At this point, I had accepted fees as a fact of life. You want a concert ticket, pay $5 ...maybe $10 in fees. So be it. Sucks.
But when the ticket price nearly DOUBLES when fees are added, that's just absurd! What is this damn $11 service fee for?? And a venue AND an order processing fee?? Who knew the computers handling ticket sales were so expensive to run that you must charge to use them for every single sale. Incredible.
So freaking angry at their stupid fees. My god. Was super pumped to see one of my favorite bands play a classic album from 20 years ago and was willing to travel about 2 hours to go see it (and probably still will) but damn you know how to take advantage of people when there is no other option in place other than physically getting to the venue.
