I`m looking to buy two Cubs tickets for 8/14 or 8/15, either one. I`ll be in town and I`d love to see a game. I`d prefer to sit in the bleachers but I`ll consider any offers. I trust Autopia members more than I trust ebay.

How to Get the Cheapest Event Tickets
A Wall Street Journal journalist wanted to find out how easily and cheaply he could find tickets for certain entertainment venues. After doing some research, he found that Ticketmaster (http://www.ticketmaster.com/) was cheapest when the event was not sold out. But for sold out events, it turns out Craigslist (http://sfbay.craigslist.org/) is the best! CraigsList is good because it’s person to person; you meet the person who’s selling, and that helps prevent buying counterfeits.
Some promoters and sports teams are learning that most fans can’t or won’t pay corporate prices, and are starting to offer cheap back-of-house seats. Having empty seats really hurts the feel of the event. People who buy cheap seats -- the real fans -- bring life to the concert or event. And they often buy more at the concession stand!
