[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 184285, member: 1991"] It's been happening here (illegally) with Wiggles concerts. And the Wiggles have taken action to stop it. Can't remember exactly what they did, but again, it was with the cooperation of various mobs including the government. In general, the artists do not like this practice because if scalpers can get away with flogging the tickets for megabucks, then the artists could be making a lot more money. This sort of underhand thing also causes ill-feeling towards the concert, the artists etc. Also, if scalpers don't sell all their tickets, the performers are singing to a half-empty auditorium and this makes their job much harder. I hope you can find some satisfactory way out of this. Marg [/QUOTE]
