What booking fee did ticketcorner charge?

I'm thinking about buying some tickets off here but I've contacted a couple of people and they're asking for over the face value of 195CHF.

I know you have to pay postage and booking fee but could anyone tell me what they paid through ticketcorner?

Thanks. So if you bought 2 for first show and 2 for last show would you be charged 2 x CHF 21.50?

I've been given prices that have added more than double that per ticket

I paid zero service charge. Maybe that's because I chose to download the tickets instead of having them sent out.

The cancellation thing is optional - but I live 2km from Croke Park, so...

Anyway, I paid CHF 396.00 total - about 260 euro - one ticket for each show.

PRINCE 1st SHOW
2 x CHF 195.00

PRINCE 2nd SHOW,
2 x CHF 195.00

= CHF 780.00

Service fee CHF 21.50
-----
plus Cancellation costs insurance event CHF 12.00
-----
Charge: CHF 813.50
-----

One ticket for each show should cost CHF 406.75. If they charge you more, they're making a profit.

No, I'm not whining. Tickets are only supposed to be sold through here at cost, I was just trying to work out if that was what people are doing. I don't know about you but I don't like getting ripped off. At an extra CHF 50 per ticket on top of the ticket price and charges when you want to buy 4 that is alot of money - I don't think of that as a little charge.

I've sold tickets on here myself at cost knowing that I could have gone to ebay and made money on them. Covering costs is one thing, making a profit is another.
