We believe the practice of ticket touting has gotten out of control. Some people are purchasing tickets and on selling them for more than 10x face value. This can prevent genuine fans on lower budgets being to go to events, and only benefits touts and wealthy people. Tickets are appearing on resale sites the day they go on sale, indicating that the sellers had no interest in attending.
