Hi all. Just wanted to relate my bad experience last week as I tried to secure VIP Roo tickets for my wife and me as part of our second anniversary celebration. Bottom line, I got played and am out several hundred dollars as a result. No point in going into great detail, but if you search for tickets on craigslist and the seller says s/he works for Trailfinders, a real British firm that arranges custom travel packages, and needs to unload a couple tickets they were stuck with by a cancellation, run away. Even though this individual provided me very credible information at every step of the way, including photos, tracking numbers, locations, business and personal info, s/he is a total fraud. eBay is much safer, as you're at least certain of getting your money back - if paying via PayPal or similar services. Good luck to all. I'm desperately searching for a pair of VIP tix at a wildly steep discount, but doubt it'll happen.
"That's the big thing about education. People can be book smart, but not really intelligent about anything else. A lot of times they just taking in all this information and regurgitate it. It's much more important to process it and personalize it. To apply it to your world, to your life. You have to walk the walk, or you can't really report about it honestly."
Thanks for the tip, but I can no longer afford to pay for anything greater than about 25% face, so I'm not going to bother looking until tomorrow afternoon. FYI, it was on the Nashville craigs that I found my scam.
Craigslist is rife with scams. Only do business via craigslist locally. I got a single VIP (for face) for a friend via CL and it was a relatively painless transaction...
I just found this in a later thread . . . maybe you'll could figure something out.
We're stuck with a pair of VIP tickets (plus parking pass) due to buddies dropping out. We just want to get our money back. $1200. We'll ship ASAP. Payment via paypal if okay. We can even hand deliver in you're in the Nashville area. Please let us know soon.

I love craigslist but don't ever take a money order(they're often fake) and always deal locally and in cash.
Actually, I sold my extra ticket to someone out-of-town, who had his buddy pick it up locally. The transaction was via Paypal, which (I thought) guaranteed their transactions. Also, it allowed him to use his credit card, and those often have guarantees of their own, if Paypal doesn't come through....
I've just heard of lots of people getting shammed with fake money orders
