What's with the postage?

Thats the 'we see you've enough dispoable income to buy a campervan' charge.

 

[rettucs]

maybe you get a free campervan with every ticket and thats the cost to ship it

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

Are the tickets through Ticketmaster?

Just price gouging I suppose. I'm normally slow to give out about ticketmaster, because ... well, charging what the market will bear is just how capitalism works. But asking for 95 quid for a ticket, and then saying it'll cost you 29 extra quid to actually get possession of the ticket you now own is a dick move

I presume an electronic ticket is free?

I bought a campervan ticket for next year's Electric Picnic, got charged TWENTY-NINE EURO for postage, and then the festival sold out. So I have an outrageously priced campervan ticket I can't sell, and no ticket for the event. This is stupid

Sure aren't there all these made up processing fees and whatnot on most Ticketmaster tickets?

Piling on dick moves is just how capitalism works
