It was Ok. Download of tickets wasn't available until a few days before concert even though you already had may money. Was unable to down load to Apple iPhone wallet.

Make sure you check the venues own website first! I thought that's where I was at, ended up costing me twice as much. Pay attention!

“Claiming” my tickets was confusing to me. I would prefer the ability to save my event tickets in my apple wallet.

Your site is a scam

Your site is a scam. Your logo looks like the Tower Theatre but your prices are twice the price. I was not able to cancel 4 hours after my purchase and now I have a $51 ticket that I don't want and can't sell because tickets from the venue are only $36. I would love to sue you, but I will spread the word on social media NOT to use your site.

Hi, Deborrah. We hear your frustration regarding your order. Event Tickets Center is a secondary marketplace where prices are set by ticket brokers and reflect market demand. We have disclaimers regarding this at the top of every page of our site.

All sales are final once a purchase is made. To protect our customers, we back purchases with a 100% Buyer Guarantee to ensure tickets are valid for entry. Please reach out to our team at customersupport@eventticketscenter.com so we can look into your order details.

Hi, Gail. All purchases require multiple actions be performed by users (including, but not limited to, event selection, entering payment details and finalizing the transaction), which can be stopped at any time for any reason. There is no way for our website to place an order on its own.

Technology made everything worse

Finding tickets was easy. I do not know what kind of racket goes on after that. Several emails about “acquiring tickets” “transferring tickets” “available tickets” - just noise. I long for the ease of a ticket booth. “Here’s my money” “Thanks, here are your tickets”. This modern ticket purchasing experience is 100% everything wrong with tech. Just an awful user experience

Hi, Cindy. It is understandable that you miss the simplicity of a physical ticket booth. The digital transfer process involves several steps, and we hear how the automated updates can feel like noise when you want your tickets immediately.

As a resale marketplace, we facilitate transfers from ticket brokers. Many venues, artists, and primary ticketing platforms now implement delivery delays that prevent tickets from being released until shortly before the show. We do not control these restrictions, which is why your order has an estimated delivery date of May 1, 2026. This date was advertised in the seller's notes to provide transparency regarding the transfer timeline.

Our 100% Buyer Guarantee ensures your tickets will be valid and arrive in time for the event. Since your show is on May 2nd, please reach out to us at customersupport@eventticketscenter.com or (855) 261-6909 if you require further assistance.

Misleading Website- Paid 2–3x More Than Ticketmaster

Update: Thank you for your response.

The issue is not whether a general disclosure exists, but whether it is clear, prominent, and sufficient given the overall presentation of the website.

Your site closely resembles an official ticket vendor in both layout and checkout flow, which can reasonably lead consumers to believe they are purchasing from a primary seller. The disclosure that prices “may be above or below face value” does not adequately communicate that tickets may be listed at significantly inflated prices compared to the official source.

In my case, I was charged $446 per ticket, while the same tickets were available through Ticketmaster for approximately $153 per ticket. This is a substantial difference that was not clearly or transparently presented prior to purchase.

I attempted to cancel shortly after the transaction and was denied.

This matter is currently under review through Affirm, and a complaint has been filed with the Attorney General due to concerns regarding misleading business practices.

I remain open to resolving this matter directly and am requesting a full refund.

I purchased two tickets for a John Legend concert through Event Tickets Center for a total of $977.21.

The website presentation closely resembles an official ticket vendor, and it was not clearly or prominently disclosed that this is a resale marketplace with significantly inflated pricing. Based on the layout and checkout process, I believed I was purchasing from an authorized primary seller.

Immediately after completing my purchase, I discovered that the same tickets were available through Ticketmaster for approximately $153 per ticket, compared to the $446 per ticket I was charged. This is a substantial and material price difference that was not clearly communicated prior to purchase.

Although there is a general statement that prices “may be above face value,” this disclosure is not sufficient given the extent of the markup and the overall presentation of the site.

I attempted to cancel shortly after purchase, but my request was denied under an “all sales final” policy.

I have since filed a dispute through Affirm and submitted a complaint to the Attorney General due to the misleading nature of this transaction.

I would strongly advise others to verify they are purchasing directly from the official ticket provider before using this site.

I am still seeking a full refund and hope the company will resolve this matter promptly.

Hi, Ashli. Event Tickets Center is a resale marketplace, and the tickets listed on our site are owned and priced by ticket brokers. These prices reflect current market demand and can often be above OR below the original face value.

To keep our customers informed, we provide disclosures regarding our marketplace status and pricing at the top of every page, next to the seating charts, and throughout the checkout process. All sales are considered final once an order is confirmed.

Hello Tony, we appreciate you reaching out to share your experience regarding your recent order at Carnegie Hall.

