Should ticket scalping be legal or illegal? In some states it's legal but in others it isn't. Some are trying to get it legalized.
(In case you don't know, ticket scalping is the resale of a ticket purchased for an event, often at a profit.) Personally, I don't see a problem with it. If the ticket was already purchased previously, then the profit was made for that company. They bought the ticket, it's theirs. So if they're going to sell it for more money, that's their choice. What do you guys think? |

I'm personally against ticket scalping. There is that risk of people scamming you, cheating you, all those things. Plus, who would you trust more? The local Ticketmaster or some 12 year-old punk looking to get a quick buck?

Hard-working people try to buy a ticket but instead some greedy punk buys the maximum limit you are allowed to buy and then you have no choice to pay maybe twice sometimes thrice the real pay. And yea, that risk of cheating, scamming... |
