Jeez is this still going on?

It could be stopped overnight by the government stating that anyone selling tickets over 80 baht will serve a mandatory 6 months in jail.

And a warning to the public to not buy them.

 

They said ''we don't sell overpriced tickets, only charge a small service fee'' .(not disclosed) .......Duh ! .......akin to the brakes failed init.

 

I don't mind the people at the local market selling for 100 baht, after all they buy at near to 80 baht.  That a big company that got their allocation much cheaper overcharges is theft and greed.  I hope they get the book thrown at them and are forced out of business.
