Beware of this SCAM! You'll spend $$$ on tickets with NO WAY to get your money back!
3 weeks ago I was served a FB ad for The Music of the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit In Concert. I two purchased back-of-balcony tickets totaling $200 - a LOT for the worst seats but I wanted to buy it as a pre-wedding date night treat for my fiance and I since we'll be having music from LOTR at our wedding. The tickets were resale through ticketmaster, and I paid for insurance. The show was scheduled for Oct 7. When I looked up more about the show to get excited, MY HEART DROPPED. Turns out this show is a known scam concert that the composer of the LOTR has warned against, and they just finished a run in Europe where customers said it was a trainwreck that many walked out on it was so bad. Unfortunately for me, ticket insurance only covers illness and emergency. I figured we'd just go anyway. Well, TODAY I receive an email that it's postponed with no date TBA. I contacted ticketmaster and they said i'm ineligible for refunds because the refund period was back in MAY (5 months ago). How was I supposed to know BEFORE I bought the tickets that the show was already postponed before? Anyway, there's groups on facebook where people who got scammed by the Europe concerts trying to organize a class action lawsuit it was such a waste of money. When I tried to find this company's website, it's conveniently 'under construction' so there's no way to contact the organizers regarding a refund. If I don't hear from the company itself, I'm filing a chargeback with my credit card company because this is absolutely unethical, shady, and scammy.
