In a shocking turn of events, a class-action lawsuit has been filed against the popular ticketing site, “Faux StubHub”. The suit alleges that the company knowingly inflated prices in “bad faith”, causing undue financial strain on unsuspecting Canadian concert-goers.
The lawsuit, which has been dubbed “The Great Canadian Ticket Robbery”, includes dozens of plaintiffs who claim that they were charged exorbitant fees for “VIP” tickets that turned out to be nothing more than standard admission. In addition, the suit claims that Faux StubHub consistently sold tickets above face value, despite promising “fair market prices”.
One plaintiff, who wished to remain anonymous, recounted her experience with Faux StubHub: “I thought I was getting a great deal on front-row seats to see the Biebs, but when I showed up to the concert, I realized that I had paid twice the face value! It was a total scam.”
Another plaintiff, who attended a Drake concert last year, claimed that he was charged a “convenience fee” of $50 just for printing his tickets at home. “I mean, how inconvenient can it be to press print on your home printer?” he exclaimed.
Faux StubHub has yet to comment on the lawsuit, but insiders speculate that they may be planning a counter-suit against the Canadian government for allowing such frivolous lawsuits to exist. In the meantime, Canadian concert-goers are advised to be wary of any ticket prices that seem too good to be true – they probably are.
