[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. We have sold tickets on craigslist but just when another couple couldn't make it and we met in the theater lobby and made the exchange.  So I am not against CL.

I asked the seller of the tickets I am interested in how I would know if the tickets were legit or not and he said they were etickets and that I could pick them up at his house so I would know where to go if there was a problem (but he assured he there wouldn't be).  Makes me nervous to pick them up at the house and not at the theatre or a public place. [/quote]

I wouldn't be okay with that.  (1) lack of public place and (2) when I sold etickets on CL, I forwarded & deleted the email in front of the purchaser.  That way they had the email and they had the assurance that I couldn't re-print the tickets and sell them to someone else.

Hard tickets are best but you still need to make sure they did not make the barcode visible when selling.  Scammers can copy and re-print the tickets if they can see the barcode.

I also think that the price is too good to be true - I would only expect a price that good if there were hours left till show time.[/quote]
