Online Ticket Scalpers Selling Pope Visit Train Tickets For Up to 4x Face Value
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Ticket scalpers are reportedly trying to profit off of the papal visit.
Some people on e-Bay and Craigslist are trying to sell their train tickets during the Pope's visit for up to $40; four times the ticket's face value.
But, there is one problem for those sellers, the tickets are not even close to being sold out.
A SEPTA spokesperson is urging those who are interested in a ticket to visit their website and pay the standard rate of $10 a ticket.
