PAGE 17. Melville takes part in 200-year-old tradition Buyers beware when purchasing tickets for sporting or concert events from eBay and not from a known vendor. A 40-year-old male resident of Huron East purchased e-bay tickets from a seller for $144. The tickets were obtained on Dec. 4 for a Motley Crue concert in London. The victim attended the concert and was pulled aside by concert security and advised that the tickets were reported stolen and had been voided as a result.
