When someone buys a ticket from a venue’s box office -- known as the primary ticket seller -- they have the right to resell that ticket to a different ticket seeker. Sellers in the secondary ticket market may involve licensed ticket sellers, ticket firms, box office promoters, and individuals like you. Only Bloomington Tickets shows you tickets from an extensive ticket marketplace, and restricts tickets for Bloomington and adjoining towns so you will quickly find the best seats in your area.
The price/demand model runs the secondary ticket market, and you could find that price points fluctuate as you get closer to the event. It’s not uncommon to see tickets fall less than box office pricing. You may also see hard-to-find seats for sold out shows that may cost more than the box office purchase price. The rule to the secondary marketplace is to come back over time to see what’s available in Bloomington.
Contingent on the seller and event, you might receive your tickets in a few different methods:
Email download: A code will be emailed to you before the event, and you may download your physical ticket. These e-tickets may need to be obtained with My Ticket Tracker.
Mailed: The ticket seller will send the physical tickets through FedEx. Tickets are guaranteed to arrive before showtime, and you’ll receive a FedEx tracking number once your package is mailed.
Will Call Office: Tickets will be waiting for you in the venue will call or box office area.
Outside Pick-up: Tickets have to be collected at a close location (not more than 20-30 minutes away from the venue).
Paperless: The seller will connect with your party at the venue and accompany you to the box office.
Flash: The seller will mail you a gift card that you will need to use at the event box office. It will have the initial sale info and will give a viable receipt.
You can pick an alternate shipping address -- a street address or P.O. boxes -- for most ticket orders placed through Only Bloomington Tickets. However, on sales over $750, the ticket seller can refuse to mail to a different place other than the billing address. Furthermore, sellers may ask for a signed authorization from you if they need evidence that the delivery address is valid.
Instant tickets generally show as available to download and print once you finish the order. Please allow for processing time, which might take up to one business day. You will receive a confirmation email showing you how to use your instant tickets.
To ensure you have the best experience in Bloomington, all tickets have a 100% Money Back Guarantee if:
- The seller never fulfills your order
- Your tickets arrive after the event begins
- Your tickets are deemed void by the venue. (Verifiable proof must be issued by the venue in the form of a written letter.)
- The event was canceled and not rescheduled. (Reimbursement excludes shipping fees.)
Tickets on Only Bloomington Tickets are generally first-come, first-served. If another buyer submits their purchase before you, your purchase will end during purchase. Unfortunately, you will have to return to that event and attempt to order a different seat.
Many sellers own several groups of seats and can book orders better if they leave off the seating numbers on their listings. Of course, you'll see the rows and sections to choose from. Your seats will be with each other, unless specifically noted.
Because this is a resale marketplace, the ticket will show the first buyer’s name instead of yours. However, you will still get be admitted into the event because it's the bar code that's required to enter.
To avoid ticketing scams, most tickets are one-of-a-kind entities. As such, if your tickets are stolen, ruined, or lost you can contact the seller about replacing lost tickets. However, sales cannot be refunded.
If an event gets totally called off, you are eligible for a full reimbursement (shipping not refundable). If the event has been put off and set for a new time, your tickets will carry over to the new date.
