As was the case in the semi-finals, dealers are trying to make gold deals with tickets to the QMJHL final between the Remparts and the Halifax Mooseheads. For the fifth game, which will be played Friday at the Videotron Center, some are posting tickets on resale sites eight times more expensive than what they paid to buy them on Sunday.
The 18,259 tickets on sale all sold in just 18 minutes on Sunday. The first and second meetings, which were played on Friday and Saturday, also had sold-out houses.
$595 for a pair
On the site billets.ca, Monday morning, there were individual tickets located behind the net at $259. However, they can be purchased in pairs, which means that those interested will have to pay some $595, whereas on the day of the sale, these places were retailing between $31 and $35 each.
But some dealers are more temperate. So, if you missed your shot, Sunday at noon, it is still possible to get tickets for $39 or $45 in the heights of the amphitheater. Hurry, though, as they are rare.
