Just thinking like a lawyer.

I am just trying to support my habit (JB Concerts). I am not listing them for sale on BN. that would be illegal. I'm just letting people know that I might have extras if they want to email me, privately, off BN. Anyone who has seen belly up knows it only holds 400 people. At any other show, there are 400 people in the first 2 rows.

We have a ticket exchange on BN. It's totally legal when you sell them for face + fees.

Also, I'm going to the show, i live in town, I'll meet you at the door and go in with you. Just so you know I'm not printing out fake tickets and selling them. I'm not a thug, just too poor to go to afford tickets.

Back to Aspen....see here:

The cab ride appears to be on his way to the 12/29/1997 show.

Thanks, Sailor. As long as you're legit and sell at face value around here, you'll make friends and be welcome. This isn't the place to deceive or scalp for profit, and unfortunately, as some have been taken advantage of, a first-time poster with tix to sell turns folks understandably skeptical. I hope you get to enjoy the show.

AFTER the show??? Send me your number and I'll call you during the show.

I thought about doing that at the Vegas 10/21 show, then realized I only had numbers for BN'ers that we already at the show, duh!!

Sorry I jumped on you Mtn Sailor, it's just what Q&S said, we're skeptical when a certain combination of factors present themselves.

And yes Larry, you can print multiples, but the bar-code will of course mean that only the first copy through the door will be let in.

don't forget that the tickets have the purchasers name on them. Also, Bellyup could track you down by your credit card number and have you prosecuted for selling "fake" (duplicate) tickets.

I see a scalper's asking $1200 for a pair...and is using Mal's picture....

Wow. That's messed up. I'm not an ebay user, but if anyone can help on my behalf to have my picture removed, that would be most excellent.

Ok. I sent the ebay person a message about the picture...

Excuse me, but I couldn't help but notice that is me in the picture with Jimmy Buffett. I'm the one wearing the jeans and closest to Jimmy. I am thoughtfully asking you to remove the picture as I do not want my likeness associated with your overinflated re-sale prices of concert tickets.

Thank you.

Good message, Mal. If your email doesn't work eBay customer support might be worth a try....

I figure he has 'til morning when I get to work to have it changed, then have at him and I'll email customer service, too.

I don't see you on the auction page, only a really small picture of Jimmy.


Well folks, it's finally December, time to get ramped up for this show....we're only three weeks away.

Don't you hate buying concert tickets so long before the show, you almost forget about it?!?!?!

this is my "I'm not going to Aspen" face.......
but at least I have Peter Mayer on the 18th to look forward to....we got VIP tickets so we'll be front and center for that one.

Peter is playing in Denver the day before, so the 17th. I looked into going until I realized it isn't really a Peter show. He's sitting in on the three church services for the day. Which is fine, but not exactly what I was after.
