No need, click bait headline.

"[They said] 'someone else has it, we don’t know who, we can’t check or track who has your ticket'," the 21-year-old said. "All they could do was issue me a refund, I have essentially had my ticket stolen from me."

After failing to get the situation sorted and her ticket reinstated by Ticketek's customer service, Rebecca went online to try to get answers on Sunday. This is about when the company was finally able to ensure she still had a ticket, despite apparently being told otherwise. "We have now reached out to Rebecca to confirm," the spokesperson said.

In a statement to Yahoo on Monday, Ticketek said the situation had been rectified and other customers needn't worry about any such glitches in their online marketplace.

You get your money back, sure, but the company has also profited off the theft of the ticket, so I think a reasonable jury/judge would find you're owed some money for that profit and maybe some more so they think twice about doing it again. You'd probably be able to take them to small claims court and get an easy settlement for the equivalent of upgraded seats on the secondary market.

Limited view tickets were $1500 a piece when TS came to Levi stadium. Bonkers

You can get a week long hotel stay and food included for $659?

I bought tickets like 4 months in advance for an event. Like a week before the event, I get an email that they don't have my seats, and offered tickets a section over. I was actually relieved because prices had dropped, so I just said no thanks, I'll take a refund, and bought better, cheaper seats.

I mean... I wouldn't do it. But I have spend insane money on other stuff I feel like it's a not that crazy amount. And to each it's own....

The fees they charge as part of it... that's another thing that I agree they are bastards.

I went to go see Pantera and Lamb of God on Saturday and all of the 4 sites I checked had at least a $30 fee per ticket, with zero explanation of what that fee was for. The tickets were priced from $60 on up and then once you select a ticket they slap on the $30 fee! Parking was also $45, and beer was $20.

How do you define gouging? Last I checked, even with these high ticket prices, most of her shows are sold out. How does that differ from basic supply and demand?

They're not cheap if you get them first hand but they're not insane considering who we're talking about. Bands like The Eagles, Rolling Stones,etc were commanding $150+ tickets two decades ago. But good luck getting a non-resale ticket, between bots and the companies themselves buying the tickets solely to mark up for resale it's nearly impossible to get a ticket at face value.

I remember seeing nosebleed Metallica seats for like $200. Instead got a VIP festival weekend ticket for $200 with Metallica doing 2 shows that covid cancelled! 🤣

It’s me, hi, I’m the problem, it’s me

Bruh $200 for a show is still an absolute fleecing.

I guarantee that there is entertainment that you spend money on that other people find foolish.

I think the "full" here is the one who can't fathom that others value things differently from themself.

Also, her money*. It's in the summary

The average ticket price for her tour 2023 was 1088$

Whoever pays prices like this is completely lost
