I spent an hour yesterday flagging posts, it's just wrong to charge for something that should be free. RIP Michael.

Right. Glad AEG also did the right thing in the end and didn't charge the original $25 a ticket asking price they were going to. As another poster said, leave it to Ticketmaster for the real scalping.

I see no problem with selling them. If I really wanted to go and buying them was the only option, I would have paid for a ticket.
