I’m old enough to know who Billy Joel is, but I don’t really follow his tours and whatnot, so I went in pretty blind on this flip. I don’t think there was a verified fan for this one (I think other cities had it.) I didn’t think he could sell out a stadium, much less in Phoenix, so I had put this on a 2.5-3 on the risk/reward scale. That’s why I was pretty late to buy these tickets (prob 15-30 minutes late.) Even being that late, I was able to pull up 3 x F4 tickets. It seemed the disparity between nosebleeds and floors were very small. Looking back at it now, it seems nosebleeds were $100 and floors were prob $150. After fees, it cost me $563 for the 3 tickets. When the price disparity between nosebleeds and floors are that small, you want the best possible seats.
This was 2 weeks ago. Yesterday, I finally sold the tickets. My takehome was $688, so a profit of $125 and a 22% ROI. I’ll take that for being late to the party. I think due to the price disparity and my luck of getting good seats made this a winner. If I had bought nosebleeds, I’d be in the negative now.
