This is different to T*cketM*ster how?
These days all the tickets, or at least the best ones are sold on to resellers. They then add enormous mark-ups for handling fees etc.
The last time I used them I was charged £5 per ticket, and some other charge on top of that. Compare than from when I booked tickets directly at a regional theatre, and they apologised for adding 50p to cover the stamp and envelope!
So let worry about the resellers who do this to 99% of tickets sold, rather than the 1% on ebay
Wembley etc should not sell to touts in the first ...
