For a non-jerky-you-around-y ticketing option, try https://lilregie.com -- it's a bootstrapped (self-funded) startup from the folks behind the Webstock conference. They built Lil Regie to meet their ticketing needs, offered it to the world, and have been adding features ever since. I have no equity, am just a happy customer.
Wow, that's really cheap. I've been pretty happy with Brown Paper Tickets for a number of years. An important feature for me, that Lil Regie doesn't seem to have, is the ability to place ticket orders by phone. A lot of my customers aren't web savvy.
Just checked with them. "Not quite yet! We're just testing a ticketing option and hope to release it soon. That will send out a PDF ticket with a unique barcode on it. However, someone will need to be able to read it. At a future date, we hope to have a Lil Regie app for that, but that will be a while away."
