Right after we picked up my 10C tickets, I got offered $1,000 for both (they weren't great. 100 section, left side). We thought about it for about half a second, then cursed ourselves for not trying to pick up a pair of TM tix...
Passed on the cash- experienced an amazing show.
sounds like you support the scalping of tickets with that comment :twisted:
all scalpers are scum! they do not deserve to be on this earth, but people keep on selling to them and buying from them, so they will still exist
ticketbastard is bad enough with stub hub, and their legalized scalping of tickets.
let the real fans in by reselling your spares at face, and make sure they walk in the gate with you
Sorry to hear that. I went to the Shepherd's Bush show in London which was immense but didn't have a ticket. Tried every avenue known to man. I went down on the day and asked loads of people, I just got sad looks. I then asked a tout who quoted me £450 (in US, that's about $750) for ONE standing ticket, which was all I wanted. A real fan heard me and gave me his spare - his girlfriend paid £200 for it, I offered him £100 and I got a good night out because of it.
Just goes to show that there is some good in the world. Although I would have much rather paid the £40!
Rock on!!!!
Seen Pearl Jam 4 times in London, once in Manchester, as well as an Eddie show at Hammersmith.

Yeah, they're scum everywhere, but Toronto seems to have a big problem with it. I've been to shows, sporting events, etc in a bunch of cities, but none of them are like Toronto. There are so many of them and they're pretty agressive. I think someone mentioned the guy with the Lamborghini - he's been around for a long time, and I think he organizes all of the scalpers.
I went to a Jays game the next day, and the same scalpers were there. In fact a bunch of them were wearing the bootlegged Pearl Jam shirts that they had left over from the night before.
saw dozen's of scalper's around the 10club booth. up the stairs behind them, coming in to the fence, few were selling ticket's & few were looking for ticket's .. to sell! :? i don't know man. it's like scalper's have a deal with the cops that it's ok to do this. many were waving ticket's while security was passing right by them. i could of swore one of them was gonna buy a ticket from the guy!
There is one scalper, taller guy maybe late 40's/early 50's. Almost every single show I go to he is scalping tickets before the show and then selling street meat from his hot dog cart on the way out.
I'm glad so many agree with my comments. Like I said, i've seen the band going on forty times in probably 10 different states in the past ten years and have never been around trash like that. I'm still trying to figure out revenge. I thought of next time they are in toronto try to buys up a ton of lawn seats and scalp myself at face value just so the scalpers have to eat a bunch of there tickets. The only downfall of that is if I had to eat tickets for buying to many. I want payback. They caused me to miss that amazing pre-set.

At least some of y'all got in. I couldn't believe what they wanted. I was willing to pay up to $150 for a ticket.
That was my limit. I'm not rich....far from it. I can't afford to go to another show on the tour. I'm in T.O.
And.... all I did was stand outside for four hours & got some sun. A friend of mine who doesn't even like PJ went to the show. I offered to buy her ticket. Then during the show she sends me a text & says their overrated!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!
Anyway...... I hope that they eventually add a second show. Cause this time if they do, I'll have my computer & be able to participate in the presale.
Man..... I wish I could put a Pearl Jam pic in here as my siggie!!!! LMFAO!!

Not going to lie, I'm never one to turn down some Toronto street meet after a concert!
