How do I see concert tickets?

11 replies

ToAutismOrNotToAutismThatIsTheQuestion · 21/04/2025 09:49

I've got 2 Lucy Dacus tickets (for Manchester - I also bought London as I thought I could get the Manchester ones refunded.)

I tried listing them on Manchesters own weird resell thing but I'd like to list them on something mainstream as it's a sold out concert and I'm gutted I screwed up.

I'm so new to this (for my daughter - I never did concerts!!)

Is there a best mainstream site to sell on?

What should I be aware of - I don't want to be scammed and I'm aware I'm clueless here.

I've been emailed the tickets by the organiser and checked it's okay to resell. I think I just literally email these tickets!

Arg title should say SELL not See!!

I've googled and found

Stubhub
Twickets
Viagogo

Any thoughts?

Which site did you buy them from, can they resell for you.id try ticketmaster, stubhub and seat geek. Don't use viagogo.

I have bought and sold on twickets, its a seller to seller site so seems the most genuine

I bought from Ticketline and they don't do reselling but said to sell on "fanticks" but I don't think anyone uses that so I've just pulled them off.

I'm a bit worried now that she's niche and I've ended up paying for 2seta of tickets (lesson learnt...)

I can try Twickets. They don't have any at the moment for Manchester so fingers crossed. Viagogo does but will avoid.

They're all just names to me. I feel so old 😬

Have you tried returning them or asking for a refund from ticket line, their website says no reselling so not sure why they suggest fanticks. There are always touts in the queus at venues if you want to go along on the evening.

We're nowhere near Manchester so we aren't going to go.

I initially contacted Ticketline and they sent this.

"Thanks for getting in touch and I am sorry to hear of this issue.

Tickets purchased are non-refundable/exchangeable unless the event is cancelled or postponed.

If you are unable to attend, you can pass on the tickets via your own means or use the resale platform Fanticks.
https://www.fanticks.com "

So that's why I tried them first.

I've taken them off there and just gone through Twickets and it was actually quite easy. They have all the event details on there and you send them the pdf/PayPal details and they check it.

I did email Ticketline this morning to check I'm allowed to resell elsewhere! I really feel out of my depth!

I just hope someone buys them! I so got caught up in buying when they were released for her and thought I could just return them!

If it's sold out then generally you will sell. You may have to wait until nearer the date and/or accept offers. With twickets the money is paid via PayPal and you release the tickets to the buyer if you have them. Sometimes tickets aren't released until nearer the date.

Thankyou 😊.

They've sent me the eticket (mine originally were paper not sure if I ticked that or it was default but they were going to be sent later so I asked for ticket!)

Oh wow!! Got a text to say they sold alongside the email it listed. They sold in 3minutes.

All so straightforward! And I was so anxious about it!

Twickets are really good - they do it all so I uploaded the ticket to them at the start and link PayPal and I just got a text and the money in my paypal.

PayPal charge a percentage and Twickets charged but the Twickets charge was paid by the buyer.
