It’s frustrating how you see a ticket for $75 and then it becomes $130 with all of the fees.

The fees are criminal but there is no alternative.

Bought 4 tix to the LSU Army game on seatgeek. Paid $204 in fees. Ridiculous
ETA: All of those platforms seem ripe for some competitor to undercut them and charge a flat 3% fee or something.

How would the Broker make any money by selling the ticket at face value?

I sold 5 to Army for $75/each. From what I see, the cost is $375 and I had to pay 10% to seat geek so I cleared $337.50. But the buyer paid well over $100 per ticket by the time it was over with. Seat geek takes 10% from the seller and then charges the shite out of the buyer.
