Many of us have tried and failed to get tickets for events lately. Despite being online and searching for tickets at the earliest release date, they are shown as sold out within seconds, yet are available on Ticketmasters Reseller site at twice the face value. This is even happening for large-capacity venues such as Wembley.

As Ticketmaster hold a monopoly on ticket sales since the merger of Livenation, we are owed an explanation into how these tickets are selling out within 3-5 seconds. To validate that bots are not being used there should also be an investigation into users who are listing them on GetMeIn within such a short time frame.
