Last week, Harry Styles' fans rejoiced when he announced that he would be performing in an exclusive "one night only" show in New York as tickets were priced at a shocking $25. However, angry supporters are now complaining as there are scalpers taking advantage of the low price.
According to Newsweek, Stylers are enraged at Ticketmaster and scalpers for reselling the singer's concert tickets for thousands of dollars.
The show will be in honor of his upcoming album titled "Harry's House," which will be released on May 20.

The outlet noted that Ticketmaster used a system called "Verified Fan" for concertgoers to have access to tickets instead of resellers so fans can get passes at face value.
In order for this to work, buyers would have to put in their information to get a code for sale. If they fail to do so, they will be added to a waiting list.
Passes for the event were initially priced at $25, but since the website went live, prices could go high, from $600 to $11,000.
Many fans are now rallying on social media as the Verified Fan system is not working in their favor.
"To everyone who bought harry ONO tickets just to resell them for over $1,000 i hope you step on a million legos, both sides of your pillow are warm, and you never find love," one expressed.
As of this writing, Ticketmaster has not addressed the issue.
Fortunately for fans who never got the chance to buy tickets for Styles' one-night-only show, concertgoers could still attend his highly-anticipated "Love On Tour."
The singer has announced its North American leg, including a ten-night residency at the Madison Square Garden in New York City between August 28 and September 21.
After his shows at the Big Apple, he will also have ten shows at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, California, between October 31 and November 15 before visiting cities like Toronto, Chicago, and Austin.
Styles will be bringing guest stars like Jessie Ware, Gabriels, Blood Orange, Madi Diaz, and Ben Harper.
Aside from his North American tour, the singer will also visit different global cities like Hamburg, Rio De Janeiro, Cologne, Madrid, Bogota, and more.
Special guests will be Wolf Alice, Mitski, Arlo Parks, and Koffee for his world tour.
