Rugby bosses have been accused of betraying fans after failing to stop official ticketing partner ­Ticketmaster from selling briefs at inflated prices on their secondary sale sites.

Resale forum Seatwave are offering two tickets worth £100 each for ­Scotland’s Calcutta Cup clash against England for a staggering £2125.98.

That’s more than 10 times their face value – with Seatwave raking in a £325.98 booking fee.

The same site have two £95 tickets for our Six Nations opener at ­Murrayfield v France on sale for £1417.98.

Another Ticketmaster-owned site GetMeIn! are also allowing touts to cash in – offering two £100 tickets for the England match for six-and-a-half times their worth at £1297.96.

The Scottish Rugby Union have ­previously come under fire for inflated prices and ditched an official link-up with ­controversial site Viagogo in ­September – but ticket tout expert Reg Walker thinks they’ve let down fans by failing to ban ­Ticketmaster from listing ­Murrayfield tickets on their secondary sale sites.

Walker, from The Iridium ­Consultancy, said: “This is very much a conflict of interest and I’m surprised the SRU didn’t use their leverage to get Ticketmaster to agree not to list ­Scotland tickets on their secondaries.

“Ticketmaster’s managing director Andrew Parsons actually stated at a Fan Fair Alliance conference that where event organisers request they do not list, they do not list.

“Iron Maiden asked them not to list – they didn’t list. Other artists have struck a similar agreement.

“So the SRU have let down fans here.”

Heavy metal band Iron Maiden clamped down on secondary sales ­during their UK tour in May using a paperless ticket initiative.

It required fans to show photo ID plus the credit or debit card they’d bought the tickets with before they were allowed into the concert.

Demand for tickets for Scotland’s two Six Nations home games against France on February 11 and England on ­February 24 is high.

Walker added: “Ticketmaster own Seatwave and Get MeIn! So how can the SRU allow them to get away with fans being ripped off like this? ­Ticketmaster cannot, on the the one hand, sell tickets with very stringent terms and conditions attached over resale – then, at the same time, facilitate a breach of those terms and conditions. It’s a nonsense.

“The SRU need to say to Ticketmaster, ‘Do you mind not allowing listings on your secondary sites’. If they don’t, they’re failing their supporters.”

Viagogo are also cashing in on ­Scotland tickets. They have two briefs against England on sale for £6500.95.

The site does not list the face value of the tickets – ­breaching the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which makes that a legal ­requirement. The tickets are on sale for £2420 each – with Viagogo ­adding a £1650 “VAT and booking” fee.

Viagogo were also flogging two £95 tickets for the France game for £1423.59.Again, the face value was not listed.

An insider insisted the SRU would be­ ­speaking to Ticketmaster about ­removing tickets from their secondary ticket sale sites.

They said the SRU are ­looking into launching their own not-for-profit ticket resale site for fans who buy briefs then genuinely can’t use them.

The source said: “There are ­ongoing conversations with ­Ticketmaster on that subject. We take a very firm few on the resale of tickets in order to ensure they stay in supporters’ hands. This market exists and it’s very ­difficult for ­everybody who holds major events to try to stamp it out.

“One thing we’re looking at is the ­possibility of doing our own in-house reselling mechanism and that would be the only one that is recognised.

“But putting something like that together takes a bit of time. We need to get a ­solution and are considering doing our own ­re-sale where tickets won’t be sold for more than fave value.”

An SRU spokesman said: “We are enjoying unprecedented demand for tickets and are working to ensure our tickets remain in the hands of loyal Scotland supporters.”

Ticketmaster failed to respond to requests for comment. Viagogo refused to comment.
