Пишут в спаме: If you purchased tickets from www.Ticketmaster.com you may be entitled to benefits from a class action settlement.

3. What is this case about? Plaintiffs claim that some of Ticketmaster’s fees are deceptive and misleading. They claim that Ticketmaster’s description of its fees is deceptive and suggests that the fee for UPS delivery of tickets is a pass-through of the amount that UPS charged Ticketmaster for that delivery. Plaintiffs also claim that Ticketmaster's description of its fees caused customers to believe its Order Processing Fee was based on or related to Ticketmaster’s costs in processing orders, but was not based on those costs and was actually a profit generator which Ticketmaster required customers to pay.

4. What does Ticketmaster say about the case? Ticketmaster denied all of Plaintiffs’ claims, and has defended this litigation for more than ten years. In addition to denying the merits of Plaintiffs’ claims, Ticketmaster opposed Plaintiffs’ request that the Court certify this case as a class action. If the Settlement is not approved, Ticketmaster will continue to fight the case and the only way that you and the other Class Members will recover anything is if Plaintiffs ultimately win the case at trial or if the parties subsequently reach another settlement that is approved by court.

Итак, дорогие билеты у нас потому, что люди десять лет подряд занимаются вот таким позорным вздором. Результат этой деятельности:

• For each ticket order (up to 17 orders) you made from www.Ticketmaster.com between October 21, 1999 and February 27, 2013, a settlement will provide a credit of $2.25 for use on future ticket orders. You will receive an additional $5 credit towards UPS delivery of future orders, for each order where you purchased the UPS delivery option (up to 17 purchases).
• Court appointed lawyers for the Class will ask the court for up to $15 million in fees and up to $1.5 million in expense reimbursement. The court will determine the amount of any fees, and that amount will be paid by Ticketmaster. The fees will not reduce any benefits to the Class. Over the past 11 years, the lawyers for the Class have invested over $7.5 million in time, and $1.25 million in expenses in pursuing this case for the Class.

Ticketmaster, надо сказать, отвратительная компания.

2.25 за билет - интересно сколько миллионов билетов Ticketmaster продал за 15 лет ?

Дерьмовая компания надо заметить, чистый рэкет. А как я с ними намучался когда один раз между покупкой и подбором билетов у меня сменилась кредитка ...

Продавайте дешевле, сказочно разбогатеете. Чего возмущаться-то?

Да я бы предпочел подойти к кассе в театре и купить. Так нет, все отдали тикетмастеру

Видать, совсем дерьмовая компания, раз ей все отдали.

Логика утверждает, что продавать через кассу выходило бы дороже.

и сколько билетов в день должна продать тетенька в кассе, чтобы не помереть с голоду? Ей это точно удастся, с учетом того, что она продает билеты только в свой театр, а не куда угодно по всей стране? Ну, и работать она по идее должна 8 часов в день, так что придется сажать как минимум 1.5 таких продавщиц билетов, если вы не хотите, чтобы касса работала с 9 до 5.
