Hey, I'm looking to buy some tickets for a concert, but all the tickets are "sold out" and I have to buy from a ticket reseller. I'm not entirely sure how legitimate some of them are (I've heard of some places selling fake or counterfeit tickets). Does anyone know of one which is particularly reputable? So far I'm looking at

StubHub, ticket liquidator, ticket spot and coast to coast tickets.

Are any of those good, or does anyone have other recommendations?

I'd go with Stub Hub or another major in the secondary market (ie Barry's, Tickets Now, etc). I do know that Stub Hub is very serious about both buyers and sellers being legit, therefore they will refund the buyer if the tickets are bogus (and penalize the seller). Check the policies before you buy, no matter where. PM me if you have questions.

Of course, that being said, last summer I got a ticket via Craigslist. I was nervous the guy wasn't legit but it turned out his buddy bailed and since it was the day of event, he was desperate and I was able to negotiate the price down. Great seat too! YMMV.
