Concert tickets tips
In France
Buy tickets on fnac.com and collect tickets in one of the Fnac stores: there will be no additional service nor delivery charges. Avoid ticketnet.fr, not only they charge high delivery fees, but they ask you to fax an id and a copy of the card used for the payment!
In the US
Seek local alternatives (e.g. MultiStage Productions in Boston -- they have good concerts and are friendly) to Ticketmaster who charge people too many fees. Although tickets given by local ticketseller still are written Ticketmaster on them, so I am not sure if it makes a real difference. In any case, it gives you the feeling not to support a monopoly.
