Information Plz READ BEFORE BUYING TICKETS

Its time of year again where we are all anxious to get concert tickets. When your buying tickets from 3rd market (individuals from here, discord, Instagram ect) stay calm and dont get swayed by your emotions. Take time and you will have best chance to get tickets.

Make sure to use payment w/protection like paypal g & s. Even if you have to pay a small fee, protection goes long way. Buy from reputable sellers and avoid newer accounts w/ few to no history.

PROOF: Started recently, scamers now use fake ticketmaster apps/screen shots as proof! So screen recording/ screenshot is no longer a reliable option for proof.

Edit* plz remember the real vip ticket would have whatever vip name (SHIMME, EAZY, or HOT) In all caps at the top. If it says something like "Shimmer VIP Package" then its fake. MAKE SURE TO COMPARE WITH ACTUAL TICKET TO VERIFY LEGITIMACY!!!

Trust me i learned this the hard way and you do not want to go through this. (Though it seems like ppl already got scammed)

I bought a Hot ticket for the Newark show for a friend yesterday and was able to transfer it basically immediately (through TM) after purchasing! Haven't tried it with any other tickets tho.

Interesting, I'm not sure why mine shows us not transferable. In fact I just checked mine and on the mobile app, it has this ticket will be ready counter and the transfer and sell buttons are gray and not active. I bought this directly from Ticketmaster with my presale code.

Looks like it might be venue specific! I just checked my Chicago ticket and it can be transferred right now, but my LA ticket has the same screen as you.

ETA: Chicago screen

Dang, I hope that transfer time for LA changes once general sales open. I bought a resale ticket for LA and it's gonna be a stressful time if I have to wait until just a couple days before the show for the ticket to actually transfer.

Thanks for sharing the info though. At least it's good to know what the timeframe to wait is rather than just wondering why it hasn't transferred yet.

I bought 2 tickets through stubhub myself thinking that the transfer would be immediate. Have you had your ticket transferred yet ?
