Scalping isn't legal everywhere isn't in Queensland - your not allowed to sell over 10% of the value.

Wheelchair seating should be at everyshow, I know other BJ fans who have used it, seems very odd there isn't any for Australia.

although they are technically doing nothing wrong, i believe it's wrong that scalpers buy tickets purely to make a profit and take away the chance for a true loving fan to have their spot at the show, instead, having to pay a larger sum of money (bc it isn't expensive enough) just to be there.

That's pretty much what anyone does when they buy an item and sell it to make a profit. Fast food restaurants even do it - McDonalds buys cookies in bulk and sells them to make a profit.

I can see why so many would be angry over it, though.

From what I have seen there doesn't appear to be that many great tickets on ebay and not as much as LH. So the high prices and the fact tickets were so hard to get might have helped in regard to scalpers, but doesn't help fans much lol
