    some ticket agencies have contracts with venues where they get guaranteed tickets to every show, like a season pass you can buy for some venues, this is nothing new
    50+ shows and lost count somewhere along the way

    $800 per ticket - that's robbery!

    This person might just be posting the listing in the hopes of getting good tickets. If he/she cannot, it's simple and free to delete the auction.

    but if someone were to "buy it now" wouldnt they have to provide the tickets?

    You're right -- I didn't notice that. Still, though, he/she just might be expecting to either get them for face value or to get them through some other avenue for less than $400 each or whatever. It's not necessarily Ticketmaster being in cahoots or something.

    maybe you didn't read my post:

    some ticket agencies have contracts with venues where they get guaranteed tickets to every show, like a season pass you can buy for some venues, this is nothing new

    this is common practice and goes on at almost every venue
    i know a ticket broker here in NYC that have the same exact 2nd row seats for every single show at the beacon theater and it is not a connection to ticketmaster it is a connection to the venue, they always reserve some seats
    50+ shows and lost count somewhere along the way

    that's all well and good but it doesn't take away from the fact that the man is ripping people off royally
