If purchased through ticketmaster some events have the option to resell on ticketmaster directly -worth checking if you haven't. Or maybe something like stubhub.

Though may have trouble selling a single ticket unless it's quite a good seat and the event is sold out....and the buyer may be wary of not being able to get their hands on the ticket until so close to the event.

Pretty sure scalping is illegal in Vegas, but no idea how closely they watch these things.

Delighted emailed them and they refunded FULL price of one of my 4 tickets so couldn't be happier.:T

We've now decided to splash out a little and stay at the cosmopolitan. Any good deals around? 4 nights for the price of 3 on their website isn't looking too bad.

Have a look on Expedia, they've been giving out some really good prices, we booked in june in 1 bed terrace for 5 nights for £515 with about £60 back in quidco, thought that was a bargain!!

Thanks for your reply. With nothing to compare it to I wasn't sure if it was a good price or not I think I need to have another look at some cheaper hotels and less 'posh' rooms.

Paris is nice -well situated and has a nice feel -no resort fees either.

if you go onto cosmos official website and look at the deals they have a 20% advance booking deal and a 'stay 4 nights pay 3'. see which one comes out cheaper.
there is also no resort fee for the comso so factor this into your stay when comparing with other resorts.

We are thinking of staying at Cosmopolitan for part of our trip in April. British Airways Hotels is working out cheapest for the nights we want to stay and includes free breakfast at Wicked Spoon each morning (worth about $40 a day?). Might be worth you checking out too.

I also like Paris, but it isnt quite the same as a lakeview room at Bellagio

A terrace premium view room at Cosmopolitan would def fit the bill , if you are wanting luxury and a lot cheaper than Bellagio, but with (almost) the same view

I've never looked at that one either so will have a look I can't get their website to work though it must be down.

Thanks for the ideas
