This is a classic SEO tactic of ticket resellers. I clicked the first link and thought I was on the venue's website. I thought I was buying the last two tickets in existence. I paid a high markup when regular-priced tickets were available. Beware of Go Tickets and other resellers. They have a no-returns policy, and my attempts to dispute the charges with my CC failed. Charges are kept in pending so you can't dispute them. There may have been a narrow window in between when the charges go through and when the tickets were delivered.
