Seinfeld tickets tout for £1,000

...minutes after they go on sale

Touts are already demanding more than £1,000 for tickets for Jerry Seinfeld’s only UK concert, just half an hour after the box office opened.

Ticket exchange site Seatwave is offering six tickets close to the stage of London’s O2 Arena at £1,098; with many more above the £400 mark.

There are still plenty of official tickets available elsewhere in the venue, although even these have a face value of £100, plus an £11 booking fee. That’s roughly twice the price of a seat to see him in the States.

The gig on June 3 is Seinfeld’s first British date in 12 years. He sold out in 1998 despite clashing with the World Cup final.
