Anyone had an experience buying tickets from BroadwayTickets.org?  Reputable or shady?

Never heard of it. What's on there that you can't buy from the official seller?

I was looking at some Hamilton tickets on there too, and would love to know as well.

I just looked at the site...and a few links were broken off the bat.  Do you see prices there that are so much lower than StubHub or TicketExchange?

They are all within $50 of each other more often than not.

I wouldn't buy Hamilton tickets from anywhere except Ticketmaster, due to the amount of fraud.

If you don't buy from Ticketmaster, be sure to get to the theater very early and make sure you are the first person with that ticket to get through the door... rather than being the one turned away five minutes later with the same barcodes.

Or just don't buy from someone other than Ticketmaster.

I know it's not the same site, but I purchased my Hamilton tickets through Broadway.com and had no issues. Sure, I paid a premium service fee, but it was far cheaper than resale on TM. I bought them back in June for this past Friday (after my attempts to go through TM post-Tony's failed and the tickets were lost from my cart). I was nervous leading up to the performance, but I showed up about 45 minutes prior to curtain and there they were, waiting in an envelope at Will Call. I can at least vouch for them, but otherwise I've only ever gone through TM or Telecharge.

Broadway.com is a trustworthy site, but it's pretty much a scam because of the prices. For a sold out Hamilton though, it's fine.

Oh sure, and I would never dream of paying their prices otherwise (I bought my DEH tickets direct from Telecharge, for example). But when their price for 2 center mezz tickets was far less than 1 under TM resales, I decided to go for it. Definitely not a splurge I can afford to do often, but well worth it in this instance!
