O/T The campaign against box office ticket prices

This is a campaign to limit the extortionate fees that ticket sellers add to the price of tickets - be it concert, theater or football matches.
These companies buy in huge numbers of tickets at a marked down price and sell them at face value with a huge tarrif for selling them.

For example - if you go into a shop with a credit card and purchase something all you pay os the price you see it at - yet ticket prices have credit card handling charges attached to them amongst other things
