| TICKET AVAILABILITY | Ticket
availability and prices quoted are subject to change without
notice. Ticket prices and availability are not
guaranteed until orders are confirmed. TIX
further reserves the right to refuse any order at our
discretion. We will contact you if the tickets you
ordered are no longer available or if we are unable to fill
the order as you requested. We may offer you alternate
seats if the original seats you requested are not available.
We also may direct you back to our online ordering site to
review current inventory. We reserve the right to
upgrade your tickets for the same price. Theater
tickets for box office pickup are for the best available
"house" seats.
Exact seat location can not be guaranteed for
"house" seats.
Tickets are available only in the quantities advertised. All sets of tickets are located next to each other, unless otherwise indicated or you are contacted with additional information. |
| TICKET PRICES | DUE TO THE EFFORTS AND COSTS INVOLVED, SOME TICKETS ARE SOLD AT ABOVE FACE VALUE. Prices quoted include a service charge over the face value. The service charge varies with each ticket and depends on seat quality, supply and demand, and our cost of acquiring premium tickets. For very popular events the service charge can be several times the face value. All Prices are guaranteed at the time the order is CONFIRMED by TIX. All prices are quoted in U.S. dollars. |
| Seat Numbers | Seat numbers are only released to the auction winner for both buyer and seller privacy. If you need to know this information before you buy the tickets please call and we will give you a limited range of the seat numbers. |
| SEATING CHARTS | Any seating chart(s) and seating information provided is used as an indication of seat locations. While we make efforts to be as precise as possible with the information available to us, changes made by the promoter, band or venue without our knowledge do happen from time to time. We cannot be held responsible for changes made to the layout of the stage or seating configuration. Buyer assumes full responsibility for final venue layout. As with all of our auctions, the exact section and row of each ticket is clearly listed |
| CONFIRMED ORDERS | You
will be notified by telephone, email or fax once your order
is confirmed. TIX is not responsible for email
confirmation not received. Orders placed after 5PM E.S.T. weekdays, holidays or on weekends may not be processed until the next working day. |

| REFUNDS & EXCHANGES | ALL
SALES ARE FINAL NO REFUNDS, CANCELLATIONS OR EXCHANGES. Once you win an auction there are no refunds or exchanges. If the seat locations you have requested are no longer available we will cancel your order and refund your payment. Comparable seats may be offered to you if your exact ticket request is no longer available. |
| CANCELLATIONS | Please double check your order before submitting. We encourage you to check the dates and venues to ensure you are ordering the exact event you desire.

