    Hope nobody buys these tickets, and you sit on your loss.

    Re: Iowa St. vs Baylor GA tickets $65/pair

    He is making 30 dollars off of his effort. When all is said and done he will probably have made about $10 per hour of work this took. It's kind of weird how vocal this board is when it comes to performance but then it has to have the cheapest people.

    We have no problem asking wealthy donors to fork over millions of their dollars to build stadium seats but lets harp on some guy who contributed to the athletic department and for whatever reason doesn't want to go and is looking to turn a small profit for the benefit of someone who really wants to go but can't find tickets.

    Lighten up fellas.

    Except that's not the case at all. I have no problem with people maximizing what they can get off of season tickets they can't use or games they suddenly can't make. These were tickets that were available for 24 hours just yesterday so there is no 'i just cant make this game', he just bought them with the single purpose of reselling.

    There is no 'benefit of someone who really wants to go but cant find tickets' because that is why the AD sold these tickets yesterday, not so some guy could buy them and turn around and mark up the price.

    It is every bit the case here. I realize he bought them with the intent of reselling them. Back to my original point, there is nothing sleazy about that. Someone who normally wouldn't have a chance to go to the game now will have a chance because of what this guy did. He offered a service, should he have done it for free?

    A truly honest question, what point is there to ******** about it? Did you know Hy Vee paid less for the corn-flakes you ate this morning then resold them to you at a higher price?

    I don't know how you make this leap. The tickets are not available for that someone to buy from the ticket office (at face value, I might add) because this guy bought them up to make a quick buck. He is not offering anyone "a service". He is scalping. He can do it. People can express their displeasure with this move as well.

    ISU is offering fans like me a chance to watch the game for 15 bucks. This guy is preventing that from happening.

    He didnt offer a service. Had he not bought them yesterday someone who wouldnt have been able to go to the game before yesterday would have been able to buy those tickets (there was clearly plenty of demand for those tickets). How does him taking those tickets off the market, marking them up, and then selling them himself 'offer a service'?
