Scalpers spotted reselling BLACKPINK’s concert tickets for double price. Many Malaysian Blinks (BLACKPINK’s fandom name) voice their anger towards the K-pop group’s pricey concert tickets.
However, the anger didn’t die down when some fans spotted scalpers reselling BLACKPINK’s Born Pink tickets for double the price!
Ticketing websites like Viagogo and Carousell are these scalpers’ main targets to sell the group’s concert tickets at higher prices than stated in Live Nation Malaysia.
As you can see, Live Nation offers tickets from RM388 to RM 1,888.
But Viagogo is selling them up to RM6k, which is too expensive for many Malaysian Blinks!
Not only that, but some sellers in Carousell are also offering BLACKPINK’s concert fee higher than the official price released by Live Nation Malaysia.
Live Nation’s deals are as follows: CAT 6 (RM388), CAT 5 (RM488), CAT 4 (588), CAT 3 (RM788), CAT 2 (RM988), CAT 1 (RM1, 588) and Born Pink VIP Soundcheck Package (RM1, 888). Can you see the stark difference between Live Nation’s price with Viagogo and Carousell?
The prices shown in Carousell are also different and more expensive than purchasing at Live Nation Malaysia.
Taking advantage of others is not an act we should condone upon. Thus, any Malaysian Blinks out there, make the best choice so that you won’t buy the tickets from scalpers.
