Week 4 - Topic 2 Black Markets Tickets to athletic events, concerts and other venues are often resold at higher than original prices. In some states, scalping is outright illegal, while in other states, scalping is legal under certain circumstances. You may have your own opinion about scalping, and it may be related to moral issues. I would like you to use some of the concepts you have learned in this course to analyze the issue and answer the following questions: 1. Is the original ticket price necessarily an accurate measure of the equilibrium price? 2. Who are the winners and losers in scalping?
