don’t buy pricey tickets from scalpers. scalpers will sell tickets at $100+ their selling value, and it isn’t worth it. they have even sold tickets at more than $1000, which is RIDICULOUS. bts wouldn’t support that.

watch ticket prices. keep an eye on the ticket prices on stubhub or other reselling sites. sometimes, legitimate people will try to resell their tickets because they can’t go to the concert for some reason. if any reasonably-priced tickets show up, try to buy them if you want to.

get involved with resellers on different websites. people on tumblr sometimes want to trade or sell tickets to different concerts. the same goes with facebook, twitter, and other social media websites. there are often facebook groups of people looking to buy, sell, and trade bts tickets; join those groups and contact people who are selling. if you see a good offer, talk with the seller on social media. if anything seems shady, don’t buy the tickets. some people might try to scam you. you want as much verifiable information as they can provide you with before you buy the tickets. if you decide to buy or trade tickets, perform the ticket/money exchange on a reputable website, and note the personal information of the seller in case something goes wrong.

wait for resell prices to go down. scalpers inflate the price of tickets because they know people are excited to get tickets and are more willing to pay high prices. as the concert date gets nearer, scalpers will often lower their prices because they need to sell the tickets or they will lose money. wait until a few days before the concert date and then check the prices on stubhub. they will likely be way cheaper than they were at the beginning, with an addition of around $20 to their original selling value. this is the perfect time to get tickets. 

if you don’t get tickets, don’t panic. not buying tickets doesn’t make you any less of a fan. concerts are a fun experience, but the prices scalpers often sell tickets for are just not worth it. bts would never want their fans to get taken advantage of. it sucks that people buy up tickets just to inflate the price dramatically, screwing over actual fans who want to buy tickets for reasonable prices. there will always be another concert. this is definitely not the last time bts will have a world tour. there will be other bts concerts, activities, and events that you can attend.
