Bonds underwear takes brutal swipe at Taylor Swift over ticket sales to her Australian Eras Tour
Taylor Swift is coming to Australia soon for her Eras Tour.
But for many fans, getting tickets is a nightmare, and that thought is not lost on underwear brand Bonds.
The Australian label for all things underwear took a cheeky swipe at the American pop star when it announced a sale on its own site.
‘Unlike Eras Tour’s ticketing system, we don’t let you queue up on our website for our sale. Go inside! Cyber Monday ends tonight!’ read the comment.
It comes after resale tickets for her upcoming Australian Eras Tour officially became available on Friday.

Swifties had the chance to purchase tickets already purchased by others who no longer needed them through the official Ticketek Marketplace Lounge.
However, fans should prepare for long waits as hundreds of thousands of Aussies flock to the venue.
When visiting the Marketplace Lounge, fans are greeted with the message: ‘Ticket availability is therefore dependent on fans submitting their tickets for resale.
“Ticketek’s Fan to Fan marketplace is up and running. You will soon be redirected to the Marktplaats site.’

The resale site opened at 10am and will be active until Friday, December 15.
There is no clear prediction on the number of tickets that will be sold on the platform, as this is limited to those who have already purchased a ticket and no longer need their ticket.
Due to strict scalping laws, fans are not required to pay significantly more than the original price of a ticket, as they cannot be sold for more than ten percent of their original purchase price.
When they went on sale earlier this month, ticket prices ranged from $79.90 for the cheapest seats to $379.00 for first class A Reserve spots.

On the resale platform, the highest regular ticket price will be $416.90.
For those looking at a VIP package, prices range from a minimum of $385.90 to a hefty $1374.90 for a single pass.
Fans who manage to purchase a resold ticket will undergo a reissue process, during which they will receive new barcodes and personalized data that will invalidate the original ticket.
Ticket delivery takes place in two ways: uploaded to Marketplace accounts or sent via email.
