After years of reiterating how Stubhub works, people on this board still don't grasp the concept.
i know how stubhub works. can't say i've ever bought (or sold) a ticket that required showing id at willcall though.  I mean yes, i guess you could pay and then meet the person, hoping they show up.  will stubhub give you a refund if they don't?
Wait… stubhub is like a centralized "hub" for the exchange of "stubs" – a slang term for tickets – that other people can't use for American currency. I get it now! Thanks, Yada! I finally get it!

No I don't really understand how it works. Scalping was illegal were I lived before.

no one is buying or selling the tickets that have to get picked up at will call.

the SK presale tickets definitely have to be picked up at willcall with id.  Unless you are saying that some scalpers already have tickets through other means
I think the scalpers on stubhub are *anticipating* that they'll have tickets.

Or, more specifically, they are currently asking a price so high above what the actual market price will establish at that they feel confident they can get them through other non-box office means, if necessary, and still clear a profit.

I think what they are anticipating is that non-presale tickets will not be will call only…..
