As Paul mentioned previously in this thread, the fees on any purchase are present for a few different reasons; our main focus is to provide a positive buying experience for our Fans.

The fees help us maintain the site functionality and that it is up and running at all times. They also go toward our Customer Excellence team to ensure that we're here if you have any questions or need any assistance. We truly appreciate your business and if you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me or any of the other community moderators for assistance. Why exactly to they vary based on event and price? How would those things cause variation in the amount of money necessary to maintain your customer excellence team or provide insurance on tickets?
