I got cc entry only for Vancouver floor ticket and it was clearly stated it was cc only with no printing option or even a pic of the ticket.
300 section for Toronto and already printed the ticket. No mention of cc entry at all on the Toronto ticket that I'm selling.

very happy that they did this for certain sections on this tour

credit card entry for certain up close sections is nothing new. lots of artists have been doing it. bruce has been doing it for over 7 years.

Was this a platinum seat, or regular face value?
Some sections have the cc entry even if you buy them through the normal queue (not platinum)

ignore. sorry buddy...
Anyone need two for Winnipeg? I have a pair in row 19 on the floor I'll sell for face value, $313.50. Electronic tickets, can do the email/PayPal thing or meet up in Winnipeg.
First, it's an admirable attempt to have the scalpers cut out, but unfortunately, the actual number of Hip fans that are on fan boards is a very small percentage. As a result, there will be tons of regular fans still buying through the stubhubs of the world....

Also, the scalpers have figured out the work around on paperless tickets. The purchaser gives the buyer their credit card (which has already by then been cancelled by then). I've NEVER been asked for ID other than the credit card when I've bought them (through normal TM means, I don't buy scalped tix). Simply not enough staff or confirmation machines available at the venue to ask for picture ID, especially when they scan the card and it confirms the tickets are in the system for that card.
Can we please unsticky this post. No one likes scalpers but the main idea in this post is false. I think its more important that people know how to safely deal with these ticket resale sites than it its to tell them everything out there is false.
Another thing to keep in mind with resold tickets is, how will you get a refund if the show is cancelled? The lead singer has brain cancer...it's pretty amazing he's touring at all.

stubhub will refund your money no problem. If you by from some random person, you're screwed.
Hi, I'm new here! Had never heard of this site before and it is spectacular. Anyway, do you guys think I have a pretty good chance to get tickets from an actual ticketmaster outlet in the mall tomorrow? A lot of people on the facebook fanpage have been saying that I'll have no chance since they'll all get sucked up by scalpers again, but the people on this forum seem to have a lot more info so could someone help me out please?

Your chances are slim either way but I would stick with the digital option unless your are camping out at that outlet retail right now.

I'd steer clear of the mall outlets. They dont seem to have any better odds than anywhere else and they wont keep checking for you. Your best bet is to be online right at 958am and refresh until the page goes live. Then keep trying until for 45 min or so. You need to be persistent and not give up right away.
Trying to get ticket for the London show through the Budweiser Gardens site. I've been in the online queue for a half-hour. Beginning to think I'm S.O.L. Sad
