Thread to introduce buyers to sellers. r/lorde is not responsible for any transactions here, please do your due diligence on sellers and use safe independent payment methods ideally with dispute opportunities should something go wrong.

Carried over from original thread, great advice from u/All_hail_Korrok:
**So you're going to buy tickets from someone on reddit: what to know before you DM them:**

I hate scalpers and scammers. I've been there and it's a horrible feeling. I've also read people going through that on band's subreddit. I don't want anyone to experience that and hope this will instill you with a "buyer beware" mentality:

* Check their post history: if their account is new or has a history of selling stuff then proceed with caution. If it's sporadic or has a history of regular comments then they should be ok.

* Buy only through PayPal goods and services: Never accept anything but that. Sellers will insist on using everything but that because "I want to avoid paying fees". Remember: cash app, venmo, paypal f&f, etc. are used for people you know! Stuff for minute things like splitting a bill, gifts, grocery's, or beer money.

* Don't be afraid asking for proof: ask them for a picture or their IG. Remember: this is your money and you reserve all rights to know you're getting what you're paying for.

Always trust your gut and never let the seller dictate your purchase. Any resistance from them should be a red flag. Always proceed with caution.