In case of a rainout or strike for a sporting event no refunds will be made. You must exchange the ticket at the ballpark for a seat to a future game that is still available. |
| CANCELED EVENTS | For canceled events of which there is no rescheduled date, full store credit will be issued to the purchaser except for an act of God, act of terrorism, strike, lockout or any postponements, less shipping and handling, provided the tickets are returned to this office within five (5) business days of the original event date. After 5 days of the original event date, you may need to return tickets directly to the box office for a face value refund only. We suggest you return the tickets via certified, insured mail, FedEx, etc. Store credits may be used for up to one (1) full year from the credit date, after which time the credit expires. |
| UNPLAYED POSTSEASON GAMES | Postseason games (such as playoffs) that are no longer required to be played and are officially canceled by the league are fully refundable, less shipping fees and Ticket Master (or other computerized ticketing outlet) fees that are non-refundable. |
| DELIVERY | Tickets
are delivered using an express courier service, such as
FedEx. We require a signature on all deliveries.
The courier must deliver it to the address on the package. They can not deliver it to any other address. If you have any specific delivery requirements please make those arrangements when you place the order. Tickets are normally sent to your credit card billing address. The Billing Address will be verified with your credit card company so you must use the exact address that your statements are mailed to. Should you require that the order be shipped to an alternate address we will require you to complete and fax us a CREDIT CARD AUTHORIZATION FORM and a signed copy of the invoice along with legible copies of your driver's license and the credit card that was used. This is done to protect both of us against fraudulent use. Your order will be canceled if this documentation is not provided. Should you require that the courier deliver the shipment without obtaining a signature we will require you to complete and fax us a CREDIT CARD AUTHORIZATION FORM and a signed copy of the invoice along with legible copies of your driver's license and the credit card that was used. This is done to protect both of us against fraudulent use. Your order will be canceled if this documentation is not provided. We will not be responsible for lost, stolen or damaged tickets if you waive the signature requirement. The tickets will be delivered using the best method. If possible we will inform you of the courier and when to expect delivery when the order is confirmed. Shipping charges will be higher for deliveries to Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, International, Saturday, Sunday and Holidays.We will charge you a $10 fee for shipments that either are re-routed after leaving our office or are incorrectly addressed due to customer's error. Shipping labels are generated directly from the shipping information you have entered on the Ticket Order Form. If you provide us an incorrect zip code or other addressing error e.g. incorrect or missing apartment number, you will be charged the $10 fee since, the shipping company will charge us a fee for this correction. Due to the nature of our business, delivery of tickets could be as late as the day of the event. Ticket delivery time begins once we are in possession of tickets and not when your order is placed. If you do not receive your tickets at least two (2) business days prior to the event, you must call or email our office so we can track your shipment. TIX is not responsible for late deliveries if you do not call us at least two business days prior to the event to advise us that you have not received your package. |
| BOX OFFICE PICK-UP | Should
your tickets need to be
picked up at the Box Office or other designated location we
require you to complete and fax us a CREDIT
CARD AUTHORIZATION FORM and a signed copy of the
invoice along with legible copies of your driver's license
and the credit card that was used. This is done to protect
both of us against fraudulent use. Your order will be
canceled if this documentation is not provided.
TIX is not responsible for tickets left at the box office or any other location if client fails to pick up their ordered tickets. Please call your agent immediately if tickets are not at the box office. If you are not called back within 5 minutes call our office at 1-800-872-8849 extension 911. You will be called back with instructions. |
| WEATHER | Weather
conditions may affect travel to and from the event, and may
cause the postponement or cancellation of the event. Such
circumstances are beyond the control of TIX and accordingly,
no refund for unused services, or allowance for the loss of
enjoyment caused be weather conditions, will be made by TIX.
We recommend that you monitor local radio stations or call
the venue for accurate, up to date schedule announcements. Weather conditions may also delay, postpone or cancel an event on any day; customer will assume all weather risks as there will be NO refunds for rain-outs or other weather conditions, acts of Nature or other events which disrupt play, all events purchased through us should be considered as "rain-or-shine" final purchases. In case of an official rainout for a sporting event no refunds will be made. You must exchange the ticket at the ballpark for a seat to a future game that is still available. |
| TRANSPORTATION | TIX shall not be held responsible for damages, for delays, cancellations or unavailability of public or private transportation caused by an act of God, by acts of war, riot, civil commotion, by an act of State, by strikes, fire, flood, restricted availability, or by the occurrence of any other event beyond the control of TIX. |

TIX is unable to fill your ticket order as specified, TIX
will give you the following options: 1. Tickets can be upgraded at your expense (subject to availability). 2. Tickets can be downgraded with a partial refund (subject to availability). 3. Ticket order may be canceled with a full refund. In the event tickets are unavailable for a confirmed order, TIX liability shall be a refund of up to two times the original purchase price. If delivery of ticket is guaranteed, and the ticket is not delivered, TIX shall provide a refund equal to 100% of the contracted price, unless non-delivery is caused by an Act of God (snowstorm, flood, earthquake, etc.) or courier being unable to deliver tickets due to inability to obtain recipients signature, business closed, invalid address, etc. If a problem occurs and delivery of an exact ticket location becomes impossible, no penalty shall apply if TIX offers the buyer a comparable ticket at the same or lower price as the contracted ticket. In the rare instance that a ticket purchased by TIX for a client is later found to have been stolen, counterfeited or reported lost by the original purchaser, and TIX purchased these tickets in good faith, then TIX shall be liable only to refund the full contracted price.

| CREDIT CARD PAYMENT | We
accept VISA, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, Diners
Club, Carte Blanche and the JCB Card
Your
name and home address must exactly match the address on your
monthly credit card statement from the issuing bank or the
transaction will be denied. Failure to provide a
correct billing address will result in delays in processing
your order which may result in tickets not being available.
You must also be able to receive the tickets at the credit
card billing address; someone must be available to sign for
the tickets when they arrive at the billing address; or you
must leave a signature waiver note to authorize an
unreceipted delivery of tickets. Failure to do so may mean
that you will not receive your tickets in time for the
event. TIX will not be responsible for undeliverable
tickets. The Billing
Address will be verified with your credit card company so
you must use the exact address that your statements are
sent. It
is a violation of law to place an order or Bid in a false
name or with an invalid credit card. Please be aware
that even if you do not give us your real name, your web
browser transmits a unique Internet address to us that can
be used by law enforcement officials to identify you.
Fraudulent users will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of
the law. I
understand that TIX will apply a chargeback fee to my
account of $25, if I initialize a chargeback with my credit
card issuer, to reverse payment without TIX's permission of
any of the charges authorized on this form, and I agree to
pay this fee if this occurs. |
