Title: *Shakes Fist* At Ticketmaster
Post by: nicole on September 08, 2003, 06:46:24 pm
As if the damn charges were not enough... they are going to start auctioning the best tickets soon!!!! That is such crap.  I hope artists start to boycott it.  That is just plain absurd.

If I become an attraction, my tickets will NOT be sold on Ticketmaster.  Direct Internet and phone orders only, plus the box office.

that's so stupid!  honestly, don't they make ENOUGH money already charging friggin $40 for lawn (including service charges)???  Can't the Vanessa people make something similar to Warehouse is for DMB fans?  We can get kickass seats and bypass the middleman (Ticketmaster).  We could call it "Wanted" or something funky like that. :wink:

That is absurd, something seems VERY wrong and illegal about that. *Shrug*

All you have to do is wait until the last 3 sceconds then place the highest bet. I do it all the time on eBay.

All that has to happen is have the fans NOT support it...   simply DON'T go to any shows until they change it...

problem is you will have idiots that keep buying tickets...  

Businesses DO respond to the consumer and if they start losing money because of this they wil respond.. so I would suggest starting a campaign against it... tell people to simply stop going to concerts where the tickets are sold through ticketmaster...
