i guess maybe contract between 張敬軒 and ncix really had 1 hr in it
but that is different between ncix and us when we bought the tickets... they did not tell us that it was going to be 1 hr.
the argument in contract law often uses a rational person's perspective:
would a rational person be indifferent in paying the $58-$168 if he/she was told about the 1hr concert? in other words, are you still going to buy the ticket if ncix/media one/fido told you it was 1hr at the price?
if not, then you can argue in a court of law, that the seller withheld important information that would have otherwise changed a rational decision for the buyer to enter into the contract
but this point is hard to prove in court because each buyer (ticketholders) each have different price expectancies. also, ncix/media one/fido can argue that costs of production are higher, which justifies high price.
i think it will be hard to get refund from a legal point of view because both sides can have good arguments...
'refund' isn't that simple... there may have been people who actually enjoyed the concert and felt satisfied about the price that they paid. should they get a refund? if 90% enjoyed the concert, and 10% didn't, should they get a refund? if you catch my drift, it is difficult to impose a refund policy because almost everybody will go for refund, and will set dangerous precedent to future concerts where audience demands refund for the sake of money
so...if refund is out of the question...what should we do?
we should send a message to future concert production companies that vancouver is just like any other city that wants what they paid for
p.s.
i guess i learned something from law class |
