Are ALL TicketMaster phone requests at that time going too be routed to a central location? If so, that seems really clunky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been trying to call these other locations to see if they'll be selling but of course you get the automated movie phone crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes it sound like you're actually WORSE OFF calling a satellite outlet, since you'll spend time winding through that system only to then be put in the back of the line versus going right to the back of the line ( ) if you call the direct numbers.

Kid Gleason Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Can anybody explain why a ticket broker such as Tickets Now is NOT considered scalpers? I have a ticket now right in the same building with me (there are only two offices here really, us and them), and I just don't get how that is a legal business.
