Resale ticket prices on one platform Seatgeek have doubled since 2019. Fans are locked out of tickets at initial on-sale and forced to turn to the secondary, in excess of 40 percent of the ticket price. Fans and consumers are often led to believe that the tickets they are buying are from the official venue box office - and end up paying more even though tickets are still available at a lower price from the actual venue. Brokers use deceptive URLs, paid advertisements, and unauthorized venues, festival, and artist imagery to make consumers think they are buying from the original market. https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/stop-ticket-sales-scams-support-small-businesses
