How are Ticketmaster Auctions different from other online auctions?
Ticketmaster Auctions are unlike other online auction sites that allow consumers to directly or indirectly sell their tickets. Our auctions allow our venues, promoters, and artists to sell tickets directly to fans-thereby letting the fans set the value for live entertainment. The main difference with Ticketmaster Auctions is there can be multiple winners within the same auction. However, you are NOT bidding for tickets to a particular seat, row or section. Instead, you are only bidding for tickets to see the show in a seat that will later be determined by comparing your bid with other bids that are submitted before the auction ends. Specifically, the tickets within an auction have been ranked according to what the event providers or Ticketmaster have determined in their subjective discretion to be from greater to lesser desirability. At the end of the auction, tickets will be assigned to winning bidders based on those rankings so that those who bid higher than you will be assigned high
