Default tickets on ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=16122

Does anyone here think the band is authorizing these kind of prices?

I would hope not. If so, they should be ashamed.

From what I saw, the "authorized" tickets all started below face value. If people choose to bid to the point of making the prices so extremely high, then it's the bidders who you blame for the prices. I've always thought it was stupid to bid on something like tix days before the auction ended. If you wait until the last minute, you don't jack the price up in bidding wars.

that's cheaper than buying the four tickets separately, but still a rip off.

There is one other thing that bothers me about this...This looks like nothing more than legalized scalping. I know in addition to the tickets you receive tshirts and posters, but isn't this taking advantage of your fans? It is not like they are auctioning off tickets and whatever they make over face value they donate to a charity, they are putting the cash in their pockets. I understand that it is a free market and if people can pay it, fine. But this still stinks.

OMG, what a freak. I would rather go shopping and spend that kind of money. At least I would have something to show for it.
