Las Vegas Show Tickets "Discount Tickets"

Looking for Las Vegas Show Tickets?
So you want to see Celine at Caesar's Palace or Cirque O at the Bellagio but you’ve noticed these events are all sold out. What do you do now? There’s one last chance to get these tickets directly from the box office but more than likely you’re going to have to find you’re tickets on the secondary market. That means buying tickets from a ticket broker or finding an individual with tickets that they need to get rid of.

So what’s this last chance box office business all about? Simple, win big! If you win big enough casinos might even “comp” your tickets. High Rollers get treated well in this city and there’s always a select reserve of premium tickets held for winners like these. If you’re an average Joe and want to buy tickets from the box office, you better plan your trip well in advance and hop on the box office the day these tickets go on sale, which is usually three months in advance. Be sure to rub your rabbit’s foot for extra luck while you’re on hold because the good seats are gone in a flash. If your luck’s not good enough to earn you High Roller status but you still have enough dough in your pockets to pay more for your tickets than what’s printed on the face, you’ll need to find yourself a quality ticket broker or try your luck online.

Reputable ticket brokers such as PlatinumTickets.com have been in the business for years and know how to treat their clients. Their exclusive access to hard to find Vegas event tickets makes them a valuable ally to have on your side when you really need tickets. Knowing the right broker makes buying tickets easy and secure. PlatinumTickets.com Las Vegas Show Tickets page is a good resource if you’re looking to get an idea on the average market price for Vegas event tickets. Choose a well established broker that has been in the business a while. Bigger brokers offer better prices and dependable service because they’ve been around long enough to streamline the brokering process.

Trying your luck with online ticket trading sites such as eBay and StubHub can be a crapshoot. Be very weary of fraud when dealing with individual ticket sellers. Never buy from a seller unless you’re confident you can locate their physical address in case the tickets don’t come through. You’ll often find brokers on these sites as well. Whether you’re buying from a broker or an individual, do your homework to make sure they are credible. Established brokers have an advantage here and credible brokers will always display a BBB logo on their site and provide safe secured online transactions with data encryption.

If you’re contemplating buying tickets “on the street” from a “ticket scalper” you must think you’re very lucky indeed. Scalping is highly discouraged in Sin City as well as illegal. If you are lucky enough to see someone selling tickets outside the venue the day you want to attend, there will probably be an officer nearby just waiting for him to try and sell them to you.

The moral of the story; if you want tickets to one of Vegas’ hottest events, you’re going to need a trusted broker. Don’t gamble with a seller if there’s any question about their credibility. If a deal sounds too good to be true… you know how the cliché goes.
