If You Buy a Concert Ticket and It Gets A Discounted Price Later On
 
Do early buyers get to somewhat of a partial refund? Or jokes on them?

Not really a joke, really? I don't get why you would be upset. A store gets too much of a product and can't sell it? They put it on sale. Just because it's cheaper than when you bought it a month earlier doesn't mean you should get money back.

Oh ok. Just curious. And did this ever happen to Bon Jovi concerts?

Happens all the time. From what I understand, it happens especially in the UK.

But, at a store, if its within 30 days, you can go collect the difference if the item you purchased gets put on sale. I don't think it applies to concert tickets. It's more of a gamble. Pay for your guaranteed seat while it's available I'd say. Unless your venue doesn't normally sell out. Then you've got situation on your hands. Same thing happens to me every show lol

How much did they slash the Bon Jovi tickets for?

Well I bought tickets once as soon as they went on sale and literally hours later they were half as expensive. I called them up and got a partial refund but I don't think that's exactly a common case.

Yep. More often lately. I bought an £85 ticket for an O2 show which was equivalent to the ones they were knocking out for a fiver on the day before.
You take your chances now, you can guarantee the type of ticket you want and pay face value or risk waiting it out and pick something up nearer the time. Only the very best tickets will be more expensive on the secondary market.

Its much like having a bet in the morning on a horse at 5/1. You take the odds at the time and if it wins at 10/1, thats your loss

I bought a ticket for Bon Jovi's penultimate gig at The O2. Then, they were offering 2For1 Tickets.

Just my luck I guess. Mind you, I managed to get 2 for the price of 1 on the Final Show :)
