I think of it was flameswin jay walking, and the driver sped up to purposely hit him.

Some people will call scalping drug dealing, some will call it jay walking, some will call it murder, some will call it not stopping for a complete 3 seconds at a stop sign. All these comparisons are not fair.

Here are the facts:
- flameswin tried to scalp his tickets
- flameswin did not recover his costs for the two tickets in the transaction
- flameswin did not get face value for the tickets
- He got intentionally screwed on the money for the AGREED price
- flameswin could cancel the tickets and informed the lady
- This lady is now threatening gang violence on him

Who's side are you guys taking???? I'm with flameswin here. It comes down to the intent of scalping vs. threatened violence. Its an easy choice what is worse. Currently, he has not officially scalped the tickets.

From my perspective, I would call and cancel the tickets. I would also consider giving $100 back, but don't know if I would go that far. If I did, I would leave it in a location and call to tell them where it is. This would cover your ass if something else happened.

I hope she doesn't have any personal information other than a cell phone number or email address (which does not have your full name).
Thanks for the support man.
