Ticketmaster
To: Ticketmaster CEO and president John Pleasants In a recent news report on CBSNews.com, it was reported that Ticketmaster has plans to later this year begin auctioning off the best concert seats... continue reading »
"This is completely unfair to auction the best seats off to the highest bidder! I am completely outraged to hear of this! Its bad enough that we are forced to pay their ridiculous service fees, but now we lose our chance of getting the best seats to the hi"
"This is insane! Totaly not fair!! Ticketmaster is insane for doing this! "
"None"
"If ticketmaster implements the auction, I will never be able to afford another concert ticket & I'm one who lives for the music. Please don't do this to us."
"I find this truely appauling. What is ticketmaster going to use the profits for. I hope that the artist won't allow this to happen."
"Ticketmaster, you yourselves are turning into scalpers if you start auctioning off tickets!!! Your not worried about scalpers! All your worried about is making an extra buck!"
"Richest fans are not the biggest fans."
"I think that this is robbery and an unlawful practice by a monopoly that should be restricted. Why should those who can't afford top dollar be denied access to concert seats?"
"Why don't you just stop this ridiculous idea now. Release a statement that you were wrong. I know the artists that I go to see try to keep their ticket prices down so their fans can afford to go out and see them. First you give first shot at tix to Americ"
"This is NOTHING MORE THAN SCALPING ... which is ILLEGAL IN MY STATE ... I may be able to afford to spend whatever I want to in an effort to see my favorite artists but not everyone has this luxury. Pure insanity ... "
"This is nothing more than ticket scalping."

"If this goes into effect I will no longer be able to attend any concerts. Please reconsider!"
"That is totally wrong. I will not be buying anymore tickets from ticketmaster. People can't afford those high ticket prices and it is discrimination to sell them to the highest bidder."
"This just goes to show how, in this economy, the corporate world continues to feed off the average, hard working people through profits. And, to add insult to injury, Ticketmeaster pass the cost of this service onto ticker buyers."
"You ,Ticketmaster,are already ripping true fans off with your high ticket prices and service charges, how could you even consider such an idea!?"
"Please keep in mind the thousands of music lovers who might not be able to afford to purchase tickets through this auctioning system."
"This is a joke"
"Please don't keep us from getting tickets to concerts by auction them off to the highest bidder "
"Concerts are about music, not who has the most money to shell out for good seats. If a sixteen year old girl waited in line for twelve hours to see a band she loves, shouldn't she get to priority over the thirty year old with the six figure income? "
"This is outrageous. My husband and I both work full time jobs to support our family. Concerts are our refuge and now we won't be able to afford them?!"
"Please don't do this. It is the fans that have made entertainers rich... keep it affordable for us."
"NO!"
"If you pursue this form of ticket prices, I will not purchase ticket any longer from Ticketmaster. If you want to compete with the scalpers, I'll buy mine from the scalpers- or not at all! "
"ITS f*ckin bull $hit, as if we dont pay enouigh for concert tics as it is and then add there fu*kin ser charges to it and now we gotta bid on the Fu*kers!?!?! Johm Pleasents can suck on my hairy A$$"
