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 »
"True fans of musical artists or sporting events come in all income brackets. "
"As a frequent concert goer, I am appalled by this. We need to put a stop to it, before it starts!"
" Not right to not let the people that aren't rich not to be able to enjoy their favorite entertainers seeing them close up! There's no reason for this greediness for more money, no good reason at all , not right at all. The little folks should have every"
"What a bunch of crap. We don't need more scalpers."
"Just an appalling, rude and blatant attempt by Ticketmaster to rape their captive customer base. Shame on you!"
"This is COMPLETELY unfair. If I have to pay a small fortune to have a seat in the first few rows to see a favorite artist, what will happen is that I will be able to afford to attend fewer concerts. Ultimately, my disposable income is a fixed amount, an"
"The only one that wants to get rich from this is Ticket Master.. They could care less about the consumer or the band.. The CEO of ticket master needs a reality check..the amount of tickets sold by ticket broker is a very low percent of all tickets sold to"
"I disagree with your plans to auction tickets online."
"I can hardly afford the cost of tickets now, and I feel it is unfair that just becasue you have a few extra dollors to blow, you will be allowed to have the best seats in the house. This is sooo wrong, and by doing this you are forcing us to go to a brok"
"This is ridiculous..we already have a hard enough time getting good seats to concerts. I, for one, will not be attending anymore shows at big venues if this comes to pass."
"Ticketmaster is a monopoly"
"This clearly is the wrong thing for ticketmaster to start doing. Some of the most loyal fans aren't able to attend shows, and now this makes it even harder for them to get the chance. Honestly, this sucks!.....Not everyone has enough money to spend over 2"
"This is ridiculous. Why don't we just give Iraq to E-bay while we're at it? Ooh, and the Oval Office too. E-bay is DEFINITELY going to be ruling the world soon. In seriousness...By following through with your current plans, you will be robbing the peo"
"This is price gouging at it's worst!"
"Please do not follow through with this change in policy."
"This is total ludicrous to have tickets go the highest bidder. That means, THE SAME PEOPLE GO TO THESE CONCERTS/SHOWS. UNFAIR!!!!!!"
"This is a very bad idea!"
"I feel if this goes through, that it will limit the number of people that will be able to go to concerts. "
"This is ridiculous. We don't want anymore schemes like this! This does not prove that the "biggest fans" have the best seats, it proves that the RICHEST fans get the best seats! What's going to happen to the fans who got stuck with nosebleed seats befo"
"This is an outrage! Ticketmaster at least still held some respectability in my mind until now. I always refused to purchase tickets from brokers, scalpers and Ebay in deference to honest practices. Apparantly my options are now limited to the venue itself"
"DO NOT GO THREW WITH THIS"
"i PURCHASE TICKETS THRU TICKETMASTER AT LEAST 10 TIMES PER YEAR. noT IF YOU GO THRU WITH THIS IDEA."
"Seems so very unfair - being a fan doesn't mean being richer than the next guy - all should be entitled to a good /great seat at a fair equal price. Thank you"
"Its a shame that ticketmaster holds such power and makes the ordinary fan feel powerless and must pay these outrageous prices for tickets that should be affordable to all. Not everyone is rich and many of us want to go to concerts but can't because of "
"totally outrageous, can't believe you're even considering this!!!"
