If you had a gun, this wouldn't happen.

problem is that none of the tickets are being sent to their owners for a month or two. the tickets were bought from the venue, but they mail the actual wristbands. unique situation with the big festivals.

so the idea is to "buy them" now, but i dont want to pay full and never see any tickets. and the seller obviously doesnt want to send tickets and never see money.
soo....the paypal thing? half up front half upon wristband delivery? any special things to do on paypal?

Buy them from a big black guy hanging out in front of the venue. That's always how I've bought scalped tickets.

You mean he punched you until you gave him money and then he gave you a napkin to clean up the blood?
