I was just on eBay and there are a mountain of Prince tickets for this tour. Tickets are starting at $150 and going up to $800. I guess he's still a popular show to the public. People are realizing Prince has the best live show there is!

and heeere we go...it'll be interesting to see if and how NPG combats eBay scalping, though i assume such a practice is perfectly legit, no?

i'm wondering if the shows are legitimately selling out, or if ticket brokers are snapping them all up in hopes of reselling them?

In actuality some people are asking up to $1,200 but none are going for anywhere near that. The most expensive I saw that were selling were 3rd row in Reno for $560 for 2, but the reserve isn't met so it's not a legitimate bid.

The next highest were $480 for two tickets in LA.


Here is the entire listed highest to lowest.

Almost all these tickets are from brokers. There are going to be MANY non-members sitting in front of the members...just like in Hawaii.

I know that earlier some were selling for that high, but I'm talking currently.

I don't see how that can happen, when presale tix are being distributed to members via random Will Call assignment...wouldn't that separate members' seats from the seats offered on Ticketmaster?

This has happened before. What happens is that in some venues, they hold back some of the premium tickets and hold them for their favorite scalpers and brokers..
