It's only natural that "Promoters just want to advertise $25, not $32.50", so I think the only way how change is going to happen is by truth-in-advertising regulation that requires advertising the fees-included price, where it must be possible to actually get the thing by paying the advertised amount.

Yea, we tried very hard to promote T-I-A, but we were fought on it the whole way and at the end of the day, it was part of the downfall of our business. Promoters didn't want to list their events on our site because of that. It became a friction point for them, even though at the end of the day, the math was better for them and for the end user.
