The battle for Tohoshinki’s performance tickets has begun.
Tohoshinki will commence their Japanese arena tour next year, starting from the Yokohama stop on January 18. For these performances, as soon as the tickets went on sale last month, they were sold out within 1 minute, obtaining a hot response. However, fans who were unable to purchase the tickets are anxiously pacing around and sourcing for black market tickets. In reality, on Japanese auction bidding sites, the prices of tickets put up for trading were going at the average rate of 50,000 yen (726,400 won). Amidst this situation, the Osaka stop tickets were even trading up till 110,000 yen (1,508,100 won). Considering that the original price of the tickets was 9,500 yen (138,000 won), this is a price which amounted to a staggering 10 times of the original price. However, even so, this has resulted in a situation where it is difficult to purchase the tickets which have been driven to high prices by bidders.
Fans expressed their sense of regret, “Please have an additional performance for Tohoshinki at Tokyo Dome”, “It’s not enough to just have an arena tour”, “I want to see Tohoshinki. Please sell your tickets to me.”
Tohoshinki will hold a fanmeeting in Singapore on December 4.
According to Google, the most reliable source ever, 50,000 yen= ~$642, 110,000yen = ~$1410, 9,500yen = ~$110. Damn.

if i remember it correctly, there were once a ticket for 300,000 yen for "The Secret Code" back in 2009.

Date: 2011-11-04 10:45 am (UTC)sorry for capslock, but I wish the government would crack down on it. If they enforced face-value ticket sales ONLY on Yahoo auctions, mbok, ticket shops and such, everything would change drastically. Tickets are fucking expensive to begin with especially when most of the ticket selling services charge you a million "service fees" (service for NOTHING, it's all done online)
Funny how shit can get taken off youtube in a millisecond but nobody seems to care about blatant scalping. Makes me think the record execs/promoters are doing dirty business.
