Maddening New Vegas Fees

Correct, when StubHub says a ticket is $50, it's $50. Nothing's added to it.
That's why you buy beer downtown and not on the strip...

It is but it isn't. Your 10% buyers fee is included in the price as well as the delivery charge. It's if/when you buy more that five tickets in a single transaction, you only pay the delivery fee on the first five tickets. That's where the "discount" comes in.

As an example, two Cardinals-Yankees tickets will cost me $131.60 ($65.80 each). The actual ticket costs $58 and the other $7.80 are the fees that are charged. Now if I were to buy 10 tickets for the same game they would cost me $650. The actual ticket is still $58 each but they are only charging me $70 to do the transaction. I know it's only saving me $8, but hey...... that's almost a small beer.

Whatever these greed merchants are charging it is too much.

Are the hookers adding a 10% entertainment tax for their services as well?


Don't give them any ideas about the bathrooms.I remember many years ago some department stores used to have locks on their stall doors and you had to pay to use it.Would not surprise me a bit if the casinos eventually tried something like this.Or even the airlines for that matter.
bbking, if SWA went for a head charge...you would have to use a credit card since they are cashless! Those quarter charges could really mount up on a long flight.

Scotsman's prayer in a pay toilet:
Here I sit,
broken hearted.
Paid to shit,
but only farted.

LOL.Especially for us old timers with poor muscle control.
I'd be complaining to Obama about this.
Why,is he responsible for muscle control?
