Rejected petition Make it illegal for concert tickets to be resold for excessive prices

I have tried to buy concert tickets on various occasions but each time they have sold out in a matter of minutes. Then within 15 minutes of the tickets originally going on sale they are being resold at double or even triple the original price.
