Description

Ticketmaster is perhaps the prime example of this – you probably have gotten multiple submissions. They add high fees that aren’t revealed until the final step before “Complete purchase”. It costs more than my budgeted amount for tickets frequently when I purchase tickets via Ticketmaster. A friend of mine once was going to buy a ticket, only to discover that the Ticketmaster fees were more than the cost of the ticket itself – he did not purchase the ticket. You can recreate the experience by purchasing any ticket via Ticketmaster.
