Slang for "convenience charge," the fee that Ticketmaster/Ticketbastard adds to your ticket price to cover their overhead, labor costs, and hosting bills.
Her: Hang on, this show is only 20 bucks. Why the hell is my credit card about to be charged $32.50??
Him: Yeah, that would be the inconvenience charge. Bastards.

The BS fee Ticketmaster charges they claim is a "Convenience Charge" when buying concert tickets.
Hey Wesley, what do I owe you for the Foghat tix?
The tickets were $25, please another $20 for the Ticketmaster inconvenience charge.
Wow - so Ticketmaster charges also as much as the band?
Yeah, but sometimes you can avoid the inconvenience charge by purchasing directly at the venue.
