Are scalpers rampant in the US? Tickets for the midnight screening of Avengers 4 are sold for $50,000 each

It is expected that "Avengers 4: End Game" will be a hit, but the extent of its popularity is probably beyond the imagination of most people.

In China, we have news that "Avengers 4" set the record for the fastest pre-sale of RMB 100 million in Chinese film history, and the average ticket price for midnight shows in many theaters has exceeded RMB 200. In the United States, people who have already bought movie tickets for the premiere are also gearing up - not waiting to watch the movie, but waiting to sell the tickets at a high price like scalpers.

On eBay, a seller listed two tickets for "Avengers 4" for a total of $25,000. I'm not mistaken, it's $25,000, which is more than 160,000 RMB. The seller marked the lowest price for the two tickets as $15,000 (100,000 RMB). This price means "I won't sell it for less than $50,000." I really respect him as a real man.

Currently on eBay, the cheapest midnight show ticket is $750 (RMB 5,000) for 5 tickets, which is about $1,000 per ticket, and it can only be used in Illinois, not across provinces. There is a 3D movie ticket in New York for $7,500 (RMB 50,000), although no one has bid yet. Someone sold two movie tickets in New York for nearly $5,000 (RMB 33,000) for two tickets, and someone spent nearly $10,000 (RMB 60,000+) to buy two tickets, also in New York.

"Avengers 3: Infinity War" grossed a staggering $250 million in the U.S. in its first weekend, surpassing the previous record holder "Star Wars 7: The Force Awakens". After the release, the film's global total box office exceeded $2 billion, and it also became the fourth in the world's movie box office rankings (the top three are "Avatar", "Titanic" and "Star Wars 7"). Let us look forward to "Avengers 4" creating more miracles!
