Ticket Master in Trouble

TicketMaster got into trouble this week when they were trying to fill people’s desires for Bruce Springsteen tickets. Apparently, when the primary market got flooded, and there weren’t anymore tickets available, customers got sent off to TicketsNow, Ticketmaster’s main connection in the secondary market. It is kind of a problem for them, because suddenly some customers were able to get the original prices, and then others were getting them on the secondary market, which includes a bit of a markup. They issued an apology to Springsteen and Co. this week after the situation had happened. An investigation by the New Jersey Attorney General continues.
