Haven't come across craigslist before, how risky are we talking?
It's an online classified ad site that's extremely popular in the U.S. but hasn't caught on elsewhere, interestingly, so the risk is whatever you think it is when dealing with an unknown third party. In other words, I'd feel comfortable using it to set up an in-person meeting to exchange something that I may not absolutely need (e.g. a new coffee table or couch or whatever), but I'd never conduct business wholly online with anyone posting on CL, nor would I rely on anyone posting there to actually deliver something they're posting (i.e. even if I can meet them in person when I get into town, I wouldn't rely on arrangements to get expensive tickets from someone on CL--I'd only do it on sold-out events or if the tickets are an incredible deal, and I'd consider it a bonus if the transaction goes through, but I'd be prepared to expect that the arrangements have fallen through and have backup plans).

I have used Ebay on numerous occasions for Lakers tickets and have never been disappointed. You can check feedback etc. May people have "Ticketfast" tickets which can be e-mailed right to you, you print it out and go!
