How the fuck is this my problem, ticketmaster?!

Apparently they won't sell you seats if you leave a single seat next to your order. Fuck this shitty monopoly
Ticketmaster is truly the bastard spawn of satan and corporate greed, an evil so foul and repugnant that merely speaking its name sends chills through all that hear it and sends children running to hide under their covers.
Someone in a different thread told me if you open up a separate browser and put the single ticket in your cart you can buy the seats you want, haven't tried it yet but I definitely will next time I have the misfortune of using ticketmaster.
Good idea. And from the picture they clearly have single seats in a row left to sell, so someone managed to do it.
Alternatively, try incognito/porn mode
Ok....but why?
If Mark Cuban has the resources to take on the drug industry by creating a service to get reasonably priced medicine, can we ask him to make a new TicketMaster that doesn't rip everyone off?
Won't work. Livenation owns the majority of the major venues in the US.
I have a friend who did this, quitting their job for ticketmaster to run it. If you run a venue, get in touch and I can link you guys up, they have a list of clients, testimonials and competitive pricing, with an ethos based around consumer-fair practices.
Bought there a ticket for the first time and oh boy.
How can it be, that they have a centralized login but can't share a ticket and need to log in to the specific country page.
You already have my login, just show me the damn ticket as "Tickets in country [XYZ]". (eyeroll)That's started to become standard practice for anywhere with seating. Ticketmaster may implement it, but it isn't the only company doing so.
It's the case on every cinema's website I've bought a ticket in the last decade.
Yea i bought a ticket to something recently straight from the venue's website and they had the same rule.
I'd consider reaching out to the states AG.
There's no way it's legal to sell a product but force certain instances of the sale to double their purchase.
Imagine these were bottles of water? It's either a unit for sale or it isn't. You can't pick and choose where it's convenient.
Further, there's no way shareholders would want to see you being denied an opportunity to spend your money.
This is fishy.
I swear I'd buy tickets to anything if the sellers tagine was "we're not ticketmaster/livenation"
It's your problem because you have no choice, they want to see if you will buy the lone seat :)
The clostest cinema to me introducted seat checking during covid (where they made shure there is an extra seat free). After covid they tweaked the same feature to make sure mo extra seats are free.
Next step is you will have to buy the entire row for 3 or more people
There's nothing mild about Ticketbastards.
Some of us go to concerts alone. It's not that crazy to leave a single seat open.
Not that that should ever be the consumer's problem anyway.
Sketchy ass link is sketchy
I don't know who to use for image hosting these days since imgur went to shit

Finally, someone who can clean my dirty boots with his tongue
Oh noes, the giant corporation might miss out on tens of dollars after charging exorbitant fees! Maybe they shouldn't leave seats in odd numbers at all then.
WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE MULTIBILLION-DOLLAR MEGACORP'S PROFITS!!!
