South Windsor online ticket reseller TicketNetwork has sued one of its brokers, claiming that the Pennsylvania company failed to deliver on nearly $294,000 worth of orders for Super Bowl tickets.
DEM Ticketing had been licensed since November to list tickets on TicketNetwork’s online exchange for sale to third parties.
The complaint alleges breach of contract and unjust enrichment, and asks for compensatory damages, interest, fees and any other compensation deemed appropriate by the court.
TicketNetwork's attorney said his client did not wish to comment on pending litigation. Dem Ticketing could not be reached for comment Monday.
Dozens of Super Bowl ticket orders through TicketNetwork and its affiliated websites and brokers went unfilled, according to an April 4 story in the Seattle Times, which reported that many brokers “short sell” tickets — meaning they accept payments before they actually acquire all the tickets have promised.
Washington’s attorney general has received more than 138 complaints regarding such short selling, the Seattle Times said. Of those, at least 10 are about TicketNetwork and an affiliate website, the paper said.
