    Default Ticket reselling

    Anyone's thoughts on reselling show tickets (Not one person selling tickets because they suddenly can't go)? I'm looking at the apparently Ebay owned Stubhub.com at tickets to the Cure show next month and tickets way worse than mine are going for $200. I so wish this was illegal. I have no chance at getting front row tickets ($980-1200 EACH resold), because some Ebayer is buying them to resell. They would have been about $70 at the get go.

    It's not like we aren't gouged enough for the tickets. Is this just the cost of entertainment? Or evil Ebayers in a rampage? Should this be outlawed? I think so.

    Yes, absolutely. I HATE this. If I ever have show tickets and I suddenly can't got, I resell them for what I paid for them, nothing more. I don't care if I can make money, even if it wasn't my original intention. I would feel like an asshole.

    So you can imagine what I think of the low-life scum sucking maggots who do this for a living. Fuck them in their assless chaps, with only the tears of their first born for lube.

    So do I! I'd feel like crap reselling them for a thousand dollars. I have bought tickets people were selling on Ebay, but it was $5 tickets-to Peter Gabriel! Now that's reselling!

    And a lot of times those seats go unsold because of the price, and then there's a huge gap in the crowd. Which I think sucks, too.
