How can I tell if these PAX tickets are authentic?

[cheesystick]

Hello,

I am not sure which forum to list this on, but I am looking to buy a PAX ticket off Craigslist. Now I have heard of people getting ripped off buying counterfeit tickets. How can I be sure that said tickets are the real deal? What kind of things should I look for?

The ticket is going to be $150. I known that it isn't a very good deal, but I don't have a real choice here. Considering how close the show is, I might be able to talk him down, but I'll probably end up paying his asking price. Any help on making sure I buy a real ticket, (not one printed on a cracker - i.e. old Simpsons reference), would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
Chris

Imo, I'd read around and ask here:

Only way to be sure.
