Concert Ticket Resales Prey on Fans as Sites Charge Exorbitant Prices with No Oversight

• Ticket resale sites charging exorbitant prices, up to 3 times the original cost • Government not regulating issue, allowing scalpers to take advantage of fans • Example of teenage fan priced out of seeing favorite band Pierce the Veil • Widespread issue affecting concerts by Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, etc. • No protections for buyers - could pay and not get valid ticket or could be buying already sold ticket
