I'm going to a big music festival next summer, but it's completely sold out. Has anyone here tried getting passes from resale sites or local groups? Any tips on ensuring they're legit?
I used a few different online marketplaces. Verifying ticket barcodes through the event's official app and comparing prices helped me avoid fake listings and find a decent deal.
Before settling on a purchase, I researched various resale sites and read countless user discussions on festival forums. Some platforms displayed detailed seller histories, which helped me feel safer about the authenticity of listings. Among them, I repeatedly encountered references to tickpick (https://tickpick.pissedconsumer.com/review.html), along with a handful of other sites that specialized in secure transactions and transparent pricing. To avoid overpaying, I waited until closer to the festival date, monitored price trends, and compared different vendors' fee structures.
