Avengers: Endgame opening-night tickets for sale on eBay for $5,000
C/Net ^ | 4/3/19 | Gael F. Cooper

Do you want to see Avengers: Endgame on opening night? Do you really, really want to see Avengers: Endgame on opening night? Like, enough to give up the same amount of money you might spend on Super Bowl tickets, or a glorious international vacation, or several months rent, or a used car, or a kid's college fund, or your own damn retirement? If so, then make your way to eBay and throw your money at someone who lucked out and got their tickets right away on Tuesday. Who needs to retire anyway? As you likely heard, Avengers: Endgame tickets went on sale Tuesday and sold faster than it takes Iron Man to deliver a smart-aleck quip, which is to say, instantly. Not everyone could get the tickets they wanted though, in part thanks to AMC Theaters' site and mobile app choosing the exact wrong day to succumb to Thanos' snap. But plenty of people did get tickets, and an enterprising batch of them are selling their opening-night tickets on eBay, as often happens with hot tickets these days. Want to see it in New Jersey at the AMC Dine-In Essex Green 9? You and a pal can sit in the middle row on opening night and get a free poster to boot. It'll just cost you $15,000 to Buy It Now, or try your luck with an opening bid of $2,500. But maybe you want to see it in New York City, at the AMC 84th Street 6. Bidding begins at $4,999, please. But hey, the seller will ship them to you for an additional $4.81.

And here I got a pair of opening night tickets..... Naaaah. I ain't greedy. Still, it seems utterly foolish to blow that much money on tickets for a MOVIE....even if it is the most highly-anticipated movie of the decade.

I don’t even care in the slightest way about it.

I’ve almost seen all of the first movie, some of the second and that’s it.

"...it is the most highly-anticipated movie of the decade. "

I assume that means that Dianna Rigg and Patrick Macnee are back in their staring roles... Otherwise the tickets are worth zero to me...

You can price something at any random number, the tricky part is getting somebody to agree to that price.

I'm currently selling an old pair of sneakers for $140,000. Message me if interested.

I have no interest in seeing this trash, but if I had known the desire was going to be this high, I would have tried to buy some just to resell.

This is all just a PR stunt.

“Oh look! $5,000 movie tickets.” (Which no one is going to purchase, but it provides a nice clickbait article.)

What is Avengers: Endgame? Is this a movie?

Fly me and my wife there. Put us up in a 5 star. 3-4 fancy dinners. All expenses paid.

Sure. Here’s my 5 G’s.

Rumor has it Disney spent 10s of millions to buy tickets through Fandango to prop up the sales for Captain SJW (nee Marvel).

$5K to generate fake buzz is no big deal.

I’m sure the people asking Super Bowl prices like those mentioned in the article won’t find many takers, but I’m willing to bet opening night tickets in places like NYC will scalp in the hundreds. These Marvel fans are insane and love being able to say they saw these movies opening night. Since Endgame is apparently the last in some storyline, the hype is even crazier than normal.

Grown men watching other grown men run around in pajamas chasing bad guys in pajamas has to be the faggiest pastime ever invented.

I’m really bored of the MCS and am likely sitting out their 2019 and beyond movies.

While he does star in Marvel movies, Chris Pratt is a Christian and regularly gets attacked for it.

Chris Evans, who plays Captain America and comes from a very liberal family, is the one you are thinking of.
