Thanks sooo much!!!!!!!!!" --McKenzie in Troy, NY
"I ordered tickets to [see an NHL game] while we are on vacation in Fort Lauderdale Florida in March. Being in Canada, I was a little unsure of your service but thought I would give it a try. I cannot believe how incredible it was through the whole process. From step one I received an e-mail telling me about my order. Then again and again I received e-mails as my tickets were shipped and the dates and where they were along the way. What a magnificent set up you have and I will definitely put you in my favourites as the BEST place to purchase tickets in the future. Great service, great prices!! Thank you so very much I am thrilled with my tickets!" --Sandra in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
"Everything was great. Your service was great. The seats were great. Thanks for the parking pass and the tickets for drinks to the lounge. I am a satisfied customer and I will use you guys again when I need tickets to a show. I would highly recommend your company to people I know in other cities if your service was available. Thank you again." --Joe in Canton, OH
"Got my tickets from you at the last minute. Seats were great, customer service awesome. I passed your number around at a party the following night. Told everybody how great you were. A friend is looking for tickets for Van Halen at the Izod Center. They have your number... Thanks again." --Gina in Lanoka Harbor, NJ
"Thanks for the On-Line Ticket Exchange. I bought tickets to hear THE POLICE @ the Toyota Center on my daughter's 17th birthday! I scored major "mom" points with these tickets. Thanks Again!" --Gail in Spring, TX
"I do not leave feedback often unless the service and/or product was exceptional. Just wanted you to know that the 3 tickets for a St. Louis Blues NHL game I purchased from your site were unbelievable. I knew they would be fairly decent seats when I ordered them. But, having never been to Scottrade center I was blown away to be sitting 9 rows up off center ice for around $60/ticket. We were so close, you could hear the words the players were yelling at one another. These were normally $127/ticket seats. The tickets arrived within 2 days of the order being placed, in mint condition, exactly as described. I will definitely use this service again and recommend it to others." --Kathleen in Topeka, Kansas
