    Each Crew season ticket account holder could order 8 additional tics for the game. If an entire family each had their own account (smart thing to do, for the benefits), it's possible to end up with this many tickets.

    I'm not saying this is a Crew Soccer Nation member - just as a possible way to accumulate so many tics.

    Not possible -- I am guessing this is a sponsor selling their tickets.

    Either that or this is a bogus listing.

    Could also be someone who's registed as a US Soccer Fan under multiple names so multiple purchases could be made.

    I don't think so.

    See his claim:

    By the way, he's in Chicago IL - eBay member since Oct-13-04 and no transactions to date.

    Not possible to get 50 of them together that way...

    I had to be a group buy or something -- I am sure US Soccer ain't all too pleased.

    Yeah, I didn't pick up on the all seats together business when I first read it.

    Boy, there are a number in the Supporters' Section. I hope those people who shelled out $150 for tickets in that section don't turn it into a big downer. Could get unpleasant there, especially if the security decides to show their stuff.

    Well, that's about 150 tickets currently on E-Bay right now.

    i.e 150 more Mexi fans.

    I wish I could kill some of these people

    In all, there have been 300+ tickets on eBay. That's 1.5% of all tickets available :mad:

    Those people selling Sam's Army section tickets with no warning of what the section is like are truly major jerks. As for the other people. I bet most bought in the pre-sale with the intent of reselling right from the get-go. Let's hope they get stuck with the tickets.

    I already destroyed my ebay account in a similar operation. Just glad they never got my SSN and DOB or else I might've been screwed.

    I've just sent questions to the sellers asking why they aren't warning the purchasers about what Sam's Army's section is like. I don't give a damn about my eBay reputation since I've neither purchased nor sold anything on it.

    I already did that to the guy selling 8 tickets in the SA section.

    He never responded to any of the questions.

    I just got a response to the first guy I sent a message to. He wanted to know how this ticket could different from any other since it wasn't labeled as such. I just sent him a link to the Sam's Army web site.

    It looks like the winning bidder for his tickets is most likely a Mexico supporter. His name is futballer1.

    I sent one to gumby, too. I hope, at least, the buyers end up giving these a-holes negative eBay feedback.
