The lightbulb just went on in my head (I'm reading this at 6AM -- getting my clock readjusted for UK time as we leave tomorrow for a lovely week abroad). These sets of 4 tickets on ebay are obviously being scalped by "fan club" members. My boyfriend was a little worried when he heard the cursing out of me about this situation. I guess that this should be no surprise. There is also a set of 4 for the Toronto show going for $2600 Canadian (a small fortune). Seats are upper lower bowl by the stage. I personally hope that these tix do not sell. So, we are competing with scalpers even before the tour begins. Jaded already. Grrrrrr!!!!!! Anne
Actually I'm guessing the scalpers have enough connections to have gotten tickets through the Best Buy thing. They can pay a BB Rewards member (who doesn't care about the Police in the first place) $50 instead of $100 and get first shot at seats. ----- Original Message ----- From: Anne Stephens To: police@mailman.xmission.com Sent: Friday, February 16, 2007 5:27 AM Subject: [Police] ebay The lightbulb just went on in my head (I'm reading this at 6AM -- getting my clock readjusted for UK time as we leave tomorrow for a lovely week abroad).
