R u a ticket scalper?
    #20270474 - 07/14/14 10:26 AM (9 years, 7 months ago)

Do you ever go to concert parking lots for the soul purpose of buying tickets then turning around and selling them at a higher price?

Lol yea, i didn't even know it was a thing until i saw it first-hand a few weeks back

I used to think people were referring to selling tickets in lots in general when they said "scalping", i never knew that there were losers that bought them for the only purpose of reselling them at a jacked up price

ticket scalpers suck.  taht being said, there's a flip side to every coin. 



i once saw Paul McCartney here in DC for $20 because homedude had a few left over after the showtime had started.  was just trying to offload 'em.  i was worried it was fake since he let it go for so little (was a sold out show)

I don't have anything against it in principle but it's not something I would want to do (nor would I buy from a scalper.) If you buy a ticket for something, it's yours and I don't see anything wrong with selling it.

i dont see anything wrong with it. just a guy trying to make a dollar. if u wanted a ticket at normal price, u shoulda been on top of it like they were. that being said, I dont have any interest in scalping. but every now and then ill show up to a concert and haggle a ticket for cheap.

I dont get why theyre the scum of the earth. I think the true scum of the earth are politicians, bankers, and thieves (which are essentially more politicians and bankers).

A ticket scalper is just like any other entrepreneur in the lot.
Just like the guy selling $5 beers. He bought them for $1-$2 a piece then jacked it up at the show. Its all about supply and demand.

That said I now refuse to buy tickets for over face value. Usually if I don't get a good deal in the lot I either wait until show time and get in for half the cost due to scalpers unloading them like someone else mentioned it don't go in at all.

So how do you all feel about the price increases that festivals do as show time approaches?

Its the same thing a scalper does.

When you go to a sports game you see all these guys scalping tickets on the way there.  It's the same guys for the most part.  Where do they acquire all these tickets?
