Despite having nine shows across four different cities, namely Haikou, Hohhot, Dayuan and Tianjin, tickets to Jay’s concert were sold out within 30 seconds.
To make things worse, scalpers jumped on the opportunity to jack up ticket prices.
No wonder some fans flooded the Mandopop King’s Instagram to lament their plight.
“The concert tickets are impossible to get, and the scalpers are raising prices like crazy. A ticket that cost 500 yuan (S$98) is 2,000 yuan (S$390),” moaned one netizen.
Another netizen snarled: “Us fans couldn’t get any tickets, they’ve all been snatched by scalpers! [We] Want to cry.”
And if you thought that was bad enough, think again. Apparently, some scalpers are even selling front row tickets, which cost 2,000 yuan (S$390), at a whopping 28,000 yuan (S$5.5K).
