Introduction
Back in October 2017, a reader had told me he had made money on the last Kenny Chesney tour, and while I’ve heard of his name, I can’t identify one song of his. However, since a reader was confident in the tickets and you know my Viet gambling blood, I had to take a flyer on the tickets. I chose the New Jersey concert (closest to NYC) and went with 6 nosebleed tickets for $470 all in.
Selling the tickets
I listed them on SH and after 6 weeks, they sold for a take-home price of $470. Yes, I lost a quarter on all 6 tickets. However, I did get 6 copies of his CD and probably made about $10-$20 flipping them on Ebay.
Lessons Learned
I don’t know. I’ve always believed country stars don’t flip as well as pop, but have no data to prove or disprove it. I’ll most likely skip Kenny’s tickets in the future.
You need to buy his tickets at Texas or Bama. The only connection NJ has with Kenny Chesney fans are their love for pickup trucks.
True. Not sure why I went with Jersey.
