    If the event is still taking place as advertised and the tickets are valid, the fact you bought them on a credit card is irrelevant. The card company is in no way liable to provide a refund simply because something else has popped up in your busy social calendar.

    So I'd suggest contacting the seller and seeing what options, if any, they give.

    If these things can be sold on eBay or other sites, then that would be my final suggeston.

    You might also find that they could be sold through ticketmaster and some of your money recovered that way
  • cheers for responces
    unfortunatly you have to have the tickets in hand to sell them through ticketmaster and unfortunatly as i was a international purchaser i had to choose the will call option so wont get the tickets till two days before the event

    Try VIAGOGO.
  • I've been to two manias myself and had to collect tickets via willcall, both times in different states (Houston/Arizona) they not only wanted the card used to purchase but also photographic ID. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
