    I have 3 tickets for a certain marley park gig and am having trouble trying to find a buyer. Have to go to a wedding next friday. Are there any shops that will buy them back in dublin? I am thinking maybe smaller places like comet or sound cellar. I could sell them back for €10-15 less and they keep the profit.

    Soundcellar took ones back before. Well I bought them there and the gig sold out, so I left them with the guy for the day, came back later and he had sold them for me.

    I got these online but they might be worth a try. I would sell them for €15-20 below face, cant see why they wouldnt say yes to that.

    Ticketmaster are taking them back from me!
    I went onto their site and went to the online refund section for cancelled gigs. The support act for the band had pulled out. I had never seen ticketmaster advertise that they were playing but it was fairly "official" on other sites.
    In the email I just said I only got the tickets to see the support act, so they have asked to send them to a certain address for a full refund.

    My other tip would be to search for completed listings on ebay. You can check the bid history and see what people who did not win had as their max bid, so you can then email them and offer it at that price

    Nuts!
    I am in the same boat as the OP...a certain gig tomorrow night
    I guess I've left it too late to get money back from Ticketmaster?
