"Especially since I'm just out of university and I earn well below 4K net" Where does this belief come from that you get 4K net with studies? 😅 Since you need over 6,6k€ gross with tax class 1. What are 1000€ today vs. a presumably once-in-a-lifetime experience? Especially since I think as little of the ticket resellers as I do of the scalpers at Playstation and Co....

@Staatsmann find just the last point crucial. If everyone now buys / hoards something to resell it for a profit, cheers. I myself waited 2.5 years for a PS5 because I didn't feel like throwing the money down the throat of a reseller. A boss of mine at the time bought 6 pallets (!) of toilet paper wholesale during Corona because he didn't feel like heart hunting in the supermarket. If everyone does something like that, hardly anyone with a normal income can afford anything. Affects me less, because I'm basically fine. But I don't think it's fair for the economically weaker members of society. Well, a bit similar to the prisoner's dilemma...

@Staatsmann that was not related to the fact that I would have expected more or less after graduation, but should give an indication that 1k more or less still make a difference for me 😊 And thus one of the influencing factors of my decision. To resell - valid point, even if I do not see myself as a classic reseller. I didn't originally buy the tickets to resell them. The "opportunity cost" (pocketing 1000€ or spending 500€ incl. travel, meals, etc) is now at a level that a soccer game is not worth to me.
