the $50 and the 5%.
NOTE: The Geico Privileges pages says it is not available for Ohio residents (which I am one), but I signed up anyhow, will see what happens !!
I really don't get what kind of ripoff operation this is. It's basically a legal operation owned by Ticketmaster where tickets are scalped. Ticketmaster gets 15% of the comission and the tickets are being sold for way more than face value, how is this legal? I am also betting Ticketmaster withholds tickets and puts them on this site so they can be sold for more. Why would anyone give money to this site? You are better off getting tickets on eBay or craigslist and not giving more money to such a corrupt company as Ticketmaster.
For example, NJ State law...25% price cap beyond face value. Nine Inch Nails, Atlantic City..face value is $68. Sellers are selling for up to $418 each.
You think Ticketmaster is actually going to regulate and abide by state laws when they are making 15% commission? hah.
Right on the home page of TicketsNow it says "Members of Fat Wallet receive a 5% discount on the purchase of tickets at TicketsNow." I don't see that mentioned here.
Wow, there's like a 400% markup on tickets that are still available on the show I'm looking at. The $50 offer is nice and all, but I'm afraid it can't make up for those kind of prices...

I know it says 24-48 hours, but has anyone received their code yet?
I agree... the prices are quite the ripoff, but I found a concert I want to go to that would be free after this coupon. Still, the markup is 350%. Quite the scam.
this is the same model as stubhub. These are individual sellers (scalpers) setting their own price. Of course they are going to try to get as much as they can for the tix. Like anything else in the world, the $200 ticket that is a rip off to you, is a bargain for someone else. No one is forcing you to buy anything, but in the same respect, it is not up to you to put the value on someone else's property. If a guy has Muppets on Ice tix for $200 that is the price he is willing to sell at. Perhaps his logic is for less than that I will use the tix myself, and that is his right.
The point is the market will set the price. If no one buys at $200 the guy either has to lower the price, use the tix, or eat the tix. It's called the free market and it is the basis for everything you buy. To complain about it just shows that you only love the free market when it benefits you, not someone else.
Doesn't really matter when there are still state laws that govern how much you can markup the facevalue of a ticket that Ticketmaster/ticketsnow isn't abiding by.
