Has anyone used the ticketmaster resale function for e-tickets?

I have sold tickets on there and it was fine. You have to wait until someone buys your tickets to get the money back but it all worked fine (I guess you do run the risk of them not selling).
Never bought resale tickets though.

I bought resale tickets recently for a concert, everything went well.

Yes very recently. Very straightforward and money transferred to my account about 10 days after tix were sold.

Interested in this thread?

I've sold there. Was straightforward enough and money in my account quickly after the event. Would definitely use again.

Thanks @ABIIOR @Chocolatetwirl @Gemzee @GoodVibesHere - I’m just curious - do any of you know how the pricing works? 🤔
I had 3 tickets for an event that we can no longer make it to. They’re playing a couple of nights at the venue. All that particular type of ticket for each night that were listed on resale were listed at £103.75 each, so I’m assuming this to be the full price paid plus the fees that ticketmaster add on (it does state when listing that you can only sell for a maximum of what you paid, but that ticketmaster will then advertise them at a higher price to cover their fees).
When I listed tickets it gave me the option to price lower than what I paid for them so I could list for anything up to £89.65 per ticket (tickets were £79 each plus booking fees bringing each to £89.65 each). I listed them for £70 each to try and undercut the other sellers and sell mine quickly as I’d rather get something back than nothing 🤷🏻‍♀️I assumed they add a set fee to each ticket so me pricing mine lower would bring them in under the £103.75 that the others were listed at.
But my tickets also got listed by ticketmaster at £103.75 🤣 so by listing at £70 instead of the £89.65 have I really just opted to give ticketmaster a bigger profit? 🤔🤣

I really hope that makes sense 🤣🤣🙈

I sold mine for the price I paid (minus fees, so ticket was £84.50 x 2 and that's what I got back, no booking fees back).
