Ticketmaster and Gaga Presales

Ticketmaster is lowkey a scam.

1) Me and three others all got in the queue for 3 separate shows and it told all of us that there were 2000 people ahead of us. I know Gaga is popular but there is no way there were that many people trying to buy tickets. It's just not believable.

2) They need to find out a better way to do the "little monster presale" because just putting in your email into a website does not mean you're a fan.

3) The fact that I couldnt buy just one ticket cause it would "leave one seat stranded" is ridiculous. I'm sure someone will buy that one seat, why punish me?

I've already seen Enigma so it's not heartbreaking for me, but the way these tickets are being sold is just downright unfair.

When the tickets predictably sell for up to 10x their price, you'd best believe EVERYBODY is trying, regardless of if they're fans or not. I don't see how arena shows can sell out instantly but 2,000 people trying to get Enigma tickets is a shock

100% agree. Madonna innovated a new way for fans to REGISTER for tickets instead of just regular codes and it went over much better.

That's a rule across almost every ticket seller for any type of event.

Tell us something new :huntyga:

I've checked out almost all the shows this last 45 minutes and made screenshots. After half an hour almost all the 2019 shows only had "Verified Resale tickets" left, whatever the **** those are.

And for the exact same places, the prices weren't even the same on different dates.
This was most clear for Enigma GA:
23 Oct -541 USD
25 Oct - 688,45 USD
2 Nov - 925 USD
etc.

I feel sorry for you guys obviously I was not gonna go to enigma but the same happened when Bruno came to Barcelona in 2017 and I was very heartbroken that I wouldn't be able to see him (because all the scalpers were selling the tickets at 300e :crossed:)

October 2019 dates are not new legs. It has been sold out. Those are resales prices. 

Go for May 2020, fam. Those are new legs.

I hate when that happens. I’ve looked into tickets for shows before and the highest seat furthest from the stage costs twice as much as the average price for front row. Scalpers have scammed so many people out of seeing their favorite artists. Hopefully you get to see him next time around!

Funny how it allows you to purchase the $1000+ Platinum tickets but the Fan Club Pre-Sale standard prices are impossible to add to order :smh:

ARTPOP, you’ll always have my heart.

I'm with you here, this is ridiculous... I considered going back in May, but from one date to another, ticket prices change so freaking much, and it's just a pre-sale, how the hell do they justify that? I think it's borderline illegal how they're selling tickets in the US - here in France, on official websites, a ticket price remains the same until they're gone, there's no resale bullshit.
