Future Lovers 3,354 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) Through Ticketmaster’s resale program yes, you can’t do this. You couldn’t for Taylor either, and can’t for Madonna. But you can on other resale sites which is part of the issue here because many people will be turned off from Ticketmaster after what happened with Taylor’s tour and will look elsewhere to buy. Scalpers will still make a profit. I am all for the government looking into Ticketmaster and breaking their monopoly, but these other resale sites escaping scrutiny doesn’t really contribute to fixing the wider problem. I’m glad artists are taking a stand though to at least make the direct from Ticketmaster process more transparent and fair. Edited February 3 by Mr Mendes 4 Link to post Share on other sites

The Madonna resale tickets on Ticketmaster are listed for way more than the original price so they aren’t enforcing this at all. Like at all. Link to post Share on other sites

Like at all. Well they are somewhat, but the problem is that with dynamic pricing at some point a ticket probably was that price or close to it and if it wasn’t then they’re being sold in sets. Sometimes with resale, sellers are allowed to sell tickets as an unbreakable pair or series rather than one ticket at a time and they’re priced as a set. But then in some cases yes they’re also not checking and not enforcing. It’s hit and miss. Link to post Share on other sites
