Seinfeld London Ticket Prices Are Makin' People Thirsty

What's the deal with ticket prices to see Jerry Seinfeld in London? The "lord of the manor" is performing one night at London's 20,000-capacity O2 Arena on June 3, his first UK gig since July 1998. British fans were already upset that ticket prices were high to begin with (between $108-155); but hours after the show was put on sale, the prices had already rocketed up to over a thousand dollars a piece thanks to ticket scalpers.

Seinfeld told the Guardian UK, "I'm terribly, terribly sorry...I really had to let the English promoter guide us in that, because I don't know that market that well. So I'm going to complain to him." But really, who would scoff at paying thousands to see the creator of "The Marriage Ref" in person?
