Coachella goers were very disappointed this week when the news dropped that Beyoncé had cancelled her appearance at the festival.
Upon hearing the news, fans were, unsurprisingly, less than pleased with many of them asking for a refund.

With the news, there was much speculation that re-sale prices of the tickets for the festival would drop significantly. However, the complete opposite has happened and we have no idea why!
Before Bey cancelled, tickets were going for $540 and twenty four hours later, they were up at $550.
Coachella organisers say that this reinforces the fact that people go to the festival for the experience as opposed to one particular act...but we're not convinced that's the way Beyoncé fans feel right now.
