Overall everything went well with purchasing and receiving the tickets. I received the tickets in my email 4 days before the show. I was worried about when I would get the tickets, then once I got them I was worried they were not going to scan. 😣 so the 1.5hrs drive to arena, finding parking, walking, and then standing in line to scan tickets I was only 70% confident that we were actually getting in. BUT we made it!

These scalpers didn't even mention they were reselling tickets until after the payment, meaning I payed too much and had an unwanted risk of not getting the tickets that I never would have paid extra to have to worry about. Too much money and too much stress. Will not be buying from these people again.

Hello Andrew,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback.
TicketSmarter is a legitimate ticket resale marketplace with tickets listed by third-party sellers. Similar to other ticket resale marketplaces, third-party sellers are responsible for setting the prices of their ticket inventory on the marketplace, and tickets may be above or below face value. This information is highlighted on our landing page as well as during the checkout process for our customers to see before completing their purchase.
Additionally, we have a 100% Guarantee (https://www.ticketsmarter.com/legit-guarantee) that applies to all tickets that are purchased on our marketplace.

Easy to navigate
Easy to navigate. Quick and easy process to buy a ticket. The most important factor being lower service charge, making it cheaper than other fancy portals. I'm a repeat buyer. Highly recommended.
Excellent concert! Expected it to last only 2 hours and it went 3! Easy booking and receipt of tickets. Would have liked to have been able to buy parking in advance too???

I honestly thought I was buying my tickets from Ticketmaster. I purchased them during the presale, only to realize later that I had paid significantly more than the Ticketmaster price. The seats also turned out to be disappointing, although that may have been my own mistake unless I was misled without realizing it. Either way, the experience left me feeling frustrated, and I won't be buying tickets from this site again.

The process of purchasing the tickets was easy. The only thing that bothered me was the similarity in name to ticketmaster, which is where I thought I was buying them from. It caused me to question the tickets being real once I noticed. All turned out well and we went to the show. it just made me nervous and i spent time trying to find a number and calling to try and verify the transaction was real.

I never received my tickets
I never received my tickets. Was told to go to a bogus website to download them. Use any other service besides this one
