I'd like to say I'm surprised by the programme but I'm not!

Tbh, it's never hard to get tickets for an event if you know what you're doing. Anyone that buys from these companies doesn't deserve money to spend!

Is this how Warrington can afford to fail so spectacularly? :wink:

It'd be interesting to see if the same practice is carried out at Getmein, Ticketmaster's sister company - that would be worse, given they're the very source of the tickets.

I wonder if this could prompt a possible police investigation into corporate fraud. If the company are misrepresenting themselves as a ticket exchange between fans, when in reality they are selling tickets they have obtained direct from the event box office, at a huge profit?

Never had a problem getting tickets for anything I want to go to, I have no issues with these companies. Buying something from somewhere with the intention to sell it on at a higher price than you paid for it is hardly revolutionary or unusual.
