TM makes deals with scalpers

F#CKING F#CKS!  Like Rick said, we've known it all along. Just sucks seeing it in print.

No doubt, I'm in the minority who see it this way- but the fact that you usually do have to buy tickets so far in advance - for any concert, not just Joe's- if you want really good seats, is one reason why I don't have a problem with resales. I had some Joe tix a few years ago, bought them probably six months in advance, got row 4,  then broke my leg and could only go to the show in a wheelchair.  By then, there were no handicapped seats available and, of course, no refunds possible from TM. So why not resell them on the secondary market and get whatever the market will bear? I didn't buy them with the intention of flipping them for a big profit. But plans can change and since I usually get the best possible seats for Joe's shows, they cost $150 - $180 each so I'm not going to  just give them away (although I have done that in the past when his tickets cost less). When you sell on the secondary market, you can't just put some ridiculous price on your tickets. You have to price them in line with other similar tickets (location) or they won't sell. And even if you price them at what you originally paid, you still risk not selling them at all depending on the show. A lot of people think StubHub or similar sites set the ticket price - they don't - the seller does. I just don't have a problem with reselling tickets for whatever price you can get. It's virtually impossible to regulate or prohibit it.
