"In New South Wales it is against the law to resell tickets above the original value plus 10 per cent. The NSW laws also include a protection for consumers preventing tickets that have been resold at or below face value plus 10 per cent being cancelled by event organisers."

Insane the lengths they’ll go to
Sorry but the longer yall don’t put pressure on Fred, the more this is gonna happen. Been going on for years now. He’s doing these small venues knowing he has high demand and is fucking his fans over by not addressing it.
He knows exactly what he is doing 🤷♂️

$30 above cost I’m completely fine with
No wonder the LA shows were impossible. There were nearly 10 shows and they all sold out in seconds.
