Default is there a place..?

Is there a place / forum where fans can sell un-used / un-wanted tickets to other fans in an attempt to avoid the high prices from scalpers? JBJ fans understand each others love for the music and band, and I know if I had an extra set of tickets I needed to sell I would much rather them go to another deserving fan who is in desperate need of a rock concert, then a scalper.

Scarlett Mist is such a site and it covers all bands, not just Bon Jovi.

and no, ticket prices may be more then they used to be, but are still no where near the price of scalpers compared to face value :-/

thanks for the email tigrs, I checked it out, but didnt see anything. I guess I will just keep checking e-bay, craigslist, and this site even to see if I can snag an extra pair or two for the vegas show. Thanks for your help everyone.

Check stubhub also, especially if you don't mind waiting a day or two right before the concert.

I checked last night and found someone selling floor sets in section 5 for $125 for tonight's concert at MSG. As the time gets closer to the concert, people on stubhub want to get rid of their tix and you might end up getting a great deal.

Good luck

aljo, you'd suggest waiting until closer to showtime? Im debating if thats a good idea or not, its usually hit or miss, but im traveling from phoenix, to vegas to see the show, and im gonna need four seats (which dont have to be together, just in sets of 2).. Im taking my mother because shes done everything in the world for me and is a huge JBJ fan..but sounds like based on your previous experience, waiting until closer to show time may be a better idea.
