Hecha la ley, hecha la trampa

Some of those who quickly sold out the tickets for the Argentina vs Peru match on October 5th echoed the famous saying. And they used ingenious ways to resell the tickets for the crucial match that will be played at the Bombonera for the Eliminatory.

Populace resells tickets to see the National Team at 10 times their value

The tickets for Argentina-Peru, a match that will define much of the chances of both teams qualifying for the World Cup, almost didn't last in the official sale. It only took an hour to sell out the grandstand seats on Friday, and on Tuesday the sale ended in just 23 minutes.

Ticket resale: suspicions abound and all rumors lead to the Boca barra

However, resale immediately began on the Internet, especially on sites like Mercado Libre. There, grandstand seats can be found for over 20 thousand pesos and popular seats that reach more than 5 thousand (even though the official sale price ranged from 550 to 4,800 pesos for grandstand seats).

The usual mistreatment suffered by Argentine soccer fans

To prevent the sites where the tickets are resold from canceling the publications, because it is, of course, an illegal practice, some opted to "give away" the tickets with the purchase of another product. This way, if you "buy" a marker, a pen, or fabric, you get, as a bonus, a ticket to go see the National Team.

While some interested people inquired about these publications, others expressed their anger in the comments about this dishonest practice.

Scandal: ticket resale for Argentina-Peru already explodes

Among the resellers, there was one who opted for another method: a coded language. While the title of their publication offers a "collector's ticket," the image shows the date of the upcoming match. The description clarifies, just in case, that it is "only for those in the know."
