I purchased the last 100 tix last night @ merriweather without service charges for $2,500.00 so as to increase my profit margin on resale. I am the market. I will be reselling them for 45.00 @ and making $14,000,000.

Of course, if the show moves to MCI due to demand, then I will be screwed.

MCI jokes aside, that's a pretty solid business plan.

Except for one hiccup. I purchased a block of 200 tickets right before you (I was wearing the green smock, pink feathered boa, a crown of thorns, and sandals) purposefully leaving 100 tickets behind. I now intend to flood the market, satiating demand and them some, rendering your tickets worthless.

What happens to people's tickets if they move to MCI? Do we get first dibs or do we get a refund?

This will not happen. It's an inside joke that's going on this board.

this is rich. speaking of rich, i know this nigerian businessman with a great proposition for you…kidding.

You're welcome, because I had half a mind to tell him the tickets would be converted to club level seating at the MCI show.

Why is there no service charge at Merriweather, but if you buy from the 9:30 box office, they charge $1 for each ticket?

Because they can….Dunno..good question. 9:30 obviously needs to pay the person selling at the club BOX…the person at Merriweather appears to work for tickets.com or ticketmaster as she was telling me about working at the Baltimore Arena last week on the Rolling Stones show.

and that;s all i have to say about that…

#1: the nats aren't making the playoffs.

#2: dcfc is way bigger than mlb. they'd move the nats game to a college field or something.
