    Anybody seen this site?

    It's owned by Ticketmaster but it's basically a Touting site.
    How can they actually sanction this? The prices that some of the tickets are going for is ridiculous.

    Disturbing isn't doing it justice, it's scandalous. TM fast becoming a cartel, oh wait they always have been :rolleyes:

    Tried getting tickets today from TM but they were all sold out bar the dozens they had on this partner site for three times the face value.

    So many things wrong with this I don't even know where to start? I'd say what happens is some tout buys off the ticketmaster website then goes straight over to getmein.com and puts it up for sale at 5 times the price!?
    I'll stick with toutless.com and the likes thanks

    (5) Does Ticketmaster hold back tickets to sell on GET ME IN! instead?
    No. Ticketmaster acts as an agent on behalf of its promoter and venue clients. They do not control the allocation of tickets. Ticketmaster’s clients determine the allocation of their tickets and how their tickets are priced.
    Oh really :rolleyes:

    This leaves a bad taste in the mouth...
