I don't see one hidden charge. I see two very obviously disclosed charges. The two questionable fees are fully disclosed in an easy to read manner and combined, they total about a 33% upcharge over the rest of the transaction. Not exciting for the consumer but it's all laid out for you and you can make your decision whether to buy with every bit of information about the charges available for your review. So I don't necessarily see a problem with this. If you don't want to pay the fees, don't buy a ticket. You get to choose.

Alternatively, some other sites sell something and then provide "questionable fees" that total +/- 300% upcharge over the intended transaction, that are not fully disclosed in an easy to read manner.

I know nothing about TM but I'm assuming they gotta make their money somewhere and that's where they make it. If the fees got too crazy, it should open the door to competitors to take some market share.

At least it doesn't say "Mastercard holders are sadly unable to take advantage of our special "Convenience Fees", please use Visa."

No hidden charges. Just a part of the ticket buying process and it's too bad that TicketMaster has so much of the market. Their fees do add up with you are buying a lot of tickets.

My phone bill is $21 a month. The taxes and fees add another $17. And thats just the most recent time I checked. It'll be upside down soon.

I love it when people bitch about selling tickets for face value. its impossible as no matter where you buy them, you get raped in charges and fees.

i saw clapton and jeff beck earlier this year. didn't cost quite that much but up here (ottawa/montreal) most concerts aren't through ticketmaster but independants.

You do have two alternatives.

1. Go buy them at the box office.

2. DON'T PAY FOR THEM! The reason they charge that much is that they know saps will actually pay it. If people spoke with their wallets and stopped paying those absurd fees then they would stop charging them. Why does it cost $10 for a beer at a sporting arena? Because people still buy them!

Yes, the prices are outrageous, but if you subsequently purchased that ticket, then you are part of the problem.

Sorry but I used to play in a band and tour and fully understand this. You sure dont bitch when you are stealing music and downloading it for free do you? Higher ticket prices and these charges have only come up the last 7-8 years as a way to try and actually make back some of the billions of dollars lost every year to illegal downloads.

At least it looks like a real ticket. Buying a fake ticket that cannot be used to get through the door will make you feel even worse. Good luck.
