Ticketmaster Resale

PaintyCanNed [Edit] [Delete] 04:21, 3 May '16

How is this an acceptable thing? Just bringing scalping in-house

It's a relatively new thing here (Australia), noticed it when on holidays in the US last year thought this is pretty on the nose, now it is just a given here as well

For example, there was a presale for the Cure tour this morning. GA Standing tickets are $150 or so via a different ticketing agency. They are already on Ticketmaster resale for $300!! Does my head in!

Love their disclaimer - "All tickets on Ticketmaster Resale are listed by sellers at prices they set. All purchases are 100% backed by the Ticketmaster Guarantee"
