I trust STUB HUB, have bought and sold many a ticket on that site! That being said, I did buy 2 (by accident) for El Rey (I needed 1 for a friend) and they are download only, the email says they will be downloaded to my app (from "the seller") by 12/20 - which is the DAY BEFORE THE CONCERT. This is worrisome. While I believe Stubhub will surely refund me if there's a problem, I don't want my friend (or friends if I find another person to use the other) to not be able to get in at the last minute. I may call Stubhub just to reassure myself and see if there is anything I can do to get them in my app sooner.
I am one of those people who was happy to make flight arrangements and get tickets to see Adam for these one offs (3 of them anyway, no NYC for me) - I have been waiting YEARS for Adam solo again. There is very little in the world that gives me as much pleasure as hearing Adam sing live, and if I can afford it and have the energy, I feel I should "do it while I can" - I work hard and have been thrifty all my life, and deserve this pleasure. When friends and family give me crap about going to so many Adam shows, I ask them how many football or baseball games they've been to, or how many times on this or that cruise or whatever. There is enough pain and sadness in the world, we should all do what makes us the most happy, there I said it! lol
Here is my funny resale story. I booked a trip to New Orleans kind of at the last minute when QAL was there this summer. I had to buy a Stubhub ticket for too much money in not such a great seat but I did. The day of the show (in the afternoon) Ticketmaster released some much better seats for half of what I paid, so I bought one! Then I listed mine that I had purchased from Stubhub back on Stubhub. It had not sold by the time we left for the concert - we were walking from the hotel NEXT DOOR. My friends said I should try to scalp it outside, but I didn't feel comfortable with that. And it's a good thing I didn't, because after the show I discovered that my ticket had sold on stubhub 20 minutes before concert time LOL! And the money was in my account the next day - $170 - which is almost what I paid for the new ticket on TM.
