I dunno, it feels scummy to buy tickets just to re-sell, but I gotta admit I’m tempted to do it… if I don’t do it, someone else will!

I'm assuming starts at $300 nosebleeds upto 2K+ floor.
To be fair, Vancouver scalping is higher risk, last time UFC scalpers took a massive L, 10 - 25% of seats were empty.

Dudes will just be like fuck it let's go back to buddies or a bar. The Taylor fans will go to great lengths to even just be outside the stadium let alone inside.

^And this is why Vancouver is such a shitty city for concert experiences. I'm so sick of this hustle make money over everything culture in this damn city.
It's fucking jarring when it's cheaper to go to the same artist's concert in Seattle with an overnight hotel room then it is in this city for the ticket alone.
Fuck Vancouver and this scalping bullshit, one of the worst places in NA for this shit.

That said where the fuck is my money.
I originally bought it with the intent to go, but I fucked up my car at the track so I needed the money. If it didn't sell, I would have went. But it sold a few hours before the show. I was selling it to ppl on my social media/Track Chat at cost so I wasn't trying to scalp.

I like Ryan Reynolds but I'm not about to go watch all the seasons of Gossip Girl because his wife is in it.

I tested out ticketmasters resale feature and I accidentally insta-sold at my test price to see how it works.
Made $2K in profit but I rebought all the tickets at a different seat and I'm taking everyone for free now. Quote:

Taylor's bf sure plays better when she comes to the game.
Of course I'd also do better work if Taylor was my girlfriend and was cheering me on.

Just had a family gathering yesterday and my cousin who is the biggest swifty fan ever has two tickets to Toronto and two tickets to the Paris show.
The Toronto tickets she bought for around $100 (balcony) are $3,300 on stubhub right now.
She said she's not going to sell it. Her hubby wants her to sell it because they're going to Paris for the show, but she doesn't want to.. She's crazy.
She saw the movie, she's going to say taylor in Toronto, and Paris... It's a whole different level of crazy.
I told her to sell Toronto and then enjoy her time in Paris as it would be paid for. But, she won't do it.

Skeptical if it's pushing @ $2K a ticket, maybe on TM, but local sales seems like no one is pushing it on FB groups.

Looks like there may be a hotel shortage. I wonder if there is a hotel room reselling website. https://bc.ctvnews.ca/no-vancouver-h...hows-1.6630544
