Rights for cost of re-installation

Ticketmaster denying responsibility for a claim
All, I booked concert tickets via Ticketmaster. For reasons I won't go into here, I am trying to claim a portion of the ticket cost back, because I feel that the tickets were misrepresented on their website and possibly in breach of the Sale of Goods Act (misleading advertising).

Hi, we bought a 'reconditioned' stairlift last April from a company with good reviews. We paid £200 more than their normal reconditioned price, as the lift was 'nearly new, only used 4 times'.

Amazon Slovakia refused my delivery and sent it back to me
