msc, Robl, WOW if you are below .240

Are you hearing how obscene the scalp/broker prices are for Game 4?

Upper level $150+

Lower level on the curve $350+

Lower level non-curve $550+

I was offered lower level non-curve for $250 thru a connection but it's for game 6, get this...IT'S non-refundable.  That's the terms he bought them for so that's how he's selling them.  That's quite a gamble unless you can see into the future.  After game 4 the price will jump to $500 if the Lakers win and $128 if the Lakers lose.  He said last year the same tickets went for 1K, if the Lakers win game 5 the price will $1500.

IMO that's the best you're going to get from a broker.

WOW,

Last years ticket Game 6 went for 1K.  Got it.
This years Game 6 will go for 1.5K if:

a) its 3-2 Spurs
b  its 3-2 Lakers

c) Either way Game 6 goes for 1.5K irregarless.

If its c contact me ASAP.

Reality, I was out of town this weekend and couldn't go on Sunday (Do'h!).  I sold them to a good friend for face, which is $100.  My seats are in section 215 (behind the basket, but good view).  I have no idea the scalp seen for San Antone, but based on my past experience I would estimate I could sell them for at least $250-$300 each.  That being said, I'm not a seller.

msc,

Can I be your "good friend"?  ;)

Reality: Got a call in for a couple of tickets.  Will know tommorow seat numbers and price.

I'll post as soon as I know one way or another.

I don't wanna go XFiles on you, well i do but not in this case.
Seems msc told us that some bogus tickets have turned up, or perhaps it was my buddy and wife who went Staples that one day  ;)

Anywho out of the question for him to meet at Staples Box for verification?  Would this offend him?
do you think meeting him at the Box for verification is overkill? You know of him well enough not to sweat it?

I very much doubt the tickets are fake.  I've seen the guy on TV more than once at Laker games.  He's the hispanic guy they showed last game sititng there with his kid for about 20 seconds.  He's a boxing promotor with "connections".  If the tickets are a rip off you just say "thank you" and go home unless you want a knock on the door.

C'mon its 2pm.  If the refs fix the game and the Lakers win the tix will be sold immediately.  No way i want to depart for LA during rush hour which in LA means 230 pm-9pm   :blink: .  

Any chance you're on the Ins so much with this guy that he can cut the deal that if the Lakers win, its yours, even if you don't physically hand him the money till late tues night or Wednesday?

If so you will get the tickets, knowing I'm good for the money on Wednesday?  Sweet.
