As I understand it, artists can choose to have dynamic pricing (or not). So, while TicketBast@rds are indeed such, so too are the working class heroes |
I'm not sure many of us thought otherwise. |  |

Oh, it sort of surprised me. But I'm not really up to speed on the Gallaghers post 1997ish |  | | |

It's a total and utter disgrace and should be illegal. And when i see a Labour government minister say "It is the market and how it operates." I just give up on people nowadays knowing anything about fairness or right and wrong. |  |

Not really, it means that the wealthiest will always win.
My poor old son in law had a budget as he has a big mortgage and two kids to think of. He decided that the stated price pf £300 a pair of standing tickets was ok and sat on his pooter for hours in a queue.
When he got to the front I think the price was £676 a pair, so he didn't click the button.
It's a p1ss take. |
Agreed it's price gouging at the highest level. TicketMaster is just hiding behind the "we don't set prices" schmuck.
Of course there was huge interest in these gigs, but as a punter when prices have been announced to have to queue for hours (if you aren't kicked off because you are accidentally determined to be a bot or clear your cookies which resets the queue, that ticketmaster advised users to do while in the queue!) And then finally get to buy tickets which are over 100% more expensive is an absolute joke.

At least in Ireland the resale of tickets is illegal but I presume that doesn't stop UK ticket holders listing them.
I wonder if anyone picked up tickets at ~€86 euro. The price of the standard tickets meant you would have been better off buying the premium tickets which evidently in Ireland weren't subject to "market pricing".
