Restaurant reservations have become the hot new scalping racket

This has been done for years now already. Some places take the reservation charge off of your final bill, some don’t. When it started (a place in Michigan) it was all over the trade news-did it work, would people put up with it and so on. I suspect most of the places where scalpers make the reservations already charge and the scalpers just increase their prices accordingly.
