than buy tickets and get scammed. Part of the fees are protecting the seller against this. Just know when shopping that the final price will be 20-30 percent more than the ticket price.

I've decided to buy tickets from a "No Additional Fees" website on principle.

As far as I can tell they all give you the option to see the price with fees.

A lot of them don't until you have all your information loaded in. Annoying.

I agree. it's misleading and should be false advertising.

When I've sold tix, TickPick had lower fees than either StubHub or SeatGeek

but waaaay less traffic so chance of selling them is much less. Give and take.

No. The fees are irrelevant to me. Change your SeatGeek settings to only show final price. Easy.

you can also do this on Stubhub. People are just kinda basic I guess.

I buy tickets on many of these apps weekly. I have zero issues.

Of note, I have also had zero issues as well

It’s a user error if you aren’t seeing the final price up front in the apps.

TCuz

I see the full price on their site/app, again I think you misunderstood

Zoobieman

Sep 5, 8:45am

Right, so it’s user error. Go straight into the apps. Don’t use whatever search you are using. Done.

Let me guess Apple's green bubble vs blue bubble is also user error.

Secondary market is much cheaper than through SMU right now. So whatever

I am fine paying fees, just show me the total price upfront.
