i guess if the market is there for someone to pay that much, you really can't fault the seller for getting everything they can.
i dunno, my moral compass points to it being a little wrong but to each its own i guess.. |

Does anyone have 2 all-day Axwell Surfcomber pool party tickets? My friend needs 2 tickets. He was off the grid and missed out on getting tickets.
I know a lot of people are going to the scalping route...that's fine, though I'm not sure it has a place here on TA.
If anyone has 1 or 2 extra that they're not trying to make a bunch of $ on and want to sell to a fellow TA, hit me up. I would greatly appreciate it and buy you a drink or 2 at the show.
Thanks. |

Where did you manage to sell? :)
I have 1 extra Ultra ticket that I need to get rid of, would be very happy to get $400 (the ticket cost me $375). Selling on Stubhub etc. you need to set the price high to break even because of their ridiculous fees :/ |

fees are lower on ebay...
i think a $400 ticket the selling fee would be like $25 or something like that. |

Stubhub charges 15% and ebay 9%
So to get $375 I would need to set the price to $440 on Stubhub or $410 + shipping on ebay |

if you do a BIN on ebay, the fees are:
11.0% of the initial $50.00, plus 6.0% of the remaining balance ($50.01–$1,000.00)
so $26.50, right? or $401.50 (+ shipping) on ebay |

at today's prices, you're going to have to take a loss.. i see close to 100 tickets alone on stubhub listed under $399... and the average price on ebay seem like $350-ish.
was $375 the out-the-door price if bought direct from Ultra? |

Yes, unfortunately looks that way... bought extra 2 tix at the last release at $375 per ticket after all the fees, thinking we'd need them both, but turns out only needed 1
Oh well, next year gonna buy the 10 as soon as possible x) |
