EDIT- Problem solved, most likely.
Okay today I bought a ticket to the Great American Bash. It was $100 for a section right by the ring( which is like $200 below face value, which I found odd). Guy had good feedback though. The seller said the ticket would be sent thru an email after payment..
So I paid and I got the email. It contained a really long Ticketmaster link. I clicked it, signed in, and it said " The page you are trying to access has timed out." I've tried numerous times and it keeps saying this.
---am I being screwed here? How would this work anyways. I mean wouldn't he need MY Ticketmaster info in order to transfer the ticket from account to account? Or wouldn't I need HIS sign-in info to print the ticket out?
I'm lost here and I really hope this works out because I really want to go tonight..

Sorry dude haven't really got a clue... not sure what to say either.
Possibly you've been screwed sadly?

E-mail him right away and hope to God that he responds, being 4 hours away from the event. I would have just bought from Stubhub, a cheap ticket. Ebay is too risky on the day of.

I would e-mail him. When I get tickets from ebay sent through ticketfast I usually don't have to sign in and the tickets are sent in a pdf file.

I would definitely email him or see if you can't find a phone number to get in touch with him.
If you want, you can send the email to me and I'll see what I can do - I've got quite a bit of experience when it comes to dealing with Ticketmaster, I work for a ticket broker.
And StubHub isn't necessarily a solid way to get tickets on the day of the event. If the tickets are hard and didn't get shipped to the correct location, you're still out of luck. I've seen it happen a thousand times.

Okay this is settled now. He gave me his sign-in info( kinda surprising lol) and I printed the ticket from his account.
The only possible way something could go wrong now is if there's a duplicate copy out there.

I thought it was, but it only costed him $95..

I don't know the seating chart, but I'm guessing thats Row O of a floor section? I suppose it could be decent, its quite a ways back on the floor but as long as people aren't standing the entire night you should have a solid view, or if you're tall you've got nothing to worry about.

Yeah it's on the floor. I'm a bit worried that the floor isn't inclined at all and people will be standing all night, but whatever---it's really just the atmosphere of being there, not how good you can see.

You're a lucky guy to be going on such short notice, and on top of that having an awesome seat.

The floor won't be inclined, you'll be at the same level the people in the first row are, but from my experience, people usually only stand during entrances. You should be alright.

You still don't know if he's going to pull a fast one on you and beat you to the gate, have his ticket (a double of yours) scanned before you get a chance to, which would mean you wouldn't be able to get into the show. So I would just make sure you're there early, and in the doors as soon as they open.

Provided they're using a normal alphabet...15 rows back on the floor doesn't seem all that great.

Everything ended up working out fine.
Seats were okay. Not as great as I thought they would be last night, but still very close.
