Ultra Ticket Prices

WHAT
THE
FUCK?!

i was super bored just now (should be studying) so i went to the site for shits and giggles. $129.95 GA tickets. okay, way more than the $40 i used to pay years back, but whatever its two days, so i clicked on the link. now a $38.05 service charge pops up. wtf? almost $40??? are you fucking crazy?! thats more than a fourth of the ticket cost being tacked on and almost the price of the entire ticket i paid for ultras 4, 5, and 6. okay, maybe i paid 50 for 6. i cant remember. but atleast for 5 i got a free tshirt with purchase. so back to this year, and they add a $11.95 shipping fee. TWELVE DOLLARS for a piece of paper to be shipped?! are you kidding me? total (for ONE ticket) comes out to $179.95. so this leads me to my question and the point of this thread...

WHO IS DUMB ENOUGH TO PAY THAT?*

*above question is not intended for those too young to properly party during wmc. that can be understood. maybe.

please. i need some reasoning behind it. i refuse to go to ultra (unless its free), especially at bicentennial. but this just does not make any fucking sense to me. seriously. wow. like WOW! i cant believe it. i feel so bad for those actually paying it that the next time i see an ultra kid promoting on south beach i think ima kick him in the nuts (even though its not his fault).

this has got to be the gayest festival in the world. seriously. sorry everyone. i just had to make a comment about this. thats just INSANE!

dont count on it. unless you yourself get your ticket from the ultra people because you did something for them, it never works.

I'm thankful for Ultra, personally - it does a great job filtering out the proletariat from the good shows.

Does UMF not chip their tickets overseas? Just tried to order and says please enter a valid US shipping zip code
