I have a warning to anyone thinking about buying hard to find KISS tickets through EBAY. DO NOT DO IT! I recently bid and won an auction for 4 seats to the upcoming Minnesota State Fair for myself, my husband, my 10 year old son, and our 3 year old grandson. I was promised excellent seats, (Plaza 5, row 9,) plus a parking and vending package for $158.50 per ticket. After shelling out close to $675.00, I come to find out that there have been a number of incidents of the same tickets being sold and electronically delivered dozens of times throughout the last few months of this tour. Worse yet, I have been told by EBAY that there is nothing that can be done at this time to stop this. And if that's not bad enough, there is absolutely no chance that we can get our money back because the thieves open and close new EBAY accounts after receiving who knows how many payments for the same tickets. So please be very careful if any of you are looking to get last minute tickets on EBAY. And whatever you do, DO NOT purchase tickets that are offered with electronic delivery. Unless actual hard copies of tickets are being sold, chances are you could end up out a lot of money and very disappointed with fraudulent tickets. This is not at all a problem caused by EBAY, but by a few crooked S.O.B.'s looking to make an easy dollar selling on EBAY. Thanks for letting me post this. Hopefully it will keep anyone else from falling prey to this scam. Rebecca L. Wilson
