Fans bitching, moaning and whining about having to pay fair market prices for the best seats at Prince concerts in the United States is a long-standing Prince fan tradition and makes great entertainment.

And what better place than prince.org to keep it organized in one thread of full-out cheapskate bitchery, moanery and whinery.

Enjoy!

Sticky, Mods?

Let's kick this off:

How come other people get to sit in front of me just because they got more money? I can't help being poor!

Yeah but hey!

Let's not forget the American dream!

Y'all can become rich!

Yay!

Paying market prices for tickets is one thing, when Ticketbastard holds them back and they are already on broker sights for a lot more that face value and were never made available to the public, then something is terribly wrong. Monopoly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My issue isn't so much the prices because I feel like if I can't afford it I'm just not gonna go, my complaint is the way ticktmaster has this monoploy on tickets AND the fact that they refuse to allow you to buy at the box office like we used to be able to do back in the day. The "extra fees" are ridiculous because basically they can charge whatever extra fees they want because you basically have no other options. Ridiculous.

i'm not complaining. i thought the prices were reasonable and fair and i got great seats to all 5 shows. now the vip tickets and what scalpers are charging for tickets online and on ebay are insane!
