But reselling websites such as Viagogo were selling tickets to the Sydney concert for $2678, more than double the price.
In NSW, anti-scalping laws prevent the reselling of tickets for more than 10 per cent above the original price. “The process we follow is to ask the seller to provide the face value when listing and if something doesn’t appear to be in compliance we ask for evidence and remove the listing,” the company said.There’s also a high risk of consumers falling victim to scams, with CHOICE reporting previous incidents of music fans purchasing tickets from reselling websites only never to be sent them, or to be turned away once they get to the venue.
