While some may claim that ticket scalping is unethical and immoral, even illegal in certain states and municipalities, it is simply a free-market transaction. Most economists avidly oppose laws that make ticket scalping illegal. Such regulations do not allow the market forces to reign.

The only problem with this arguement, is in most other examples of a market there is not a finite inventory. More finnished goods can be produced, more food can be farmed or raised, more energy can be produced.
