Then again, I didn't think there were people that would stick up for scalpers either.

I was wondering when someone was going to bring up Ticketmaster, or are we still pretending scalpers are the only ones pulling this shit?

      <![CDATA[Thanks fellas!  Didn't think about it that way - if someone's making money on it, they most not be total assholes!<br>
<br>
It's often illegal and no one actually involved in the concert has any say in it - not the venue, not the actual ticket retailers, and certainly not the artists.<br>
<br>
Fuck scalpers.  We're allowed to hate the assholes that make us pay twice as much (or more) for already expensive tickets.

      <![CDATA[Aestro, I'll stick up for scalpers.  All they are doing is buying items that they believe will be worth more in the future, and then selling them later.  It's the same thing that people do when they buy "collectables," hoping to sell them for hundreds of dollars to tortured fanboys in the future.  Any time you make any investment, you are doing exactly what the scalpers are doing.  Why is it so different for event tickets than for, say, stocks?  Or, let's take another example, what about when a retail store buys from a warehouse and sells at an inflated price?  How is that any different?  Yet, I don't hear people grumbling over how evil store owners are.

But this person DOES have a job - taking money from ignorant dummies who're willing to buy tickets off of scalpers. It's the economy, stupid fuck.
