Tickets for comedian Peter Kay’s two Scottish gigs were being punted by touts for more than ten times the face value price on resale sites within minutes of going on sale.
Fans queuing on official site, Ticketmaster, on Saturday were told there were 150,000 people waiting in front of them, all desperate to see the Car Share funny man at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro.
But almost immediately after release at 10am, ticket touts were trying to fleece fans by selling tickets for as much as £469 on secondary ticket site Viagogo.
