Eventually they (ticketmaster) will hold the best seats back from ticketmaster.com and you'll be buying from the secondary "partner" site, ticketsnow.com. They may have some sort of preferred broker relationship to make it look legit but don't be fooled...TM wants a piece of the secondary market, they can't help themselves the markups are crazy! You're better off doing price comparisons once they kick you over into the secondary market, ticketsnow.com is more expensive due to markup and hidden fees than some of the other secondary sites like stubhub, razorgator and ticketliquidators.com.

Ticketmaster is owned by EXPEDIA and EXPEDIA tried to scam me once (Click on my name to read about my case). Deceptive business practice migh tbe common for all EXPEDIA related businesses.
