The entertainer gets only a portion of the face value of the ticket while a reseller gets many times the face value of the ticket. How is that right??
With ticket prices being what they are these days, scalpers often end up selling tickets for below face value.
And I really have no issue with scalpers, seeing as how StubHub and Ticketmaster are basically all scalpers. There's no reason the little man shouldn't get to compete.
If someone is willing to pay the price, who is anyone to say anything? It is not like anyone forcing the buyers to pay the price.
If enough people think the scalpers' price is too much, then they either lose business or have to lower the price. The market will adjusts itself, don't need anyone to interfere
