SOLD OUT? NO PROBLEM. HERE'S HOW...
Extracted from CNN Money.com, Jul 1, 2008 -- Resellers don't buy or own tickets or set the prices. Rather, they provide a marketplace for fans seeking to sell unneeded tickets..."If you know how the system works, buying through a reseller can get you access to seats that are otherwise unavailable"...But like all shopping online, comparative pricing is key. Prices can fluctuate so always keep an eye out for the best deal.
THE BIZ: OR HOW I LEARNED TO STOP WORKING AND LOVE THE TICKET SCALPER
Extracted from ESPN The Magazine, May 20, 2008 -- The traditional thinking is that ticket scalping is bad for the home team...But that traditional thinking is wrong...By allowing free and open ticket resale, the Cubs have increased the value of the ticket resale option, which in turn leads to an increase in the value of the ticket when they put it up for sale in the pre-season. [Think of that as the Cubs ticket IPO.]
