Adele tickets sold out in minutes, and sites like stubhub already have them posted 2x face value. I hope the frickers doing that get herpes.

While I hope you're a chick for looking at Adele tickets, I share your sentiment on scalpers.

Non contributing pieces of shite. If society would be better off from you not doing what you do, then you're a piece of shite no matter how you justify it.

Well that's what happens when they let you buy what, 12 tickets at a time or something like that?

I got hooked up by a scalper with awesome seats to the US women's game last night. 24 rows up, right on midfield. Couldn't ask for a better view. $80 for what would have cost $200 from ticketmaster.

Do you even supply and demand bro? I'd have bought every last one if I could and sold them for triple.

It's not a free market when all the goods are hoarded and the prices gouged.

Illegal in certain circumstances, right here in America.

1. You should be ashamed for buying adelle tickets
2. You are obviously a communist if you don't think the market should set the price

And who the hell is Chris Stapleton.

I might pay $5k to see Jesus speak, just for the historical perspective and the wine making mind you, but that is about it.

The market price was face value, the scalpers created an artificial supply constraint. That is not free market, that is crony capitalism.

I'm glad scalpers exist


If I decide to go to the Adele concert a week before there would be nothing available for me to purchase if it weren't for scalpers.
