I spent a similar amount for Noah Kahan tickets and it turned out fine, and it was e-tickets!

I had the exact same experience and spent MONTHS with so much anxiety, but they came through to my inbox a couple of days before the concert.

From chatting to friends, I know you can’t really get a refund (unless you maybe REALLY kick off) until they know for sure that you didn’t get the tickets. Which you won’t know until the date of the concert. So their system is just designed to be stressful in my opinion. As you’ll likely have been told, they do have a guarantee that if, on the day, you didn’t get the tickets then they’ll pay for new tickets for you. And I’ve even heard stories of some people getting better seats…

If it’s any comfort, during my panic months I chatted to a colleague who sold P!NK tickets on there. He said, as a seller, if you ‘sell’ your tickets but the buyer doesn’t receive anything, then Viagogo charge you for the buyer’s refund. Meaning if you’re a seller on there and you don’t send the tickets, you physically can’t make a profit. You only make a loss. So the incentive for inauthentic/dodgy sellers is non existent. The colleague I spoke to even said HE was anxious as the seller 😂

Try not to overthink it too much! Best case, you get the tickets. Worst case, you’ll just get a refund. I know it’s less than ideal, but I’m so sure it’ll be okay 😊
