Ticketmaster in Trouble

[pennypinch]

Ticketmaster may be in hot water right now. They have received requests from the Justice Department for information about Ticketmaster's relationship with the ticket reseller, TicketsNow.

Mainly what is in question is the Bruce Springsteen concert that is in May in New Jersey. People tried to purchase tickets to see the concert the second they went on sale but Ticketmaster said they immediately sold out. That wasn't the truth. The tickets were transferred to TicketsNow who sells tickets at a higher price.

In february a man filed a lawsuit against the ticket company for the very same reason for $407 million dollars. He cited the company is breaking the law by reselling the tickets at inflated prices.

You know, as if tickets don't cost enough. This really makes me angry. You wait forever for a show to come to your town, and It sells out? That is so cracy.
