Scalper info

[ilikemusic]

Couldnt find any scalper threads already in business so, sorry to beat a dead horse and make a new one.

Heres a facebook group that used to be a guy selling jerseys, he has now changed it to a group to scalp his TFC season tickets.

They arent in the supporters section, so it isnt all that bad, but still. He is marking them up to double the face value, at minimum.

He's a Member here http://www.redpatchboys.ca/forums/member.php?u=745

As long as he's not selling them here at a markup, and he's not pawning off 10 seats for every game, I don't really have an issue with this.
It looks like he's a fan, who won't be able to make it to the games this year.

Wow. :eek:

Scalper's solidarity!

[wzhxvy]

In my view this is another clear case of scalping, and as I have said before, I am sure the FO is all over this, reviewing, investigating, addressing the issue AND making sure it never happens again.

[sulfur]

Erm... he's selling them for face (as best I can tell)... so how is this scalping?

[wzhxvy]

Well unless the tickets in 105 are worth $70 each, its scalping...but maybe ticket prices in 105 have gone up significantly since I last checked :-)

[BRed]

This shouldn't be allowed. It's a disgrace to the soccer culture here. It's like "let's take advantage of my fellow TFC fan as I stick him for a pair of tickets"..Sorry but anyone with that kind of mindset can't be a true fan in my books. I underrstand if you sell it for face value+$10 to make up for gas or whatever...$140?? $190?!!! (Come on...you don't want to get deported to Colombus?? do you??)

[JDG]

Wow. :eek:

Careful - solidarity implies that I'm a scalper. You should seriously consider whether you want to go there or not.

[SQUIRREL]

hey guys, he's asking $140/both.... That sounds about right. I sit in sec.109 & I pay $60 a game(season tickets). I think sec105 is more $$$

109 is worth more than 105

[wzhxvy]

Ok to end this, I actually did some work..checked the TFC site :

http://web.mlsnet.com/t280/tickets/single_game/

For 105, the max price per seat is $46, but they are as low as $25...

Am I missing something ????

[SQUIRREL]

oh is it. Then I'm sorry. Continue bashing

[Toronto Ruffrider]

^ Actually, the cheapest seats for that price range (medium grey) are $35, not $25. Still scalping, though.

[wzhxvy]

^ But if you look at the light greys, which appear to be the top of 105, that is where I got the $25 from....

[Toronto Ruffrider]

True, but the scalper's seats are in row 17, which is in the med. grey price range. I think the light greys start at row 20.
