$9 more. I bet that's the "partner" fee and CD shipping charge. Everybody gotta get their cut.

The sad reality is that as a lot of people don't pay for music now the cost of live shows has rocketed. Promoters are largely to blame also...remember nobody puts a gun to your head and forces you to buy tickets. If you think it's unreasonable then skip it

I wouldn’t mind higher ticket prices, its the Ticketmaster fees I have a problem with. I think its unreasonable. On the other hand I’ll pay whatever they want me to pay for GA. I’ll always go.
I personally think that VerifiedFan costs a lot more time and money so thats where part of this goes to.
Originally posted by pleasegone:Looks like I have some reading deficiencies. Seems I was knocked down to the Innocence group, so I get second tier shot at tickets. Oh woe is me. Anyways I would assume the fees are just making some executive at Ticket SlaveMaster richer, or somebody at One Nation, LIve Nation, One Direction or whoever. The fees are unreasonable and we are supposed to be like cattle and deal with it. Sucks that our friends in Europe don't at least get the free cd...but oh well.

For us its the other way around, we get presale codes with a CDreason I bought 3

Don't forget the code is for residents of selected European countries only! (Living in a wrong country, I'll get neither a free CD for the ticket I purchased in the USA nor the code for the album I ordered in Europe...)

I know that’s why I’m saying I hope it’s done better. I think it’s a different system
for starters as verified fan isn’t in place over here but there could still be issues regarding whether a subscription gets you a code or not.
Callers to U2Com are being told this presale process is like a lotto and not everyone will get codes - that it is random.