Event Tickets Center is a resale marketplace where ticket brokers list tickets at prices reflecting current market demand. Because of this, the cost can be higher OR lower than the original face value. Regarding your seat location, our records indicate the specific Section and Row (Dress Circle, Row GG) were provided for review and accepted during the checkout process before the purchase was finalized. While individual seat numbers are not disclosed, the section and row are displayed and were delivered as ordered.

If there are any other details you would like us to look into, please contact our team at customersupport@eventticketscenter.com.

This is a price gouging website

This is a price gouging website probably paying google to be the first to pop up. They are not the event ticket holder. Charge double the price with no refunds. What out.

AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS!!!

AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS!!!! Just look at their google reviews and their BBB rating. They hide behind a "all sales are final" policy happy to take your money despite selling tickets at inflated values and no where near what you expected. When called out on it, they make every excuse to screw you. When I had my credit card company fight the charge it took them two months to respond. RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN! I hope they are shut down for the deception they use.

Legalized scalping

Purchase was quick and easy, but later found that the cost on your site was more than double face value. Scalping has been legalized, but I still feel very ripped off.

I purchased tickets for a 4/24/26 event on 4/8/26 and was immediately worried when the expected receipt of tickets would be the day before the event, 4/23/26. It is currently 4/24/26, the day of the event and still haven't received my tickets. In 30 years of purchasing tickets I've never experienced such a system. I will never use this service again.

Rip off

This was my first time using Eventtickets. I have not bought any tickets to anything for some time. I should have checked directly with the venue or otherwise investigated pricing I was ripped off. I bought two tickets each for $135, but the ticket price didn’t show, only the total, over $700. Once I received the tickets I saw the abuse. Fooled me once. Never again.

Hi, Laura.

As a resale marketplace, prices are set by ticket brokers and reflect market demand, which often results in costs above OR below the original venue price. We use all-in pricing to show the full total including fees upfront so the final cost is clear before you buy. Our platform includes a 100% Buyer Guarantee to ensure your tickets are authentic and delivered on time.

DO NOT BUY TICKETS FROM THIS WEBSITE!!!!! They wait last minute to see if prices drop and try and purchase a ticket 99% of the time it doesn’t work. I bought 400$ worth of tickets in November for a concert in April, I didn’t hear anything so I called them on the morning of the concert. They said everything was in order and I would receive the tickets at 3:30pm. 4hrs before the concert they refunded my tickets without even contacting me. It ended up costing me 800$ from travel cost and hotel because they told me my tickets would be ready. The service is awful and refunds will be less than you pay! NEVER use this company stick to well established business especially if your in Canada going to a Canadian concert!

Hi, Casey. As a resale marketplace, we facilitate sales from independent sellers. Records indicate your refund was processed in the original currency of the sale, and variations in the final amount are due to your bank's exchange rates on the date the refund was issued. To address the trouble, our team previously extended an offer for an additional courtesy voucher on top of the refund.

If you have questions regarding your refund or the voucher, please reach out to us at customersupport@eventticketscenter.com.

Hi, Lorena.

Ticket sellers often choose not to publicly display seat numbers for several important reasons. One key consideration is the protection of their privacy, particularly if they are season ticket holders or individuals associated with the event. Additionally, this practice helps prevent the potential issue of double-booking, where multiple customers inadvertently purchase the same seats simultaneously.

If you have any further questions or if there's anything else we can assist you with, please feel free to reach out at customersupport@eventticketscenter.com. We're here to address any concerns you may have.

Ordered the tickets in Nov found out 5 hours before event they could not fill the ticket order . After 7 emails since purchase and 2 hours on the phone today being assured I would have the tickets in time they then let me know they did not have the tickets and could not find replacements for the show ( The OutSiders ) . After being told, then they informed me i could not speak to a manager or supervisor. Now the show is sold out . They are supposedly going to give a refund but it could take up to 7 days so we will see . This company has completely ruined my daughters birthday present. I would not recommend this company at all

I still don't know where my tickets are. There's no link in the confirmation to download them and no apparent way to transfer them to my wallet. The event is in August and I have a guest traveling in to attend with me. I'd prefer more clarity, ease of use and transparency in the purchase process.

We hear your concerns about wanting clarity on your ticket delivery as you coordinate travel for your guest. Please email our support team at customersupport@eventticketscenter.com for an update on your order.

As a resale marketplace, delivery timing depends on when the original source releases tickets to the seller, and on the various regulation each transfer platform/artist has on user-to-user transfers. This means tickets are not always available for download right away. We state the estimated delivery date on every listing. Our platform and 100% Buyer Guarantee are designed to provide a secure environment for fans to buy and sell tickets, ensuring you receive valid tickets in time for the event.
