Great story in Boston Globe Sunday Magazine this week about the ins and outs of high-stakes ticket brokering: "For weeks, Holzman has been buying up finals tickets from Celtics season ticket holders, paying far more than face value. At this moment, Ace Ticket holds nearly 250 seats for Tuesday's Game 6 - and if the Lakers force a seventh game on Thursday, Holzman has 250 seats to that one, too. He's spent roughly $750,000 acquiring the seats, using a line of credit secured by his home. So far, it's proved a good investment. As the Celtics are hitting the showers in LA, Ace's cheapest seats to the next game are listed at $659 each, and its best courtside tickets are each priced at $34,500. And with tip-off in just 45 hours, Holzman plans to keep buying, selling, and repricing right up until game time. This night, he stays at his computer until 3 a.m." [ Boston Globe Sunday Magazine]
