I was offered astronomical amounts for my tickets to Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals, Hurricans vs. Oilers. No way was I parting with them.
Interesting point you raise... on the other side of the coin, how much would it take to get one to sell tickets that they REALLY want?
I was very fortunate to find that the $400 per end zone seat I spent on the Jan '07 AFC Championship game in Indy was most decidedly worth it (but now am wondering if it will be the same for the NOV 4 re-match, potentially of unbeaten teams)...
In hindsight (or if I grab some seats soon for the re-match), exactly how much of an offer would it take to get me to part with those tix? Probably at least triple what I paid for them, which was 8 times face value in January).
Stubhub.com currently has NOV 4 tickets going for about 10 times face value in most cases. (Scalping has always been legal in Indy... except for the Final Four, which was an NCAA requirement to get the event.)
