Never pay for tickets anywhere except at the Box Office of the event.
Even online gets you shitty seats.
And yeah, there are plenty of people scamming if you're not careful.
I remember before I moved here, I bought 4 tickets to the Beatles Love Show online and had them delivered to my hotel room at The Palms.
I paid a little over $1,000 for those tickets.
Now that I live here, I realize I can just go to The Mirage Box Office and buy them myself for $60 each! Even cheaper if I show a local ID.
So just remember...if you are going to see a show in Vegas, wait until you get here and go to the venue ahead of time and buy tickets. If the show is that evening...it MIGHT be sold out. But you can usually get tickets if you go to the box office around noon.
I found out the hard way that buying tickets online gets you the shitty seats here.
I paid a grand each for tickets to the Lesnar/Carwin fight at The MGM Grand. Bought them online through the link at MGM.
Got to the venue and found my $1,000 seats were a football field away. So I ran down to the MGM Box Office and explained myself. They said "yes" they could move me up. But once I showed them my tickets, they told me "No" because they weren't purchased directly from the Box Office. They were through ticketmaster and there was nothing they could do.
Boy was I pissed!
