Re: Selling tickets on for profit
This reminds me of a story a mate of mine told me when he had a spare couple of U2 tickets for the Zooropa tour. He listed them on the company bulletin board and attracted bids for about £350 for the two. I can't remember the face value but I would suggest £30, so a nice mark-up. The winner comes over to his desk having withdrawn the cash and my mate says "It's cool, just £60. You've proven that you are a U2 fan and that you will appreciate the tickets" I believe they spent the rest of the day and maybe a large chunk of the cash in the pub. True gent my mate is.
