Genuine tickets

[Storm/Light]

Hey there, me yet again...

Just have to ask about tickets and how to find genuine tickets. Is there a specific mark or squiggle on a ticket that means it's official? I was looking around on Ebay and some people posted pictures of the tickets, but I just wanted to know what to look out for.

Thanks!

When i buy tickets on ebay, I look for ebayers who have plenty of good feedback, and have sold tickets before.

But always be aware that the ticket that is shown , might not be the one that you are buying, It may have been borrowed from another ebayer's description. This can be for many reasons,mostly genuine, such as the seller not having a decent digital camera, the seller being worried (falsely) that the promoter might read the ticket number from the screen and cancel it, or alarmingly, because the vendor does not actually have a ticket yet!!

Ticketmaster tickets normally have a circular foil hologram on them, and these are hard to counterfeit.
