“Secondary Ticket Vendor” – so not what Trent Reznor’s post was about yesterday?

How is this different to ticket touts? Trent Reznor was having a go at this sort of thing this week.

its no different than touts, in fact it just means the touts can use this site instead of harassing you outside the venue.. £123 per standing ticket for the 02. shocking!

having said that I used seatwave.com (similar site) for tickets for metallica in Sheffield. We only had to pay £5 over face value, but the service was excellent.

but… its still touting

Yeah, some people use these sites to offload unwanted tickets at near enough face value others just take the pi$$.

It’s not just the ’seller’ in most cases trying to fleece fans – check out viagogo’s handling fees and VAT (didn’t know you paid VAT on ticket only??)
